TOPS Nata Knife TNAT-02
Introducing the TOPS Nata Knife, a remarkable fusion of traditional Japanese design and American ingenuity. This fixed blade knife, inspired by the classic Nata hatchet, is an exceptional bushcraft tool that excels in chopping, cutting, and a variety of outdoor tasks.
Before power tools, the Nata specialised as a versatile gardening tool in Japan, used for pruning, clearing brush, and other essential tasks. The TOPS Nata Knife brings this functionality into the modern age with American grit and practical design. The wide rectangular blade, with its substantial mass, delivers superior chopping power along the entire edge, making it more effective than most knives of its size. The canted handle further enhances this chopping efficiency, providing excellent control and leverage.
Unlike traditional Japanese tools that often feature a chisel or single-beveled edge, the TOPS Nata Knife has a standard flat grind on both sides, ensuring reliable performance in a wide range of applications. As with all TOPS fixed blade knives, the Nata is crafted with a full tang construction, ensuring maximum strength and durability.
The contoured handles offer a comfortable and secure grip, while the simple leather sheath allows for quick and easy access whilst being a secure carry. Whether you're at home, gardening, camping or out in the wilderness, the TOPS Nata Knife is the ideal companion for any chopping or cutting task.
Note: TOPS Survival Whistle included.
