    Tops do a "differential heat treatment" so the edge is harder than the rest of the blade..... probably helped it hold together

    Knife snobs like to look down on Tops for using 1095, as it's not latest greatest super steel, but it's clear they have their HT down to a science, and other than corrosion resistance, likely as good or better than most super steels costing far more $. Not saying that as a Tops fan boy either, as I don't own one and never have. I also add, I was really surprised how poorly the Fallkniven with Lam CoS steel performed in the same testing, a knife I do own! Hmmmm.

    So the amount of abuse that knife endured is absolutely incredible. I would be curious to see a part two where you do some tip torture and pry testing. I noticed you didn’t do any of that with this knife like you’ve done in previous videos. Just wondering if it would survive.

      actually i like the handle, it is not so bad, but i would prefer Micarta, i think they have newer models in micarta, but u are right, the prices are crazy, and i am still upset from the Storm Vector!!

      I know those handles. I've had them , several Tops.
      Same as the old flat handle of the ESEE 6. I find them very uncomfortable.
      I like oval shaped handles.
      But yes, tastes differ 😋.
      The Storm Vector hehe.
      Well, most knives you test break. So don't mourn too much about it.
      It's also due to the price, the mourning is bigger because of that.
      I can buy 6 Mora Bushcraft Black's for the price of one Tops.
      20 Mora Companion carbon's...
      For most knife tasks those shorter knives are way more useful.
      Larger stuff is machete territory.
      I don't live in a jungle. Well maybe a concrete jungle.
      Shorter knives are preferred there anyway.
      When's the zombie apocalypse going to start?
      Maybe Putin that murderous idiot wants to start one.

      Micarta's too slick for my taste.
      same as G10.
      There's a reason handles of tools(hammers, screwdrivers) are made of rubber.
      They work.
      They are grippy, warm to the hand, they damp vibration . Very comfortable.
      Durability is not an end to all means for me.
      And rubber can hold up well actually. Where micarta can get scratched badly also.
      I know of cases where parts of the micarta handle broke off.
      Put micarta under your shoes. Haha, doesn't last too long, and doesn't walk that pleasant.

      I get that.
      No hate to Russians here.
      But the world is better off without that war mongering KGB creep.
      Russians are better off also. They deserve a better leader than that.
      It would be better for the trade and nearly everything else.

      I saw a docu on them, it was called "All of us are dead".

    Definitely not a new concept to purchase a tool and misuse it but to air it, is. What you are doing is misusing a tool which people find entertaining. That's fine but logically what you are presenting yields very little useful information. Knives are made for cutting. Large knives for chopping items softer than they are. Not sure if you are aware but in general the harder the knife the more brittle it is. A carbon knife say made from 1095 that is hardened greater than 60 will chip and break if smashed because it loses its toughness. The heat treatment for hardening a carbon steel creates internal stresses. 1095 steel tends to perform best at HRC of 58. Most useful knives for cutting are hardened beyond HRC 56. Some exotic alloyed knives more than 67 HRC but that type of hardness makes them too brittle to strike against a hard surface because they can chip or shatter. If not, they can't keep a sharp edge. If you want to smash a piece of hardened steel but not break you have to go down to a sledge hammer or or a blunt piece of hardened steel like a crowbar. These 45-50 HRC hardened steels will likely smash your rock, wreck your cars, dent your steel pole but will not be able to fillet a fish, properly gut a deer, carve wood or stab a Perp like a hardened steel knife will. With that being said, your videos are entertaining.
