Tops Knives Frog Market Special XL Knife

The FMS XL, a new take on standard kitchen knife designs, is a great tool for use in the kitchen or at the campsite. Designed by Steven Dick based on a style of knife he observed during a trip to Vietnam, the Frog Market Special XL was inspired by the unique blades used by butchers and fish mongers to easily prepare a variety of meats and fish. The first design based on these knives is the original Frog Market Special, and this XL version adds additional heft and length to the already proven excellent design.

The FMS XL boasts all the aesthetics and function of the original, but in a larger package. Many TOPS users have incorporated this knife into their kitchen, camp kit, and even as an everyday carry (EDC) item. Crafted from 3/32" thick 1095 steel with the famous Black River Wash, the FMS XL offers both durability and a distinctive appearance. The comfortable, thick green canvas Micarta handles maintain a secure grip even when wet, and the knife comes with a Kydex sheath for easy storage, particularly for those who take it beyond the confines of the kitchen.

Whether slicing, dicing, or chopping meat and vegetables, this blade makes food preparation a breeze. "The Frog Market special and XL are both great knives. Almost every TOPS employee has the original in their kitchen, and the XL will quickly follow suit," said Craig Powell, General Manager of TOPS Knives.

In summary, the FMS XL is a versatile and efficient kitchen and outdoor knife, with a design inspired by the unique blades used by Vietnamese butchers and fish mongers. Its combination of durable construction, comfortable handle, and practical functionality make it a valuable addition to any kitchen or campsite.
