TOPS Knives Pit Stop 3 Black 1095 Tan Canvas Micarta

The Pit Stop 3 from TOPS Knives USA is an excellent candidate for your next pack, trail or neck knife. It’s a multi-use, lightweight comfortable carry with a utility-focused blade and built-in bottle opener for when you call it a day. This one can go wherever you go.

The Blade: The capable hunter’s point is ideal for skinning, slicing or piercing chores and so much more. It’s full tang design has a protective black traction coating that’s non-reflective and easy to clean. Built from easy-sharpening tool steel with an ample (nearly 2 inches) amount of jimping on the spine for controlled cutting. An excellent choil keeps your finger protected and crafted to work.

The Handle: Comfy, contoured tan canvas micarta handle scales are secured to the tang over red fiber liners. The Pit Stop’s hidden gem lies near the butt end of the spine. This bottle opener is cleverly placed to not get in the way of working, but to serve you when the work is done. A handy brass lanyard tube wraps up construction.

The Sheath: A black Kydex sheath is included with attached TOPS whistle and injection molded nylon clip. 

1095 High Carbon Tool Steel: Highly popular, simple carbon steel. Used extensively by both production and custom knife makers. Low abrasive wear due to low carbide content but very tough and easy to sharpen. Not corrosion resistant and will rust without proper care.
