Tops Earth Skills Knife
Code: TPESK01Related products
Product detailed description
The Earth Skills knife was designed by Matt Graham, who is much more than just a "survivalist". He is an athlete - ultramarathons, triathlons, climbing, etc., a martial artist - of several styles, and an expert in primitive weapons, hunting, and shelters. He has done more "time in the field" than almost anyone else.
In keeping with the same theme as his first draft through TOPS (Little Bugger). It is a thin TOPS with a modified Scandi grind, tumble finish and brown canvas Micarta handle scales. This one comes with a deep brown leather holster that Matt designed based on some old Indian holster styles. It is designed for cross draw, below the belt, towards the back of the carrier.

In late 1998, the TOPS Knives brand was founded with the goal of creating some of the highest quality knives on the market. These knives are tools that are designed and built using the extensive knowledge and real life experience of many users in the military, armed forces, outdoor professions and martial arts. Specifically, designers with backgrounds ranging from Navy Seals to Airborne Rangers, from martial arts instructors to survival experts, and from SWAT team members to Native weapons experts were collaborated with. TOPS has a designer from almost every background that uses hard-core knives.
All TOPS knives are handcrafted in a sweatshop in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, USA.
