The **TOPS Knives American Trailer Maker** is a remarkable outdoor knife, designed by Jason Breedon. He meant this knife to be an all-round outdoor tool. To be used as a robust survival knife, but also as a small axe for heavy-duty chopping work. Everyone who regularly goes out into the wild understands the use of the ATM.


At TOPS strength and solidity are key. As a result the TOPS Knives American Trail Maker is made from 1095 carbon steel. A robust type of steel that can handle its own. At the same time it is also easy to sharpen to make sure you can maintain it out in the field. The only thing you need to pay attention to is the fact that 1095 carbon steel is not stainless. So be careful when you come into contact with moisture, salt and acids. Although the matt-black traction coating also helps with this.


The handle is made from micarta. A solid material made from linen and synthetic resin. If offers you enough grip even in wet circumstances. The micarta fibres namely inflate a bit for a little additional grip.


The TOPS ATM comes with a solid kydex sheath with rotatable steel belt clip. To make sure the heavy knife doesn't fall from the sheath TOPS has enhanced it with a solid retention system. Two protruding pins on both sides of the blade give the sheath the necessary grip. This does, however, mean that at first taking the knife from the sheath takes some getting used to. You need to pull it down a little. Otherwise you can't easily remove it from the sheath.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

We like to highlight what use the manufacturer had in mind, or what we believe the knife is suited for

Best use

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

molle_compatible

MOLLE is a mounting system that allows you to attach sheaths and other accessories to backpacks. With this specification we indicate whether a product is already MOLLE-compatible by default. [Want to learn more MOLLE](/en/ct/what-is-molle.htm)?

MOLLE-compatible

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).
