"One Life...One Knife"® That's TOP's motto, simply
because in the real world of tactical extremes, we are
issued only one life. And since your life may
realistically depend on your knife, you owe it to
yourself to get the very best.
More than 100 years of Special Ops "Know How". Unlike
some companies that import knives and attach "Special
OPS" style names to their products, TOPS took exactly
the opposite approach. They enlisted the support of 11
Operators with backgrounds in the Military, Law
Enforcement, Outdoor Professions, and the Martial Arts,
with service around the world who used their combined
knowledge, experience and operational know-how at the
"sharp end" to design the ultimate knives suitable for
virtually any tactical purpose.
Tested to the extremes in the mean streets of LA; the
plains of Africa; and the jungles of Peru; TOPS KNIVES
are the result of the unique cooperative effort. Our
Team is comprised of individuals from: SEAL Team 3,
Command Master Chief; Columbus- Officer Street Survival
Instructor; Special Forces A-Team; Rhodesian SAS, Selous
Scouts; Phoenix S.W.A.T. Team; Marine Force Recon;
Atlanta-Marshall SWAT; Special OPS Groups; Tacoma-
Street Defense Instructor; Airborne Rangers; Martial
Arts Instructors.
Add
to the array the skills of one knife maker, a former teacher
of physics and chemistry who applied his scientific and
technical know-how to perfecting the metallurgy, balance and
cutting angles. Also an Outdoor Educator, who designs and
field tests new products.
TOPs Knives have been requested and deployed in many parts
of the world. Numerous individuals who are active Field
Operators are using TOPs knives and have been reporting top
performance and reliability from their TOPs Knives. |
