Back Bite Serrated

For the tactical professional who cannot afford to compromise on their primary defensive tool, there is no room for multi-tools that try to do everything. When you are in a high-stress close-quarters engagement, you need a dedicated instrument built for one purpose: survival. The TOPS Knives Back Bite Serrated is that single-minded tool, built strictly to defend, strike, and keep you secure when the situation turns critical.

Designed by tactical specialist Colin Despins and based on Russian martial arts principles, this blade is built around a simple bio-mechanical reality: the human pulling motion is naturally stronger than pushing. The original Back Bite design has been trusted by operators since 2010. This new, fully serrated variation takes that battle-proven design and adds aggressive serrations on both the main and top edges to ensure continuous defensive coverage on both the thrust and the reset.

Its performance comes from these key design elements:

• Fully Serrated Main and Top Edges: Delivers a devastating tearing action rather than just a standard cut, creating wider wound channels and maximizing combat efficiency during rapid movements.
• Concave Strike Face: Optimized for highly effective trapping and hooking maneuvers, allowing you to use your body's natural pulling strength to control and overcome an opponent.
• Multi-Grip Ergonomic G10 Handle: The red and black G10 handle scales provide complete comfort and slip-resistant traction in multiple grip positions, letting you orient the edges to match any tactical situation.
• Aggressive 1095 Carbon Steel Blade: Built from tough 1095 steel with a black traction coating, providing exceptional durability and reliable strength when subject to extreme stress.

For over a decade, tactical professionals, law enforcement officers, and elite operators have trusted TOPS to build tools that work when everything else fails. The Back Bite Serrated carries that responsibility with pride, manufactured in the USA to the highest standards. This pure, uncompromised defensive tool ensures you remain ready, protected, and in control of the fight.

Please Note: This blade is built from high carbon 1095 steel, which requires dedicated maintenance to prevent rust. Keep the blade clean and completely dry after exposure to moisture, and regularly apply a light coat of high-quality oil. Because of the specialized serrated edges, use a dedicated ceramic or diamond sharpening rod to maintain the teeth, and check your local laws regarding double-edged tactical fixed blades.
