SHOP CASE KNIVESThe TOPS Mini Scandi Knife 2.5 is a compact, high-performance fixed blade built for those who demand reliability in the field or on the move. Drawing inspiration from the traditional Finnish Sami knife, this rugged tool delivers the proven utility of a full-sized Scandi grind in a portable, easy-to-carry package. Designed by Leo Espinoza and made in the USA, the Mini Scandi Knife stands out with its functional design and exceptional craftsmanship.
At the core of this knife is a 3-inch drop point blade crafted from 1095 high carbon steel, known for its toughness and ease of sharpening. The blade features TOPS’ signature black traction coating, offering added protection against corrosion and reducing light reflection in tactical or outdoor settings. The Scandi grind makes it ideal for controlled carving, feather-sticking, and bushcraft tasks, giving you precision and power in one streamlined tool.
The full-tang construction ensures maximum strength, while the black linen Micarta handle delivers a secure, textured grip—even when wet or gloved. The ergonomics are thoughtfully engineered for long-term comfort and consistent control. Stainless steel Torx hardware and a brass lanyard tube complete the handle, adding both functionality and visual contrast.
Weighing just 2 ounces and measuring 6.13 inches overall, the Mini Scandi is built for easy everyday carry. Whether worn around the neck with the included black Kydex sheath and ball chain or tucked into a pack or belt kit, its low-profile design makes it a dependable companion for both urban and backcountry environments.
Built with field-ready durability and compact convenience, the TOPS Mini Scandi Knife 2.5 offers the performance serious users need in a size that won’t weigh them down. From camp chores to survival situations, this knife is designed to handle a wide range of cutting tasks with confidence. It's a modern tool rooted in traditional design, engineered for real-world use.
