#tops #tracker
not too shabby i woude say ! i guess apart from shooting it its a good survival tool. next time you shoud test the Lil Roughneck 😝 nahh jokes aside, nice torture testing joe. Every Test successfully mastered! Tip test was clear to me but i thought the iron rod woude destroy it.
sometimes im just glad that you life far away from my collection !
it did fantastic!!! still dont like the handle!
@@joex of course you have to nagg about something... its still tops 😜
sure u are right, TOPS is my special cause!
it is like i am kind of a "bully" for that brand! but thats how i am!!!
Ordered one …. Joe cost me £££
I cannot BELIEVE the Top’s Tom Brown Tracker has lasted as long as it has with your tests!! It makes me feel SO much better about my purchase of that knife!!
I was just waiting to see how it would stand up to your shooting test!! A-fricking-mazing!!
THANK YOU, JOE X, for an AMAZING EXCELLENT VIDEO!!
it did fantastice, nice ZOMBIE blade for sure!
u are welcome!
@@joex how nice zombie blade when can't cut off arm or head... can't cut tree... bad chopper!
kind of@@Janzer_
@@Janzer_
Not for chopping off zombie heads. And splitting them either.
That's far beyond its capabillities.
It's tough alright, but does it chop and cut...
A regular claw hammer is already a better choice given the zombie invasion.
I don’t buy anymore knives unless it’s been approved by Mr Joe X. Keep the videos coming man.most people will never push a knife that hard, but knowing that it could withstand that kind of abuse, it gives me a peace of mind. The sad part is, I’ll be selling lots of my over hyped knives.😢
Thank you Mr Joe X
cool and good idea my friend! MARLBORO!
dont sell them, they will gain on value, in the future for sure!!!
Finally a Tops knife passed these tough ass test ! Well Done Tops !
yes bravo tops dudes!
My dear warrior, your channel is a treasure for anyone who likes blades! I won't buy any more knives without first checking out your channel!! Thank you very much for the excellent service you provide to all of us, the paper gladiators!!
thanks a lot! cool!
Wow. a lot to be said for simple 1095 carbon steel heat treated well. Great test Joe!
take 1 cm thick slab of metal (any metal) and try to destroy it. good luck
this knife survived mainly because of thickness not because of heat treatment
Thanks!!👍👍👍
👌
This knife is 6mm not 1cm. And nobody asked for your stupid uneducated opinion kid. @@kudlatykid
@@kudlatykid1095 steel, when treated optimally, always gives excellent results; I own two large knives with this steel and I can assure you that they are tanks.
it survived so something must have gone wrong in the tops manufacturing you should send it back so they can find out what went wrong with this one.
i dont send it back, dont now where!!!!
@@joex you did not get his meaning 😀
LOL
Why send it back lol 😂 tops knives are great especially with their heat treating
@@woodswolfairsoft347nope! they’re not lol
Had my TBT-010 for years. Used it to clean and skin a bunch of animals and every bit of camp duty I could come up with. It's my "if I could only have one blade" knife and always goes where I go. Never tried to hack a car or rock apart and don't see that as a possibility anytime soon...but it was entertaining watching you beat this thing up!
cool, glad u liked it!
I was sceptical about this knife but I want one now
cool!
I think we need a re-test of the Cold Steel GI Tanto (the first JOEX review didn't include the iron rod).
That knife is only $30 and in concept very comparable to the TOPS here.
I don't think the GI Tanto would perform as well as this, but when the Tom Brown Tracker costs 7X more it really doesn't need to.
it will happen soon!!!! but no spoilers this time!
Another great video! Would love to see a Busse Fusion Battle Mistress tested .
Me too. If I ever get one in my hands, I'll keep it ! I ain't sending it to Joe !
me too! thanks!
u should send me one Tom!
@@joex 😂🤣 ! Hey Joe, I'm not one of those billionaires you hear about in the U S. Those knives are MORE than a little pricey $$$
they are, esp. in europa!@@tombrown4683
These modern knives are simply phenomenal. Out of this world toughness and quality cause you're an absolute menace on them!😂
this one is good!
Guy proceeds to chop a car door in half with a knife. “It’s not good for chopping” lol. Make, the door is hacked up.
it is not!
LEGEND.. you work hard friend.. much respect and thanks for all the blisters/battle scars so we can all learn..
thanks a lot!
Great Performance for a“Movie-Knife“
Nice nicenice.
(I allways liked the Tracker Blades☺️)
it did good!
