I love my Silent Hero. I had a problem with the coating also. I hadn’t really used it but it started peeling off and rust appearing. Tops offered to fix it under warranty straight away which impressed me. I decided posting it to the US was too much hassle so I stripped it and did a vinegar patina. It now looks awesome, it’s got a really nice battle worn look now. and I’ve had no rust issues since, maybe 1095 likes to breath. I’m going to have to get it a baby brother now
We were going to help you out by getting you a replacement sheath but I haven't heard anything. Just wanted to make sure I gave you the correct email info@topsknives.com
@@TOPSKnivesofficial no worries guys, i actually fixed & improved the retention with epoxy. Made a video on how it turned out. No replacement needed and thats the reason i haven’t reached out. I appreciate you following up with me. At current time a replacement is not needed. Thanks TOPS!
@@TOPSKnivesofficial my only ask is to focus on those two preorder El Chete’s from Knifecenter i have in process 😂🤣. Also, the Daily Grind the other day….as a reminder to Leo, im dead serious on a 3V El Chete. I may know a few Yubers that could get in on a group customized buy. I know Leo and Craig are busy, but a rough estimate on a 3V El Chete from the Custom shop would be dope! CPM 3V of course, how many grands we talking Leo?!
Been a fan of the Silent Hero for years. Have liked Anton's designs since I got the Askari would like to hear him review the Askari. Great video Thank You.
I had to hunt around to find one, but I’ve been carrying it about 4 weeks. Seems great so far. The sheath is a little wide, since it’s a wide blade, but other than that, no complaints. It will be interesting to see how the cerekote holds up long term in more humid areas, exposed to sweaty bodies.
Videos and pictures do not do this knife justice. The finish on mine is like gun bluing - not that rough paint-like stuff I have seen on other knives. And, the balance in the hand is perfect. It was way above what I was expecting when I ordered it - an amazing value!
It's a really good blade bro, and I carry mine daily, and knives this size has so many daily uses it's insane lol self defense and beyond but it does have it's limits and that's chopping but the rest it can handle trust me lol----- 💪💪
So nice to see you in person. So far I have purchased two Silent Hero knives for gifts and just purchased the SH4 for myself. Appreciate all you do.
Best knife I have ever purchased.
Good Looking Blade. I Bought My Silent Hero Many Years Ago. It Is Still My Go To Outdoor Blade. Thanks For The New Addition .
Looks great 👊
I got the original Silent Hero & Askari back in 2014. They are both great knives & great for the African bush.

I almost think stripping it looks better than the coating. I love that worn metal look.
@@MDR-hn2yz it does there’s blacks, greys, orangey and yellowish colours. I almost hope the ceracote coating fails on the SH4 when I get one 😁.
Beautiful knife wow.
I own one too. Cuts well. Stoked to see the background story and design of this blade.
Thank for designing the handle to be usable for people without massive hands
Awesome Job Anton & TOPS Knives on the scaled down Silent Hero 4 👍👍🔪🫡🇺🇸

Love the designs, I have the first one. I think when I get the smaller one it also will be a favorite of mine. Like the kydex.
