So take a $200+ knife chop on a car with it and beat on a metal pole to say it failed... This is probably the most pointless video I have ever watched. And I am ashamed yes I watched it all. No idea why.
❤❤❤❤😂awesome
Other cheap knives last way longer lol

You are probably one of the few human beings out of a population of 8 billion who's ever done something that is completely different and no one has ever done before. I haven't bought a knife for over 1 year and I ordered this one. It should be arriving tomorrow morning but I wanted to see how durable it was and you are the guy to do it. People make lousy comments but they don't realize the value of this type of destruction test. If I'm going to spend a few hundred dollars on a knife I want to make real sure that it will last through the worst punishment that I can throw at it. It's too bad you have to spend so much money. Cheers from Canada.
thanks a lot for your comment! i start slow and now i can not stop destroy blades and expose some liars in the knife biz!
cheers to Canada!
You have modified the machete into a cool cleaver then a mini cleaver. Well done.
thanks, that was my intention!
This guys is a goof. If you used that blade like it was meant to be used. it would last a lifetime
Whats a goof?
@@joex look it up in the Websters dictionary if you know what that is
@@ravin747 no me don't know
Joe ! Did the handle feel loose before the brick or iron rod? Thanks!!!
i cant remember!
Damn cant chop down a metal pole.... better not buy it😂
you are absolutely right!
😂😂😂
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@joex you're hilarious bro!
😂
"The handle is loose... ALREADY"
(Been chopping like a madman on the hardest surfaces in the neighborhood for an hour straight)
I'm dying!!!
😂😂😂 "already" 😭😭😭
@@eliteknowledge7298 thanks!!!
Erwischt, du bist deutscher. Top Video. Also würdest du das Messer empfehlen?
nicht wirklich!
@@joex Warum, es hat doch viel ausgehalten? Normalerweise schlägt man auf Holz nicht Metall
Don't worry , that will buff right out. Thanks for the test
you are welcome!
I'd like to see you test your gas mask underwater for an hour or so and then complain that it didn't keep you from drowning.
good idea! But i did that alreaedy!
🤣🤣🤣 good one
Fan boi alert ... James, I'll test your mom
Joe took your mom for a test and she didn't complain 🙄
@@qparxiii You should be embarrassed to make a comment like that in "public". Does your mom know that you are watching TH-cam videos instead of taking your nap?
This guy is true what e said, because in the Philippines our knife never be broke in
what?
I own El Chetico and I didn’t know you have test it. I enjoyed watching this vintage video but I noticed El bricko wasn’t there and no bullet blasting destruction of the handles which is one of my favorite parts of the video. Keep them coming Joe you are a legend already.
cool, thanks"
Looks to me that even before the TOPS El Chete broke into 3-pieces it had a bent a bit. 1095 is contains approximately 1-percent carbon making it a fairly high carbon steel. It's not supposed to bend. It's a simple carbon steel with no other alloying metals. Based on my observations it appears that TOPS is heat treating the cutting edge
but not the spine which is thick and requires more energy to heat (a major expense with energy prices on the rise and easier to grind.) and temper back down to an HRC 54-55.
The edge should be tempered down to 58-59 HRC. The TOPS El-chete from 4-5 years ago appears to have a better heat treat.
meaning the spine was hardened to more that 52 HRC but less than 58. Based on my observations it appears that
the heat treat line runs 3/4 inch above the cutting edge and the front of the knife. The remaining 2 inches above
the heat treat line likely have a hardness less than 50 HRC. Only a hardness test will reveal this value.
Hardened knives are not hammers. Hammers are typically made with medium carbon steel like 1045 or 1055 and can handle shock and some deformation. Hammers tend not to exceed an HRCs of 54 because toughness is needed to handle shock.
Knives are supposed to snap or return to true when torque is applied to them. If they
stay bent they have not been properly heat treated; especially if blades are 1/4 inch thick and 3-inches wide.
Heat treatment is the heart and soul of a knife don't skimp on it. TOPS knives are not cheap.
thanks a lot for the comment, it was one of my first "destruction videos", and true, they are not cheap, esp. in Europe!!!! cheers!!!
Even tho I wouldn’t ever do to my knives this guy has played a big part in my knife purchases lol I’ve had knives break on a wood knot lol watching this dude put these knives through maximum torture test tells me if I the knife is all show and no go 👍👍 I love these videos
thanks! Marlboro!!!!
i watch your videos not for the knives - i want to see how strong the cars are :-)
thats one of the best comments ever!!!!! i am dying right now, haha!!!
Ahahaha this guy is an animal,
Wonder what his neighbors thinking
😂😂😂
Best reviews on the tube though!!!
Good job big boy!
🙏🏼👍🏼
i am a legend around here, nobody talks shit!!!!!!!!
@@joexyou certainly are, but truth is, nobody would dare say anything either man 😂
@@eliteknowledge7298 haha, it is easy to be king these days!!
@@eliteknowledge7298 haha i am just kidding!!!
More of a idiot
No entiendo k con lo k vale el machete lo destroces así, bueno k cada uno hace lo k kiere con su dinero saludos desde España
250 Euro, El dinero ya no importa, es solo papel higiénico. pronto solo se usará para limpiar las nalgas, saludes de austrico
I’m not a fan of tops overpriced . Especially since they are made with 1095 steel which is cheap. I don’t understand why they don’t use a tougher steel for a chopper like 5160 or A8.
Really though the price is what turns me away. Then because of steel choice the blades are way too thick for cutting.
