Want to say a big ´Thanks´ for your work and your great Videos! Helps me always a lot when i must decide what knive i should order! I ordered the Tibo, should be here in the next days. Greetings from Austria!
I enjoyed this review. I'm a fan of both TOPS and ESEE knives. I was attracted to ESEE from the start. You simply can't go wrong owning an ESEE knife. TOPS, on the other hand, are probably one of the most unique designers in the industry. There are so many types and designs to choose from it's mind blowing. Quality knives, no question about it, and very imaginative creations.
Well Aaron you did it again. You are the best reviewer out there no kidding you're honest and total complete reviews your opinions and the way you bring out the features and benefits. Your unbiased reviews I look forward to seeing them. Also one last thing I sure would appreciate some reviews on Sun good solid backpacks sleeping bags tents and tarps maybe.. Thanks again Aaron
Everyone loves the Izula as thee point of reference, but I think the Eskabar is far superior. I just wish it had the longer handle like the Izula II does now. Great knives either way and great reviews.
Qualityways i think esee is superior. It is just my opinion on it i am really impressed with your fanbase gideon! Everyone is very polite and rude arguments are rare. Even the haters are almost nonexistent keep it up greetings from austria:)
ArDronee Arguments are rare because Gideon is really straight forward and honest, alot of other youtubers are narcissists like nutnfancy who constantly move the goal posts and crush any discussion and dissent. This channel is refreshing by comparison in a big way! Love it!
i like your review but do you know how easy it would be to simply apply a heat gun to that upper back edge of the kydex and just add a thumb break? your complaint is moot.... the "problem" is easily fixed. TOPS wins..
Esee is wayyyy better. I abuse mine cutting random things . I usually cut brass by accident. Aluminum. (Not straight thru) just the hoses I cut have steel braided lines. Brass fittings that always seem to never let go so I run the knife around the fitting cutting off old blown hydraulic lines. And the blade is still sharp enough to shave hair. The only other knife to withstand this abuse is my benchmade at 200.00 . So. Screw tops and it's no warranty.. esee.izula 2.
Bic lighter and a conical pen cap will fix the Tibo sheath. Super easy to give yourself a little thumb ramp.
Both good knifes but I prefer the ESEE! Good review!
They're neck knives. Thumb ramp not required. Just tug!
Easy to mod the tibo kydex if desired.
I just think it's so awesome you have a bible in your EDC!
NeptuneKnives Thanks, the sword of the spirit goes with me everywhere.

You're certainly welcome Aaron you deserve it.
Brian Griffin is trying to get TOPS to do a limited run in S35VN which I'll def be getting one! Great review as always.

MrScaryfrank Glad the videos help!
maybe the noise you hear in the izula sheath is the cord in the handle, i have the izula there's no play in the sheath at all
Same here no play with my stainless steel Izula
Great compare between these two blades
Jim Cyr Thank you!
No collection is complete without at least one Izula!!!
I like Tops but they can’t touch Esee!
My Tops Mowhawk Hunter replaced everything I have
good vid man just from your vids i'm eyeballing the izula maybe the izula2 for my new EDC. good stuff brother, keep it real
I luv my Esee Stainless steel Izula with black G-10 handles 💪🇺🇸

Thanks for the comment and I agree!
I own both brands, and like both brands
joshuah moran Agreed!
Hah, that's way too fair-minded. TH-cam Comments don't work that way. Ya gotta slam one.,,,don't you?
@@jerrybobteasdale lol
I like them both!!! I'm getting my first ESEE soon, ESEE Candiru Black with the Orange G-10 Grips Even though Im a TOPS fan boy.

Thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it! I plan on doing several of the things you listed this year.
Hey Aron, Keep up the brutally honest knife reviews!
Question: which of the two has the thinner blade? Thanks.
Everyone loves the Izula as thee point of reference, but I think the Eskabar is far superior. I just wish it had the longer handle like the Izula II does now. Great knives either way and great reviews.
***** Right on!
agreed, the eskabar is on my list
Qualityways i think esee is superior. It is just my opinion on it i am really impressed with your fanbase gideon! Everyone is very polite and rude arguments are rare. Even the haters are almost nonexistent keep it up greetings from austria:)
ArDronee We try to be as respectful as possible. Arguing and being mean to each other does no good for either side.

One of the other perks of the ESEE is the ability to choose from many different colors. The TOPS doesn't give you that... Black only! Lol
Around the 8:10, TOPS vs ESEE =
No difference.
FYI: That's why I was here:)
I prefer the Tops Tibo. The BK24 or BK14 would be better than the Izula
As a joke I used a Gerber last week. It is now useless . Rolled the edge so bad it is flaking away. Cutting two lines. Just 2.. I do 10 a day average.
The esee wins hands down . Looks nicer . Last longer, warrenty is better. Did I mention it looks better.
Great Review. Thanks!
i like your review but do you know how easy it would be to simply apply a heat gun to that upper back edge of the kydex and just add a thumb break? your complaint is moot.... the "problem" is easily fixed. TOPS wins..
Kydex should be tight...it's not even that tough to pull out of the stock sheath. Is this a joke?
There's always that one guy just waiting to dislike your video
i have a laser cutter... i can make my own handle scales... so again, TOPS wins..

Agree' I luv my Esee Stainless steel Izula with black G-10 handles 💪🇺🇸
1) Tops knives are garbage.
2) I bought the Izula SPECIFICALLY because their belt clip sheath is amazing.
its pronounced as "tee bo"
Hate that dude tee bo
I can t beleve that mistake sheath desingn in a company like TOPS !!!
