The blade has a 2.75 inch cutting edge, a non reflective Black Traction Coat, a notched thumb rest and large choil for secure grip. The Street Scalpel 2.0 has full tang construction for strength; black canvas Micarta scales, and an exposed pommel with lanyard hole. A black Kydex sheath with Beta Loop (for multiple carry options) is included. The TOPS Knives Street Scalpel 2.0 has an overall length of 7.0 inches, and it weighs 3.1 ounces; 4.6 ounces with the sheath. Made in the USA.
From the TOPS website: The original Street Scalpel has been around for quite a few years now. There are a number of reasons that LEOs, active duty military, and everyday citizens love it. Its concealability is one of the main reasons, but it's also extremely stout and strong for its size, so it can handle some tough tasks.
Take all of the positives of the original, make it slightly lighter, and reconfigure the handle, and you have the Street Scalpel 2.0. Made using 3/16" stock instead of 1/4", the 2.0 will be a better slicer, but still have plenty of strength for those tougher jobs. The sheath has been changed to allow multiple carry options including appendix, IWB, OWB, scout, or any way else you can think of by rearranging the included beta loop straps. Whether you're looking for a strong EDC fixed blade, or a combatives knife to help get you out of a bad situation, the Street Scalpel 2.0 is up to the task.
