All TOPS fixed blades are designed and handcrafted at TOPS Knives' own facility in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, USA. The TOPS Pasayten is designed by Steven Dick, this is a good sized knife at 10" overall and the combination of treated steel blade and micarta handle result in this outstandingly solid knife. The Pasayten comes with a quality Kydex heavy duty sheath with spring steel clip, so this knife can always be at hand.
A well known editor of Tactical Knives Magazine (with a great set of credentials in both the military and as a professional outdoorsman) took a great deal of time and his years of experience to design a true multipurpose camp knife.
In an article in Tactical Knives Magazine in May of 2003, the author wrote:
"The knife is ideal for what it is designed to be: an all-purpose backcountry tool. Used the Pasayten to split kindling, prepare every dinner for 10 nights, cut bannock at lunch, cleaned fish and cut line, it found its way into many hands and was the knife of choice when a job was to be done. The Pasayten is a no last-ditch survival knife, yet is stout enough to split kindling yet delicate enough to fillet fish. TOPS sheath has a swivel belt clip which offers the option of horizontal carry, perfect for a 200 pound stern man. All purpose, practical and ultimately useful knives that truly work!"
