TOPS TEX Creek Fixed Blade [TEX4-02]

TOPS TEX Creek Fixed Blade [TEX4-02]

A tribute to the men and women who hunt and fish in the Tex creek area in Southeast, Idaho. The Tex Creek wildlife management area includes 2 national forests and is home to an abundance of diverse wildlife and is accessible starting about 10 miles from the TOPS facility. Open range, high rugged mountains, waterways and large forests provide the hunters and fisherman a variety of diverse terrain to acquire elk, bear, mountain lion, wolf, moose, pheasant, turkey, quail, rabbit, duck, goose, steelhead and salmon. The fact that this Tex Creek area is so close to us enables our designers and makers the ability to field test in their own backyard. Since many of our staff grew up in this setting, they have ample opportunity to evaluate the use of our knives/tools under the most adverse conditions.

The Tex Creek XL fixed blade is a larger version of the original Tex Creek knife. It's designed as a rugged tribute to the men and women who hunt and fish in the Tex Creek area of southeast Idaho. TOPS Knives designer Leo Espinoza created a new blade finish for this knife. TOPS calls it the "black river wash." The uncoated 1095 steel blade has a darkened finish along the edge where the blade has been heat treated. It's a unique look that gives this knife a worn in look and ready-to-work attitude.
