 THE POWER EAGLE-12  IS A HAND OPERATED FORCE MULTIPLIER...

BACKGROUND:

FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SURVIVING UTILIZING
MACHETES AS A SOURCE OF INCOME, FOOD, SHELTER AND A SELF
DEFENSE TOOL.

TOPS DESIGNER LEO ESPINOZA TOOK THAT TOOL AND PREFACE,
COMBINED WITH A KUKURI AND BOLO, AND PUT IT ON STEROIDS
WITH A HIGHLY FLEXIBLE IMPACT RESISTANT STEEL..
AND VERY COMFORTABLE INDUSTRUCTABLE HANDLE ERGONOMICS,
SO THAT THE BUSHMAN, EXPLORER OR OUTDOORSMAN CAN USE
IT ALL DAY LONG, WITHOUT HANDLE FATIGUE.

WHETHER USING IT TO CLEAR A TRAIL, BUILD SHELTER, OR
FOR MILITARY OR SURVIVAL APPLICATIONS, THIS IS DEFINITELY
AN IMPORTANT AND EASY TOOL TO USE. HACKING AND WHACKING,
IT MAKES SHORT WORK OF MOST ANYTHING THAT GETS IN ITS WAY.
HOWEVER, THE LIMP WRISTED NEED NOT APPLY,
THIS IS A REAL MAN'S TOOL.

THIS IS NOT YOUR NORMAL HACKING HAMBURGER FLIPPER,
THERE IS A WHOLE LOTTA KNIFE\ HERE.!
POSSIBLY THE MOST EFFECTIVE DEFOLIENT SINCE NAPALM !

THIS LARGE KNIFE IS TRULY A MIX OF THE BEST OF TWO HISTORIC AND TRUSTED KNIVES, IN BOTH DESIGN AND ACTION.               

THE KUKRI AND THE BOLO.

THE KUKRI…

MANY BELIEVE THAT THE PRESENT  ‘KUKRI’ DESIGN ORIGINATED ABOUT 2,500 YEARS AGO.  THE CURVED DESIGN AS IT IS KNOWN TODAY, WAS CREATED IN THE MOUNTAINS OF NEPAL…FOR WORK AND FOR BATTLE.  THE KNIFE BECAME SO POPULAR IN THE 1800,  THAT GHURKA HILL TRIBES WHEN ENCOUNTEREING THE BRITISH INVADERS,  GAVE THE BRITISH SOME VERY FIERCE RESISTANCE.  THE GHURKAS CAME OUT OF THE JUNGLES AND CUT OFF HEADS AND LIMBS OF THE BRITISH SOLDIERS.

THE BRITISH FINALLY WITHDREW, BUT WISELY EMPLOYED THE GHURKAS LATER TO ASSIST BRITISH TROOPS.  THEY EVEN USED THE GHURKAS IN FIGHTING THE GERMANS IN WW I.  TODAY, GHURKAS STAND ALONG SIDE OF BRITISH TROOPS IN IRAQ AND STILL CARRY THEIR KUKRI KNIVES.

THE BOLO…

A BOLO IS A LARGE CUTTING TOOL SIMILAR TO A MACHETE..USED PARTICULARLY IN THE JUNGLES OF INDONESIA AND THE PHILIPPINES.  THE PRIMARY USE IS FOR AGRICULTURE AND TRAIL BLAZING.  THE BOLO IS ALSO USED AS A MILITARY WEAPON..BUILT WITH A SOLID FULL TANG AND A LARGE BLADE THAT BOTH CURVES AND WIDENS AT ITS TIP.  THIS MOVES THE CENTER OF GRAVITY AS FAR FORWARD AS POSSIBLE, GIVING THE KNIFE EXTRA MOMENTUM FOR CHOPPING.  SO CALLED

‘JUNGLE BOLOS’ WERE INTENDED FOR COMBAT RATHER THAT AGRICULTURE

TOPS KNIVES HAS TAKEN WHAT IT CONSIDERS THE BEST POINTS OF EACH KNIFE, WHICH HAS INCREASED ITS HANDLING ABILITY TO THAT OF A FAST MACHETE.

ALL IN ALL,  OUR FIELD TESTS HAVE INDICATED THAT THIS KNIFE COMBINATION, CAN BE A GREAT ASSET TO A FIELD OPERATOR,

OR OUTDOORSMAN,  IN HEAVY BRUSH OR JUNGLE ENVIORNMENTS.

TOPS KNIVES… FOR GUYS WHO GO…OUTSIDE THE WIRE….
