Product Description

The TOPS Badger Creek Bowie is a full-tang Bowie fixed blade designed by Leo Espinoza and handcrafted in Idaho — a 6.00" clip point blade on a 11.00" overall package built around a high full flat grind and Böhler N690Co stainless steel that sits at a practical hardness range for field use rather than the harder, more brittle end of the spectrum.

The blade is Böhler N690Co — the cobalt-enhanced variant of Böhler's N690 stainless, hardened to 56–58 HRC. The cobalt addition improves wear resistance and toughness at this hardness range compared to standard N690. At 6.00" on a clip point Bowie profile with a high full flat grind and 0.190" spine thickness, the blade is built for a wide range of cutting tasks — the high flat grind keeps the geometry efficient for slicing while the Bowie clip point provides a strong, usable tip. The tumbled/stonewash finish resists surface marking and gives the blade a matte field appearance.

The handle is contoured black canvas Micarta with tan liners — a combination that provides a secure, non-slip grip in wet conditions while the tan liner contrast gives the handle a layered visual reference at the edge of each scale. The full tang construction runs the steel the full length of the handle for maximum strength. The knife ships with a black Kydex sheath fitted with a leather dangler clip — a carry configuration that positions the knife lower on the belt for a more accessible draw angle under a pack or coat.
