Wow. Not bad, at all!! If that first saw groove wasn't so deep, the tip probably would have lasted longer. You sure earned your beers in these temperture JoeX 👍🍺🍺CHEERZZ 🍺🍺
Jepp, ist’s a rasp… And of course the Notch Bear the Tip is Not so useful I Saw it Used to grap a wire hanger of s Cooking pot. Not a goog idea to Use a hardened cutting Edge so close to the Fire
Seeing this performance from 154CM is shocking. 154CM is far from being a tough steel. The best conclusion I can draw is that anything can be super tough if you make it short and thick enough.
Great test here today! More and more I'm starting to see how blade design and geometry and impart success to these tests, perhaps at the expense of usability. I think a great steel / heat treat can allow a blade to be slightly more usable but still not sacrifice durability. The recent Messerfieber tests point to a good balance here I think. Can't wait to see them ship to USA!
Tops knife survive, what do you know? Tip broke perhaps it was because of the spine serrations I dont know. I dont like Tracker knives but this did perform very well, so its good. Thanks for another episode of Joe x show 😊
Hahaha, I bought a Tops only for the whistle, I throw the knife in a box, and I use the whistle every day. I'm very happy, a great whistle. Joe, you forgot to test it! I want to see if it is indestructible.
Joe is pretty dam strong to break the tip! Even tho this version of the tracker is barely smaller than the original. I bought the original TB Tracker instead of the SXB because of Joe. - I took the TBT to Idywild California and it survived work that made a K-Bar Kukri handle as loose as Karen's rotten UN-glory hole 😱 - The TBT also came in handy to chop branches out of bushes (edit* or thickets I meant) where your hand doesn't have much space to strike with bigger choppers and the weight is perfect to chop small branches off the bigger branch that you just chopped and to make spears (I just destroyed a possum hiding in my engine with a spear) - The lateral force impact resistance to use as a mallet seems to be very strong as well - The ergonomics to me seems like feather sticking would be more comfortable than the SXB but I still regret NOT getting the SXB instead for it's evidently higher self defense potential and more chopping power - However I cannot seem to sharpen the low sabre grind on the TBT with a ceramic file, so field sharpening would suck for me - I currently took the TBT out of my hiking repertoire for TOPS EL CHETE and or CONDOR PLAN A Bowie and the COLD STEEL SR-1 LITE - I give MUCH respect to Joe! --- I could have snapped my leg when I stumbled over a loose boulder at Idywild last spring but it miraculously rocked back the other way instead of collapsing on the side of my knee and pinning me to another rock --- so AMEN about JESUS saving our IRON RODS 👍🏼
The only Tops I have is a T2 Tracker. Carbon steel and a little smaller than this one. Was a present. Weird little knife. 154 cm is one of my favorite stainless steels. Did really good!
Great video Joe X! 👍🏻🔪. I have all the TOPS Tracker knives and this T-3 in 154cm steel is my favorite. I think it’s the best tracker yet, from TOPS Knives.
Hola. Tengo el tracker T-1 y el tracker T-3. Me gustan ambos pero siendo sincero creo que el mejor es T-1, ya que algo me dice el T-3 no le duro mas 10 minutos al bueno JoeX. Saludos.
It did surprisingly well, not fan of the design but hey whatever for a small blade it's ok. I was wondering if you would do a review on the condor terassaur, everyone says it's as good/better than the mora garberg and since the carbon version did extremely well i'm really curious about the result!
I have the Espada Large, but I worry that the XL has too much handle. Do you find the length of the XL handle to be bothersome, or can it become something you get used to?

NOBODY puts the effort into blade testing as Joe X!
thanks a lot!
True!!
Any time I’m thinking about buying a knife I always check for a JoeX test video first. Saved me plenty of money!
cool!
Wow. Not bad, at all!! If that first saw groove wasn't so deep, the tip probably would have lasted longer. You sure earned your beers in these temperture JoeX 👍🍺🍺CHEERZZ 🍺🍺
thanks bro!
That‘ s what i allways think about that „wire-Breaker“ close to the Tip.
😉
@@conger34 t wont break any wire anyway so it's just BS design feature. It's no saw either
Jepp, ist’s a rasp…
And of course the Notch Bear the Tip is Not so useful
I Saw it Used to grap a wire hanger of s Cooking pot.

