TOP's F.A.X. Fast Axe

[Bladewolf]

Well, having gotten my second K5 Tactical Hawk, I was gonna lay off the all metals for a while, then I saw this...

It's got that great look that all the TOPS stuff has.
Real mean and real serious.

I like the looks of it. Will have to check it out..

1095? how thick is the stock?

1095? how thick is the stock?

What ever it is, I'm sure it's thick enough!
TOPS isn't known for making skimpy anything.
One thing that does concern me is what looks like a hollow ground on it.
Not too good, IMO, for an axe/hatchet/hawk of any sort.

Trying to find Spec's. Will post them if/when I do. I'm probably getting this one to T&E no matter what though. The profile suits my style, and it looks like TOP's is trying to balance on the fence between a breacher and a fighter, the age old hawk boundry. I'm a dedicated single edge hawk disciple, and believe that you can fight with a breacher, easier than you can breach with a fighter, so I'm curious to see if this is TOP's ultimate compromise.