¡Excelente! Muchas gracias amigo. Muy interesante resultado de ese asombroso cuchillo.
gracias amigo!
Is the TOPs tracker the strongest knife ever you have tested?
I was so surprised. I will buy one right now.
WTG ARES was good too, but this one, maybe the best survivor
It was a great torture test! Excellent. I am a tracker knife fan, and the way you used JOE's previous experience in breaking them was very helpful. I agree that the design of the handle shape, especially the handle butt, is also slippery. American Knife seems to like this design.
cool!
Just found your channel, very nicely done. I love knife videos. You take care.
@@drmikeyb1
Sorry Joe, I saw a channel by one of your viewers and I thought I was messaging them. No I've always watched yours. Take care my friend
Thank you Joe. Outstanding work and video.
cool, glad u like it!
Awesome! Looks like a pretty sweet knife ! Thanks for sharing.
cool!
Great test! And I'm pleasantly surprised it lasts. Of course, it's a solid construction and that's why it lasted. Thank you sir! Good job!
thanks a lot!
It's a pry bar with a sawback and an edge.🤣 They did a good job on removing stress points in the sawback, many failure points happen at the valleys of a sawback.
yes, thats true!
Yeah, the entire knife looks like one big stress point, because it is basically made of stress points! I am very surprised in this result
Interesting! We appreciate your work, Joe🤙🏼 BTW, why do you think that the OP7, failed so easily and miserably, being 5/16” thick at the spine? Steel? Heat treat? Geometry, or a combination of all of these things?
everything is possible but i thinnk the OP7 is just a bad knife!@@powers1776reset
Strong blade, pretty impressive, thanks for the test Joe.
u are welcome!!
Best knife channel on TH-cam, and there are a lot of good ones! You keep getting better, Joe! Marlboro!
Marlboro
🤟🤟
Thanks
I think I would pick this Tops Tracker over Survival Lily Apo1T knife.
That Tops Tracker survived the Iron Rod!
APO1T survived it too, just the tip broke earlier!
Woo! Live premiere with Joe X! Life is fun! 8D And a Tops knife that finally made the grade! This makes me glad because Ontario Knife Company is no more and they are also made in the USA. More, please!
glad u liked it!!!!!
more is coming!
Can't wait 👍 I bet it takes a beating!!!!!
yes!
The Steyr AUG never disappoints.
🤟🤟
Goodness, the love / hate relationship continues with the Tops T1 Tracker...
As for the Tops lineup of Tracker knives, the T3 is by far the best of the bunch for performance. The T1 Tracker is more of a sharpened pry bar if you can call it that.
I've been hired to modify countless T1 Trackers over the years. The primary problems people wanted taken care of was the double finger grooves and the primary bevel. Once you knock off one or both of the finger grooves and take take the shoulder off the primary bevel (subsequently turning the front portion of the Blade into a convex edge) the knife performs significantly better.
There was a point in time where I was sending out modified Trackers nearly every day for a year. Some slight tweaks to the design make a huge difference that's for sure.
Generally impressed it survived as long as it did. Congratulations Joe! You finally found a Tops you couldn't break! 🤘
yeah, this one is unbreakable! but Tops should change some things, i dont understand why they did not do it, when the problem is known!!!! cheers my friend!
@@joex it's a problem that's been brought up many times. I've spoken to them personally about it, and if I remember correctly it was even brought up in my episode of the Daily Grind podcast. They just don't see a reason enough to change it, and the designer was only in it for the money capitalizing off the film success. Oh well.
yeah, weird overall this story! but the next Tops blade will suffer! promise!
have you seen "original" WSK(wilderness-survival knife) or red scorpion six predator mb?
no@@W1LDtracer
So which did u like better, price aside; the lily or the real Tracker? Awesome video, tbh I only watched the last part because I knew what to expect;)
I like the APO1T bettter, despite it breaks, the handle from lillys blade is fantastic!
Nice! Thanks for the awesome content, been waiting for this one😁
cool!
Send it back in for the warranty!
where to?
That's one for Tops, awesome torture testing. Thanks 👍
🤟thanks
Was anxious to see how this one faired in your tests. It surprised me ! This knife has always had a mystique about it but I never thought it would be best at what I would use a knife for ! I don't like sawteeth on a knife. Only useful if they are a real saw - most aren't like the Tom Brown Tracker !
it a cool blade, but i will stick to my machetas!
Also there is this cushioned grip wrapping called Octopus Grip if I recall correctly. There’s others too so maybe you can try one out and save yourself some pain in the hands.
ok cool!
