TOPS Knives Cuma Kage

On closer inspection, particularly remarkable and eye-catching products often conceal an extraordinary story, and it is a blessing that there are companies like Tops that dare to make a product out of such stories beyond the mainstream. Since childhood, martial arts specialist Sijo Waysun Johnny Tsai has been fascinated by the game, comic and movie character of the Ninja Snake Eyes from Hasbro's GI Joe franchise. Inspired by Snake Eyes' Katana, Sijo has been thinking for just as long about an optimal functional sword that can be used both as a weapon and as a jungle sword and thus as a full-fledged replacement for axe and machete. The result is the two-handed Cuma Kage with an overall length of 24" (61 cm), which Sijo determined after years of training to be the optimal length for swords, truncheons and batons. The blade, widened in the front third and made of shock-resistant 1095 carbon steel, has a perfect balance and features 3-stage hollow grooves set off from each other. The handle scales of double-layered canvas micarta in the colour combination of black and brown are attached to the robust flat blade with four hexagon socket screws. The machete gets its full practicality from a precisely fitting Kydex sheath with a dangler. - The comic artist Robert Atkins even uses the Cuma Kage as a model for Snake Eye's sword in the new GI Joe comics.
