The Silent Hero is a versatile fixed blade knife designed by Anton Du Plessis. It is perfect for bushcraft, survival, and tactical purposes. Unlike larger knives that are only good for chopping, the Silent Hero is sized to handle smaller tasks as well. The blade is made of 1095 steel with an urban camo finish, following the TOPS Knives style. The handle features smooth linen Micarta scales, providing a reliable grip in all weather conditions. There are two lanyard holes, one in the handle and another in the finger guard, allowing the option to attach a safety cord or lash it to a spear if needed. The durable black leather sheath complements the knife's design and securely holds it in place with a single snap loop around the finger guard. Anton Du Plessis, the Chief of Operations for the Specialized Interdiction Unit of the Silent Heroes Foundation, designed the Silent Hero. His goal was to create a knife that could withstand the demands of his work combating the poaching crisis in South Africa. TOPS Knives is committed to supporting the Silent Heroes Foundation, and a portion of all sales of this knife goes towards their efforts.