Joe è il più grande e indiscutibile professionista...il più grande in assoluto.
Un saluto joe.
gracias amgio!
Loved watching you use it as a pry bar on the VolkStabbin.
cool, glad u like it!
Surprised survival lilly isn't on here screaming about how AUS8 is better than every other steel.
I think that if the secondary bevel was removed and it was sharpened properly this would completely change the performance of this knife. The weight and thickness of the steel is plenty to make it chop very well. Glad to see that your old videos are still available for watching. Keep doing what you’re doing and don’t let the idiots stop you, there’s a lot more idiots out there than intelligent people unfortunately. We love you and your videos, even though you are much harder on the knives than I would be, it’s nice to see what it can take before breaking. Take care!
thanks!
I own a tracker from boker. Thank you very much for testing 👍👍👍
cool!
Oh, now I know why they're so expensive - it comes with a whistle 😂
sure nice whistle!
Much appreciated joex
Thank you kindly
😁😁
👍
u are welcome!
Hey Joe whats up brother, another fantastic video. Seems like if they could add a little bit more grip on that handle it would help tremendously. Thats a beast with just a slightly to small of a handle for that much knife. Just my opinion. Take care my friend.
thanks a lot bro! it is not my kind of handle!!!!
I bought my Tom Brown Tracker #1 Christmas 2021 for $310 and don't regret it a bit! It's a beast.
cool!
@@joex Thanks for your videos. Man oh man. You really put knives through their paces like no other. 😂👍
Add to cart
cool!
Aside from the tests, you are an athlete to be envied, if I had tried to do the splits and jumps you do, they would have taken me to the hospital 100 times.
Very nice video, Joe.
thanks a lot my friend!! cheers!
He’s a super
Mutant alien
@@JuaneDoses-zk9dm 👍👍👍
I really don’t like all the fancy, trendy blades. My blade of choice is the Ontario camp plus 12 inch machete in 1075. The d guard keeps it in hand. The injection molded plastic handle is fantastic. I also like the plain style . It will never survive your tests but in saner hands it will last a life time! And for 20 bucks it’s a lot of bang for the buck.
ontario is cool!!!
This one gives me gas station knives vibe😂
Try Cold Steel D-guard machete, it has survived the tests 😂
Awesome performer, amigo! 🍻
You did a very good job on this stabber and it survived, so it’s a survival knife, a pro 😉
It‘s not my design, I have to say, but that‘s just my five cents.
Ah, and by the way, now I know who Falco meant at the beginning of „Der Kommissar“ with „Check it out, Joe!“ 😉🍻
Falco the legend!!!!
@@joex ❤️
This is a good knife.
ok!
That’s a true knife for the apocalypse. No CD e review. Would love to see how the budget priced Warivo stacks up
this one is good from Tops!
@@joex You just caused me to buy one 👍. Love your channel!
cool!"
Out of all the knives u have tested which would be your camping/survival knife pick
i dont go camping, for survival, WTG ARES or APO1T
Did Not expect that!
🤟🤟
you could use that blade as a plate carrier lol
true!
Good to see You, have and use bundeswer trousers, I have also, original, quite good thing, for good price!!
just the flecktarn camo!
wow thats a great result!
🤟🤟
there's a guy that lives across the street from me that does this kind of thing, chop stuff on the street like poles. but he's a fentanyl addict :)
thats weird!
Wow, indestructible knife!
yes!
Just going through old vids of knives i like. I watch alot of your channel. One knife i really want to see is the buck 104
awesome, the dark side is addicted!
Sharpened pray bar, total beast.
yes!
after all these destruction tests what is the one knife you would choose to have for the rest of your life if you could only pick one?
my Steyr AUG
@@joex is that the aug bayonet knife?
this one not!@@cocacolabob
it looks cool but id rather have a small kukri
me too
Yep, way more effective tool.
The warrantee is so good if you send it back they will replace it !
i dont think so!!!!
Awesome test
thanks!
Dang. It survived longer than many other tops blades. I love the tracker wsk pattern, but not the tops version.
ok cool!
I was afraid to watch another Tops failure but what a good surprise Phew, I thought I would never recover after El Chete debacle. I’ll be ordering this particular Tom Brown “Trekka” and remember is not a “Choppa”
Thank you JoeX
u are welcome, it is a nice ZOMBIE APO weapon!!!
So this is a solid block of a knive.
It is!
I got the cuma takri over this for tactical reasons, but this is definitely a well built knife too.
ok cool!
