    The edges on all TOPS "scandi" knives do not terminate at primary grind planes intersection. There is always a microbevel, which can actually can be quite thick, it varies from one piece to another.

    I've got one of these, I've had it for around 6 month's, and it has been an outstanding little "back up" camping knife, to my tops B.O.B! I agree with you hole heartedly, in regards to the urban applications of this little blade! WAJK... Thank you, again sir.

  • @tybassett
    @tybassett 9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    definitely a secondary bevel! that's why tops calls it a modified scandi grind!!

  • @BParker55
    @BParker55 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    It actually does have a secondary bevel but it's quickly remedied

    I actually have a Boker Plus Rambler with a stag handle that I use for cleaning game and it's my favorite knife. I'm really liking the Tops MSK 2.5 because of the Scandi grind. I may have to buy one.

    • @WeAllJuggleKnives
      @WeAllJuggleKnives  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Awesome, I have the regular Boker Rambler and as soon as the Stag version came out I wanted that one too, it's a small knife done right.

  • @machodeth4822
    @machodeth4822 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    That bad boy seems like a sweet tool. Not much into the neck knives yet but maybe I should start paying more attention. I live in a state where they don't give a crap what you carry so less a concern for me but that doesn't mean I roll around with a Rambo knife either. Great vid as always man, keep it real

    I like this little knife. It's a side companion to my other full size fix blades. Take the top coating off so you can strike a flint lol

  • @elbowroomtube
    @elbowroomtube 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Israel. How do you sharpen your knives? There seems to be so many different systems out there. Could you break down the advantages and disadvantages of the different systems including stones and maybe do a video demonstration??? It would seem to me that a Scandi grind would always be far superior to blades with secondary bevels, but I'd be very reluctant to try and sharpen it myself.

    • @drivingmuffin
      @drivingmuffin 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I ususally sharpen my scandi knives on ceramic bench stones from spyderco, works great! I actually find it easier to sharpen scandi knives than the other edge types I have. :)

    Awwww, How cute... It might fit my hand better than some other knives I use. I don't know. I've kinda gotten use to using handles that are generally roomy for my grip.

    • @WeAllJuggleKnives

      KainusGulch It is definitely super cute. (Now no man shall buy one ever again).

  • @paulie4x1

    Say Heah Israel, lately I went from a 3knife carry, well I still do but I changed the look, Instead of knives I went with a saw and hatchet, lately I wanted to give my go to long knife a rest, so I got a new combo for the brambles in the bush I go in, Yup and you helped, I got the Potbelly and the Parangatang, then I started to take inventory as to which smaller knife I would use or get incase I need a smaller knife, I thought of my thinned down tan handle and polished Blind Horse Bushcrafter look's alot classier IMO than the regular handle and not polished, and I thought of my tan handle 3V Skookum Bush Tool, and my Tweeners (Beckers) which also came with tan handles, I have all three and changing one of them is a piece of cake, because most of my knives have black handles if I have a choice (G-10), and here around my neck was my answer (EDC), my M.S.K. with a Tan handle I won, so Yeah, the Potbelly is supposed to be a 1knife carry do (almost) all kind of knife, it does remind me of the Habilis Bush Tool except without a anvil front, well I'm sticking with the Top's Mini Scandi Knife, I still will neck carry it, and I think it should compliment my Potbelly and the Parangatang, I'm excited to give them a whirl.

    Are there any tricks to sharpen tops convex scandi grind?

  • @paulie4x1
    @paulie4x1 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Say Heah, Reporting a progress on the Top's Mini Scandi 2.5. I find it to be a Aqesome little knife, especially with fine carving..The size is similar to a folder, but I find its a stronger type of knife since it's a full tang and no weak spot at the joint. But the shape of the blade is a awesome to fine carve, Yeah, it makes a good divot and it's small enough where you can really get closer to the tip allowing alot of control without worrying that it will snap shut on your fingers, I'm really enjoying teaming it up with my Potbelly that I'm using as a 1knife option. Good review, Thanx. ,, ,,

  • @paulie4x1
    @paulie4x1 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have this Mini Scandi Knive, and I use it as my EDC, works great, and it being a full tang, I prefer it over a slip joint, it's lite, and for its size, it's a pretty strong knife, very easy to wear, even under a t-shirt, I would recommend this knife to everybody, it is a very useful EDC knife too, even though I'm a 3-4 knife carry guy when I go into the bush, it's so lite, and it's around my neck, I don't know it's there, for instance, when I take my go to set, my Rodent Solution, Ratmandu, ( by the way Israel, I have the Ratmandu in the INFI Steel too, ) Rodent 9, if I take a 4knife carry, I just add my Rodent 7, the Rodent Solution is used akot, but simetimes, I need to do something more delicate, and your right Israel, it's great for making traps, but, I really luv wearing it as my EDC, and it's around my neck alot, take care, great video as usual, it is a very handy knife.

    @PowerMadHeadBanger 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Excuse my language but I like neck knives more than Napoleon liked pussy! Just joking. Yeah I knew it would be a great neck knife when I saw the thumbnail because bushcraft neck knives tend to be of high quality, very traditional and stronger than tactical neck knives to withstand hard use. Any chance you been watching the nozenuz channel here on TH-cam. I have been seen this knife on his channel lately.