154 CM stainless, according to the internets. Surprisingly tough knife. Joe X gives credit where credit is due. But the brick had to get its revenge.
i knew it! stainless!!!
Seeing this performance from 154CM is shocking. 154CM is far from being a tough steel.
The best conclusion I can draw is that anything can be super tough if you make it short and thick enough.
yeah, i was thinking it breaks on the brick!
JoeX A man of culture.
Marlboro!!!
I friggen love this guy!!! Go JOE X!!!!
Marlboro!!! thanks!
Tnx for another destructtest Joe X.
u are welcome my friend!
I was impressed for 18:30, but then JOE X stopped being nice to the knife.
it did ok!
JoeX tests knives so hard that if they survive it, you can easily show up to a gunfight with them!!!
yeah, hopefully!

I've been waiting on this one! Thanks! My next bush knife.
ok cool!

tip brake was not so cool! but ok! it was abuse!
@@joex Ja doch, es war abuse. Gute messer overall.
Great video. Very cool looking knife. Not affordable to me even with the whistle.
yeah, that whistle is like gold for them!
Hahaha, I bought a Tops only for the whistle, I throw the knife in a box, and I use the whistle every day. I'm very happy, a great whistle.
Joe, you forgot to test it! I want to see if it is indestructible.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Bravo, un super couteau!! et Bravo à toi Joe X !!
thanks!
1:07 You and this knife touched tips! The ultimate tip test.
i did him!
Joe is pretty dam strong to break the tip!
Even tho this version of the tracker is barely smaller than the original.
I bought the original TB Tracker instead of the SXB because of Joe.
-
I took the TBT to Idywild California and it survived work that made a K-Bar Kukri handle as loose as Karen's rotten UN-glory hole 😱
-
The TBT also came in handy to chop branches out of bushes (edit* or thickets I meant) where your hand doesn't have much space to strike with bigger choppers and the weight is perfect to chop small branches off the bigger branch that you just chopped and to make spears (I just destroyed a possum hiding in my engine with a spear)
-
The lateral force impact resistance to use as a mallet seems to be very strong as well
-
The ergonomics to me seems like feather sticking would be more comfortable than the SXB but I still regret NOT getting the SXB instead for it's evidently higher self defense potential and more chopping power
-
However I cannot seem to sharpen the low sabre grind on the TBT with a ceramic file, so field sharpening would suck for me
-
I currently took the TBT out of my hiking repertoire for TOPS EL CHETE and or CONDOR PLAN A Bowie and the COLD STEEL SR-1 LITE
-
I give MUCH respect to Joe! --- I could have snapped my leg when I stumbled over a loose boulder at Idywild last spring but it miraculously rocked back the other way instead of collapsing on the side of my knee and pinning me to another rock --- so AMEN about JESUS saving our IRON RODS 👍🏼
thanks for the intel my friend!
Can’t wait. T3 excitement over here amigo…
awesome!
Good stainless blade! Thanks for sharing! 🙌
u are welcome!
Very good knife ✌🏻
cool!
pretty coll knife BUT a bit too muchas expensive...
nice to see you Herr JoeX !!
thanks, it is very pricy!
ジョーXの為に開発された可能性があります
The only Tops I have is a T2 Tracker. Carbon steel and a little smaller than this one. Was a present. Weird little knife. 154 cm is one of my favorite stainless steels. Did really good!
cool!
Tom Brown died 2 weeks ago . Age 74.
@QuantumPyrite_88.9 That sucks. Didn't hear about it. Interesting guy. Guess I'll have to watch "The Hunted" tonight.
I wanted to know if you think a kukri machete or a knife is better for chopping and what model you recommend?
it depends, i like machetes!
Always been interested in this blade design 🇦🇹 🇳🇿
greets to New Z my friend!
👍 My master of destruction !!! 👍❤🤘
LG 👻
danke!
Great video Joe X! 👍🏻🔪. I have all the TOPS Tracker knives and this T-3 in 154cm steel is my favorite. I think it’s the best tracker yet, from TOPS Knives.
cool!
I expected the tip to last a lot longer (that's what she said) Great video Joe!
thanks, me too!
Ive been both looking forward to, and dreading this day but i knew it would come.
Fingers crossed 🤞
soon !!!!
What kind of wood is the unbatonable thing?
And where can I get some?
I think it would make a nice strong knife grip.
i think it is walnut! but i am not sure!
@@joex Amazing. I have never seen such tough walnut. I guess I have to stick to seasoned german oak for my next build.
Good job on the video
thanks
Joe X is lined up ready to destroy some shit....BOOOM
exactly!
We need to see the Hemlock Ares vs. the unbatonable log. More epic than Alien vs. Predator. Joe X rules all.
yeah i am on it!
El acero 154 CM tiene también su versión pulvimetalurgica.
ok claro!
Looks like you're getting geared up for my 1lb Alpha Tracker ...I do initial test mine first...you test soon.
ok cool!

