The Operator 7 is huge! TOPS Knives went well with heavy steel and handles to make a hefty, well-balanced knife. It also has those classic American fighting knife aesthetics that make it look as good as it will perform.

Made out of 5/16 "thick 1075, the differentially heat-treated blade with a very strong thorn. The entire handle is also over 1 "thick once assembled to fill out the user's hand much like an ax or hatchet handle would.

Because it is a tool, it's got to be comfortable. It's made for the men that do not back down. This knife will find its place with door kickers, survivalists, and weekend warriors alike. The rounded handles and hand guards make it a joy to use and the finger choil allows the user great precision for finer cuts. The 6.5 "of cutting edge will help you get the work done." The included Kydex sheath with dangler attachment makes it easy to carry into whatever territory you find yourself.
