This is an AWESOME knife. It's not too heavy or too beefy. It weighs 12 ounces in the sheath combined. The dangler feature is sweet. It hangs nicely on your belt. The knife itself can do what you need to do in the woods, or as some say, the bush, or outback. The 1095 High Carbon Steel makes it easy to sharpen and keep sharp. The tungsten coating really preserves the knife. I love mine. It's also a beauty to hold and look at. It I could only take one survival tool in woods, it would be my Baja 4.5. A Great review you did!

Hey, you have a serious blade there... you can't go wrong with TOPS ! I feel for you mates in the UK and those archaic knife laws. Laws don't matter to those who have bad intentions. I've got my eyes on a Cold Steel Recon Tanto. It has a similar sheath. You can pass that one of yours to your son, and he to his !
Absolutely agree with you brother! When I was speaking to the shop, I was seriously considering the Tanto, I think that's going to be the one I get on order next! If it's made in the US or UK I'm all for it!
@@ManDogWild There was a time when Cold Steel were U.S. made. Now, all the mid to high grade knives are made in Taiwan. The less expensive ones under $40 are made in China. I have two CS that are Taiwan made & are excellent quality. I'm with you on preferring U.S./UK made products over "others". Those of us who are seriously into camping and bushcraft who like to use military surplus have caught the attention of surplus dealers - at least over here because the prices have increased. All the best mate !
Great video. I can't thank you enough for NOT blowing the whistle. I've heard whistles before and have reached the point where as soon as a reviewer puts the whistle to their mouth I stop the video and move on.

I like the thin blade and tough 1095 steel. I may get this. I have other Tops knives and they are great!

It's not that clever really. Sheath is it's best selling point
