TOPS Silent Hero [HERO-03]

TOPS Silent Hero [HERO-03]

The Silent Hero was designed by Anton Du Plessis, who at the time of the design was the Chief of Operations for the Specialized Interdiction Unit of the Silent Heroes Foundation. His task was to combat the poaching crisis in South Africa. This knife had to be durable, versatile, and able to fill Anton's needs in the field, which affected the design of the blade and the handle. It will definitely hold up to hard use. And with a weight of only 12 oz, you'll be able to use the knife without getting fatigued too quickly.

The Silent Hero is an Anton Du Plessis designed fixed blade that is very versatile, making it an ideal knife for bushcraft, survival, and tactical purposes. It's not so large that it can only be used to chop, but is also sized to complete smaller tasks. Built in TOPS Knives fashion, the Silent Hero has a 1095 steel blade with a sniper gray finish, which has a darkened finish along the edge where the blade has been heat treated. The handle is fitted with Rocky Mountain Tread pattern linen Micarta scales for an uncompromising all-weather grip. Two lanyard holes, one in the handle along with another in the finger guard, give the user the option to add a safety cord or for lashing to a spear when the situation warrants it.
