Tops El Pionero Blackout Edition
Code: TPELPO02Related products
Product detailed description
Ed Calderon's experience in counter-narcotics, organized crime investigations and executive protection, coupled with his unique ability to recognize the talents and skills in all of his associates, has ensured that what he has to offer in terms of training and knowledge is in high demand by all branches around the world.
As a result, his training methods are being applied by units in Europe, America and as far afield as Australia and New Zealand.
El Pionero has many features that have proven to work well for Ed in knife practice. The finger dimple is his signature, which he originally learned from his mother, and is designed to make it easy to tell where the blade is oriented by where that dimple is felt.
As an added bonus, it helps when pulling out a knife that has been stuck in something and may be somewhat jammed.
The false blade also helps when a knife is stuck, where it will penetrate the material more easily, and subsequently be easier to pull out as well, as the thick blade is more wedged in.
The Kydex sheath is low-profile and can be easily customized by the end user for carrying in multiple configurations.

In late 1998, the TOPS Knives brand was founded with the goal of creating some of the highest quality knives on the market. These knives are tools that are designed and built using the extensive knowledge and real life experience of many users in the military, armed forces, outdoor professions and martial arts. Specifically, designers with backgrounds ranging from Navy Seals to Airborne Rangers, from martial arts instructors to survival experts, and from SWAT team members to Native weapons experts were collaborated with. TOPS has a designer from almost every background that uses hard-core knives.
All TOPS knives are handcrafted in a sweatshop in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, USA.
