American Bilton - TOPS MINI Eagle

[snowwolf]

Hi guys,

I just ran across this item and couldn't resist.

TOPS MINI Eagle
O/A Length: 5 1/2”
Blade Length: 3”
Thickness: 1/4”
Steel: 1095 High carbon Steel RC 56-58
Handle: Black Linen Micarta
Sheath: Kydex
Blade Color: Black Traction Coating

It a pretty nice KLO (Karda Like Object) or BLO (Bilton like object)

Looks really handy and well designed Being TOPS, probably means it's too rich for my blood. I guess i'll have to make due with the 6 or so biltons.

Do love the size and shape. TOPS makes a nice product, though

Looks pretty bombproof man! That would make a good Karda with one of your Bonecutters:thumbup: Might have to widen the hole though.

You bet,

And you'r right Jake, well designed but not too expensive.
Although the handle is kind of only 2 fingers, its relatively large diameter procures a surprisingly good grip. It can be hold in few different and very effective ways.

You could add a finger to the grip by extending the scales like you did the psycho Bawan....uh I mean the psychedelic Bawanna Bowie your friend made.

Hmmmm, interesting - The scales are not removable, but certainly worth considering.
Meanwhile, I also like the fact that it is extremely compact with its OAL 5"-1/2
