MSG Kim Breed 5th Special Forces RET., is a notable knife maker as well as an authority on Blades. In an article appearing in Blade Magazine in March of 2002 - "Knives At War - Blades In Afghanistan" he wrote:
"Pieces such as the Ranger's Edge from TOPS Knives are among those being taken to Afghanistan by the author's buddies from the 5th Special Forces." This is a double-edged, fine crafted tool with an outstanding pry tip extending from the handle, helping you to avoid prying with the point of the knife. A definite "will carry" in harms way."
The Ranger's Edge is a must-have for men and women who are in harm's way on a regular basis. It's great for defense or attack, and good for some EDC and utility tasks as well.
