Hi to all,
does anybody know anything about discontinued, early production (2000? year) TOPS Recon Patrol Leader knife? It was a modern "replica" of Randall, CISO, SOG Recon bowie knife from Vietnam era. The knife had micarta handle bolted - screwed on the blade like any knife with leather washers handle (Ka-bar...). It had dark yellow hand guard, probably made from brass and aluminium butt cap. Sheath was from kydex. There is no any info on the internet that I could find :-(
I know some indexes which were used to advertise this knife here in Czech republic, Europe: R.P.L., Recon Patrol Leader, RPL66. Knife was serialized and marked on the blade only (first markings which TOPS used on their knives).
I am looking for any informations, tests, reviews, pictures and stories about this knife.
Thank you very much
Jiri
p.s. sorry for my English
