The TOPS Viper Scout is an elegant and highly functional fixed blade. Designed by Leo Espinoza, it was created for hunters, campers, and hikers. Furthermore, it’s a lighter, thinner knife that retains TOPS’ legendary strength. It is, consequently, a proficient and trustworthy companion in the field.

This knife is ideal for general outdoor use, field dressing, and backpacking. It performs a wide range of tasks with ease. Because of its 0.130″ thick 1095 steel, it’s a fantastic slicer, yet its wide blade ensures inherent strength. Moreover, the Black Traction Coating protects the blade from corrosion.

The handle features striking Red/Black G10 scales. These scales are milled with TOPS’ Rocky Mountain Tread, which provides a secure and comfortable grip in all situations. This knife is, therefore, both good-looking and highly practical.

This VPS-R2 is a superb all-around outdoor knife. However, if you are looking for a more compact tactical blade, you might also consider the TOPS Delta Unit 3. Both knives, nevertheless, are built to perform. You can find more details at the official TOPS Knives website.

Additionally, the TOPS Viper Scout includes a high-quality leather sheath. This sheath is designed to carry the knife close to the body for an easily accessible draw. Ultimately, this is a tool that looks as good as it performs.
