Sharp Bright & Tactical WebMagazine, A look at the Tops Knives/Colin Despins Back Bite Knife

[Tacticalsystems]

Good blade design , yet the craftsmanship build quality was less than satisfactory( blade was dull, angle of grind on warnclif side not consistent.

@Tacticalsystems Lame! Sorry to hear that, could be a product of Tops rushing to fill demands of backorders, maybe QC was rushed, I know they didn't expect the knife to be as popular as it has become. Mine is (an early production number) satisfactory, but I gave it a little more pop with a fine ceramic rod on the "flat" side, on the little hairline grind.

Would you prefer this over the tops cuma evolution as a fixed blade edc

[ponysoprano]

@LaxingIsLife  ya know I have both...different applications, Bite more defensive...CUMA more all-sorts-of-use

Great design for Pakal & Sak Sak Filipino knife techniques which are the ones I'm seeing Colin using in his video (Russian???). As for this video, you really need to edit it down to the essentials, rather than ramble on about how to take the knife out of the Kydex scabbard. We get it - we really do! :~)

@fiveform thanks, I'm a writer "dabbling" in videos, & this is one of a handful of firsts...they'll get more to the point, higher def, & overall better, thanks

[ponysoprano]

@fiveform also, there truly are people who are kydex-retarded, i know YOU & others get it, but I've watched some ppl get cut, & it's silly & stupid, but I getcha ;)

im thinking about getting one of these but not sure on the size, you said people didnt know you had it on, could you possibly show it on your belt.. new video? i like the design of the knife just worried about the size.

@ deepee, sorry to hear that, mine was very near shaving sharp on the straight ("spine" edge) and not hair shaving but usable sharp on the curved "primary" edge. I did make both edges sharper, giving them more of a "grippy" kind of sharpness using a fine ceramic dogbone sharpener and very light pressure.

@ Deno, definitely worth the price of admission, I'm loving mine, carrying it daily and it really does carry discreetly, my full detailed written review is coming soon. Thanks guys! -A

[deepee0979]

mine wasn't sharp upon unboxing :(

[Denomolise]

This knife will be my next purchase, I love this design.