Besides if I want a real bad ass expensive knife I’d get a Busse.
Just my rants another fine destruction, take care my friend.
yeah i hear you, now i am thinking the same, a Cold Steel Machete is doing the same task, for a much much much cheaper price!!! 1095, some guys already mentioned it on my comments that this steel is not too good for a large knife, thanks for thoughts, greetings to you!!!
You act like blade steel is so important when a good heat treat is what really matters 🤣🤣🤣
@@blakeb.8525 it is very important depending on task and price.
@@blakeb.8525 you know what's really funny? Someone watched a few videos and now thinks they understand knife making. Heat treatment will make a ok steel good. But proper steel selection will make a good knife great. 😉
@@richardhenry1969
Choosing the steel is definitely important.
Ontario machete's with 1095 steel , 18 inch have way more breakage than when using 1070 or 1055 steel.
Anybody denying this has no knowledge about these matters at all.
The machete's like Imacasa/Condor , Tramontina never use 1095 steel.
joe - can you please test a Ontario sp8 - i want to see what it can take - your the man who can break it - given the times we live in - i have to know if its apocalypse proof
i can do it in 1 or 2 month!!
@@joex that’s great Joe - I wait in anticipation - thank you
the quench could have been to hot
trhats what she said!
This actually sold me more
cooL!
That protruding part is awful on the handle. Finger choils... not a fan here.
Well…… it is Designed to be a wood chopper in all fairness .
yes of course, just wanted to know what el chete can take!!!
An epic beat down Joe. Them boys gotta send you that high impact axe next! Give her hell Joe!
i will do, if i get one!!! 100, the AUG will break them all!
Express forte
Marlboro!!!!!
I figured the comments would be full of haters. Imagine a blade failing after abusing the absolute shit out if it. It’s a destruction video, people.
AMEN!
So El Chete turns in to El chappo 😂
u could say that!!!
It broke now
Marlboro!!!
What’s both disappointing and NOT surprising, is that you broke it using it for everything BUT it’s intended use. If it broke chopping wood, then I’d be disappointed and surprised.
it is a Tops it breaks, thats what they do!
I would add….here you are magnificantly beating this blade and i cant even find one here in the US. Out of Production. So Jelly my man! I like your newer videos where you talk chit!
haha, back then i was too soft, el chete is also out of stock here around!
It seems like the temper was off on this one. Usually they will have much better impact resistance than that. I’ve shot one in the past and it didn’t break. Goes to show that even with an off temper. Tops makes some seriously badass knives.
i shot this kind of steel too, usually the Glock is doing nothing, then with the rifle they brake"
So if I hit it against a brick I transform the El Chete into a decent camping cleaver? Nice!
you got it my friend, childrens knife!!!
Nothing that a little duct tape can't fix!
we fix our fighter jets wich duc tape!! so no big deal with this knife!
tops work the 1095 at best ! is correct?
i am not sure about that, the Silent Hero did pretty awesome, el chete not so much...
They should use cpm154
My axe won't ever break like that...nothing a $10 handle replacement can't fix or make one in the bush
yeah!
@@joex some people are too gullible
I think it’s fair to say that the Elchete is a terrible tool for stabbing. It’s more of a Froe.
it is ok, but in the end it is overrated and overhyped by Tops!
@@joex I just got one for $125 barely used. If I didn’t have sharpening skills, and paid full price I would feel that I got cheated. I lowered the bevel on each side to 13.9 degrees, and gave it a good stropping. I’ve made a few bow drill sets, and cleared a few trails. You are correct by it being overhyped. It is a fantastic chopper with good steel. As it came originally it was a turd. Overall I’m happy with it.
@@mauser8515 cool!
WOULD YOU SALE IT TO ME?
no, sorry
Test? I dont think this is a test. But ok its, its funny.
sorry me no english, i meant "massacre"
This is the most cringe worthy video I've seen. Dude used a chopper ment for wood and kept stabbing a car. When that didn't work, he broke some bricks and started to bash a steel post. All that abuse would break any machete and make knives completely unusable. Imagine useing it correctly, how long do you think it would last 🤔 10-15-50 years?
CS machetes did not, so the Makara!
I’m kind of depressed I’ve been trying to find one of those for sale for months and you got one just to destroy it lol
yes, but it died last year! now it is working in the garden...as a gardening knife!!
@@joex Nice, well I finally got tired of waiting on tops and bought a Junglass that will actually be here tomorrow.
@@bradgrand79 How do you like the junglass I have been looking at maybe getting one.
@@sterlingstoots3215 Overall very happy with the purchase, nice knife, it feels good in the hand, chops really well, and the sheath is great
what an animal
he is!
Nice Work!
Have you ever tested something from Midgars Messer? Huge f*ing knives with not crazy hard steels...
no, never, thanks!
may galit itong taong ito
ok cool!
Tops is poes
Well get your replacement before you post the video
actually, i am going to email them, to check out my video, and then ask to get another one! i am an honest thief!!
you broke it - the strange thing is that it looks the same except shorter
yeah, i was saying the same thing, baby chete!!!
Hahaha El Dead'e
you said it!!! haha
Dude is weak
no i am superstrong!!
This is a tool for bushcrafting or woodsman survival not Urban warfare take off the gas mask exposure yourself for what you really are someone who is promoting violent intent and social conflict not survival necessity
never said that i am a "suirvival-guy" did u ever see me doing feathersticks? guess no! haha
Joe is the terminator 😂
Joe is awesome, he's my new hero...........Long Live Joe X!
