The hunt for perfection.There are many great knives, but few transcend their identity as tools to become something truly special.

It was designed by custom knifemaker and former professional hunting guide Russ Kommer and heat treated in TOPS Knives owner Leo Espinoza’s personal shop. It pairs a full-tang Damascus steel blade from Vegas Forge with a natural walnut handle finished in a mesmerizing luster. And with only 200 made, it’s an instant collector’s item.
