TOPS Frog Market Special FMS5-02 Overview
The TOPS Frog Market Special FMS5-02 is a thin fixed blade designed to help you slice, dice, and prep meat and fish in the kitchen or at camp. The TOPS Frog Market Special FMS5-02 uses a 5.25 inch 1095 carbon steel blade with a Tungsten Cerakote finish that delivers exceptional slicing performance and corrosion resistance while keeping the blade smooth for clean cuts. At only 0.060 inch thick, this knife is the thinnest blade TOPS has produced. Because of this, it becomes a versatile tool for your kitchen prep, hunting, fishing, or camping kit instead of just a specialty blade that stays in the drawer.
Wide Heel Design and Ergonomic Micarta Handle
In addition, this TOPS knife features a wide heel and steep curve that allows for deep shearing cuts and excellent slicing geometry. The thin blade stock provides added flexibility for working around bones when processing chicken, pork, or fish. Moreover, the tan canvas Micarta handle gives a secure, ergonomic grip that remains comfortable during extended prep sessions. Furthermore, its 9.50 inch overall length and 3.5 oz weight make it capable for serious kitchen and field tasks. At the same time, it stays light and agile enough for precision work. For carry, the knife includes a black Kydex sheath with rotating spring steel clip that provides secure attachment and easy access.