This knife reminds me of the blades of chaos
cool!
Cedric sent me. Good stuff!
thanks to Australia!
Incroyable !
Marlboro!!!
Take a bench grinder and dremmel tool to the handle. Then use a sandpaper sponge
ok cool!
@@joex Just make sure you don’t get it too hot on the grinder…. I suppose you could opt for a belt sander
Yes they have a warranty you return it for new one no questions asked
ok cool!
I had shorter version of this knife. Perfect, better 1095 heat threatment, +/- 58 hrc, beter holding edge than Esee knives. But normal using of this knife, asymetrical grind and edge..., I have sold it, but is it super beast almost indestructible!!!
cool blade but it is a TOPS...
If I can’t chop, can’t pierce or stab, what is the point of it?
It may be strong but doesn’t knife well.
did u watch the vid....stabs ....
I did. It didn’t seem to penetrate the car.
@@joex, it also hurt your hand in the reverse grip.
I’ve only recently got a tracker, not the Tom Brown one but a cheap $50 one.
I’d be pissed off if I paid $400 for the TBT. I just think that there are better tracker knives for less.
I would say I'm surprised it survived the iron rod but the blade is only 6" long, the design is basically just taking a whole 1/4" bar of steel and minimally shaping it.
Making a comparable knife would be easy, the $220 street price for this is maybe a bit steep but fair enough credit to TOPS because I can't think of a comparable knife for less money right now.
yeah the blade length saved it!!! SXB crushed because of the length!!!
You might like the Infi steel used in busse knives.
A long time ago knifetestnoss used one to hack and chip away at a brick he was trying to cut in 2
would be interesting!
@@joex you're a madlad for braking that Scrapyard knife, the dirty trick 12
Looks like a fine anchor for your boat trips! ⚓
to leightweight for that!
that knife fights back!
si senor!
If TOPS improves the Handle, this would be an Even Better Knife 💯
exactly!
Kewl....
😎👍
🤟
That "TOPS TRACKER" is One Tuff Knife 🗡️🔪😮‼️💯
indeed!
Brother, I want to see your test, Steel Eagle 107d!
me too!
We love grain structure!! Here a Glock, there a Glock, everywhere a Glock shot!
and a Benchmade Bugout!!!! no one commented on that!
That's a tiger tank of a knife. I own the one in coyote brown. Coolest looking knife I own but not practical
u said it!
Im upset! I was waiting for the c4 and rpg test 😂
sorry!
I have seen it all now. A knife survived joe until he shot it
indeed my friend!
Great Herr Joe 😎👍👍👍
🤟🤟🤟🤟
@@joex a legendary blade! Handle is shit, but the knife kick ass 😎🙌
yeah!
What kinda knife you would take to the apocalypse?
WTG ARES
Turn on closed captions…. Master Prick and the prick destroyed the handle are pretty funny
thanks!
HOLY SHIT!! I can’t believe that the Glock shot didn’t penetrate it! It took a RIFLE round to do it!!
yeah, but some blades survive the Glock!!!
223 Rem or 5,56 did the job"
@@joexthat still says a LOT about the blade strength! I’m impressed.
yeah it does!
Nice vídeo!
You must test the Extrema ratio selvans! 💪
thanks, good idea!
😂это дикий и веселый парень. Очень позитивный.
thanks cool!
Not bad for a sharpened prybar
yes!
Wrong grip for the chopping, supposed to choke back so the blade is at 45 that way you hit with the belly not the half notch.
i did everything perfect! but thats a Tops blade!
i wanna see him test the heavey duty thick boker
i will tell him!
@joex I'm sorry I ment the kabar but he already did it I see!! I like this channel. What brand does he recommend?
ok cool!
the same answer! but i did a lot of Kabars!
ok
My only response to Joe slightly hating a TOPS a little less, "Ok cool" lmfao.
thats the spirit my friend!
Hello JOE .. I am your subscriber from Indonesia, if you don't mind, could you review the AITOR COMMANDO Knife from AITOR COMPANY, because one of the special forces in my country still uses the knife from AITOR to this day. Thank You
!
I just realized... if you dive all the time in this pond it’s to go see catfish that have water stones to sharpen your knives, right?
🐊
catfish - a lot of them in there!
Not many Tops knives survive your testing intact (blade steel). I notice the handle is not skeletonized which is good, now just change the ergonomics and you would have a great tool.
true! and i agree!
It seems that they often break on the handle and the holes.
yes