It did surprisingly well, not fan of the design but hey whatever for a small blade it's ok.
I was wondering if you would do a review on the condor terassaur, everyone says it's as good/better than the mora garberg and since the carbon version did extremely well i'm really curious about the result!
cool!
Fanboy whistle had me in tears!!! 😂
Marlboro!!!!!!!!!
How’s that right hand?
ok, thanks!
Me acordé al final de tú vídeo de las abejas 😂😂😂
gracias!
Tough knife and tough price. 👍
yeah very much!
Not bad!
indeed!
Joe, we know WTG Ares will baton that
nothing can do that!
@@joex Please prove me wrong, ;) Get big daddy WTG Ares out!
joe x needs a lanyard handle
sure thing!
Can't wait till Saturday Joe! Keep up the outstanding work, brother. Mad respect!🤙
awesome!
I want more tests!
i want harder balls!
@@joex Balls of steel!
Any new knives come in?
yeah some!
Hmmmmmmmm

I think its generally accepted, you have to work to break one of these knives..
yeah sure!
👍
Marlboro!!!
Good stuff, but not my style 😅😅😅
thanks!
Possibly the most divisive design in the knife industry.
yeah true!
Tom Brown died 2 weeks ago.
thanks for the info!
The 1095 tracker that you tested didn't break like that! Stainless def inferior to spring steel for toughness
ok!
I have the Espada Large, but I worry that the XL has too much handle. Do you find the length of the XL handle to be bothersome, or can it become something you get used to?
If you are a small mammal, let's say under 5-10.
You may have issues with the XL.
I went with the Marauder serrated fixed blade. Best of both worlds, more blade and less handle.
nice blade!
XL is the best folder on this planet bro! everything is awesome on this one!
1095 steel. 💪
cool!
fuckin TOPS

Quiero que rompas un Puma WH
nope!

😎👍

nice!
scheisssssse, i can see 395€ !!!
no way i pay ~400€ for a blade...!
i know!
That blade is so weired looking. That tip bending test, still makes me piss myself.
ok!
Has TOPS redeemed themselves?
nope!
@@joex
Any suggestions on a good quality knife I can do armed security with?
Something with a 6 inch/15.25 cm blade and micarta handle scales.
Mois? Zois? 😂 Bist du das?
Marlboro!!!!
My lord..
Maybe the first few notches on the saw made the tip break..?
Long live King X 👑
thanks!
Do a buck 124
did some!
@@joex yes but not 124
Joe my brotha I'm slowly turning into you on my videos 😂
i checked them, no JOEX mention there bro!
How much PBKG dick do you puff on?
Cool kit ! 🫡
yes!
Id rather watch you then watch the fukd up government around the world. Keep going bro!!! FUKN AWSOME!!!

thanks a lot!
Enough, we need a Cold Steel Espada XL Joe X signature @coldsteel
Hell yes!👍🔪🗡️⚔️🤘
yeah, a serrated one! where is stick!
For sure! Cold steel should have a Joe X line of knives. Barebones and crazy tough, etch his logo on the blade!
