SHOP CASE KNIVESRugged in its simplicity and refined in its detail, the Tex Creek Slipjoint from TOPS Knives proves that a folder doesn’t need bulk to deliver real capability. At just over five inches open, it stays compact for discreet carry yet handles everyday tasks with ease, whether you’re slicing an apple, trimming cord, or opening a package.
The blade is crafted from M390 super steel, known for exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance, so it’s ready when the work gets tougher. The slipjoint mechanism adds classic charm with smooth, reliable action, while the OD-green G10 handles offer dependable grip even when conditions turn slick. With no pocket clip, it rides comfortably in your pocket or sheath until it’s time to put it to work.
What sets this knife apart is how it blends traditional feel with modern craftsmanship. Designed by Leo Espinoza and built in Italy by Fox Knives, it pairs old-school slipjoint character with precise fit-and-finish and high-end materials. Its lightweight 1.3-ounce build keeps carry effortless without compromising strength or performance.
The premium brown leather sheath completes the package, adding durability and a refined touch.
