I own close to 40 knives, and this is in the top 3. Superb feel in the hand, insanely tough as you have demonstrated. One of the few carry blades I would stake my life on. Also doesn't reek of 'tacticool' or have any pretense of anything but pure functionality for it's intended purpose. Also a BIG bonus is that it is very easy to carry, no rough edges on the sheath - you hardly notice you have it on you. Draws very quickly and the multi-position clip is really unique to TOPS - very robust and obviously extremely well thought out. Can't say enough about this rig.
Rod mate, after reading your thoughts I pulled the trigger. Am very happy.
It's soooo nasty. 😊
This is the only review of this knife on you tube. Thank you.
I'm so stoked you did the review on this I originally so this knife in the 2015 knife buyers guide can't remember what month but I had forgotten about it great stuff
Reminds me of the Cold Steel Spike. Kept me feeling safe during my travels through Italy.
Outstanding review of an outstanding shank! I carry this blade for weak hand draw/weapon retention. The point is ridiculously sharp and the knife is sturdy and fast. I can draw from my left pocket(sheath tucked down into pocket) in a little over 1 second. A great blade with style...... Worlds most dangerous Steak knife! Thanks for the video of my favorite knife.
Thanks! One of my favorite blades, wonderful for those unwilling surgeries when diplomacy fails LOL.
I subscribed because you knew what you were talking about and reviewed the knife without once using the word "tactical", which is very rare on a youtube knife review video.
I would call it a shanktical blade
A good review of the TOPS Lion's Toothpick. I've had my eye on this knife for the last 3, 4, or more years and have been tempted to purchase but held back. No longer. It's a useful and very cool knife to have.
Excellent, I had my eye on this for a few years too, before taking the plunge.
TOPS Lion's Toothpick, deluxe supershank.
Hey there knife and flashlight juggla!! love the channel and have made several purchases based on your reviews. this one looks awesome I just don't want to drop the cash right now on another shank. M48 Highland Sgian is nice. i got a smith and wesson fixed blade with a nice sheath at academy for $20! I got an idea for you, man. You should do a Halloween themed series featuring weapons used by horror characters or against horror characters. obviously jason voorhies duh. slashing and stabbing camp counselors etc.
Operator codename WAJK! huzzah Blade Brother!
I am a big sucker of this shape of knives. Nice video bro
I recently got my first tops knife, so far so good.
Prison shanks are usually plastic but still very effective. I couldn't imagine how much damage this could do. This reminds me of the Cold Steel spike with tougher steel and a way better handle.
Yeah that was my first thought: a high quality version of the cold steel spike line
Great review, I've been waiting for someone to do a video on this knife.
I've seen these for years in knife magazines.... I'm glad you got one and reviewed it!
A nasty tool for a nasty job...
If I was a BA contractor or grunt in the sandbox, I'd want a little booger like this. 😈
It reminds me of a highly upgraded cold steel spike...
Man... The marine being alive and the other guy dead, I cannot imagine the tension of that situation, just how fast you need to make the decision to react and put an end to that encounter you gotta be cold 😬
Thanks for the review..More defense style knives please
Will do!
This blade is nice but my favorite “shank” is the cold steel spike in the drop point variant
I think I just discovered another knife made by TOPS that I really like! I wonder if the sheath can be modded for neck knife carry?
Very cool knife. Great weapon retention knife.
Another excellent video! Comment: To me it looks like it would make a great boot knife. Is there anyway to turn it into a boot knife or will the sheath itself not allow this?
Really nice though I do wish it had a flat pommel so one could push on the back with the off hand.
This knife looks awesome! I must own it soon!
Yes, live the dream!
Lung deflation device 🗡
That's a good one. You are a sick evil predator LOL.
Nonono, he meant it as aquick treatment for tension pneumothorax. This is not a weapon; it is a medical EMT device
Very well made knife I love knives that are made in the USA.
Finally; I high quality well designed version of the cold steel spike
For sure! I have the old Scottish Spike they used to sell.
@@WeAllJuggleKnives I have the newer version and the steel is soft but the design is perfect for its purpose. I have a feeling Tops didn't use soft steel...
Damn i need this
Phew. I can finally stop forge welding my molten Colgate/Pepsodent toothbrush collection. Thanks for the review!!!
LOL, excellent. I also have a toothbrush shank collection, but I just carved them with a utility knife, no melting.
@@WeAllJuggleKnives i want that sweet pink/purple twist damascus
You should do a video testing your knives on Isis members.
1095 is a good choice for this type of knife i think. Love the look of that
Reminds me slightly of my C.K. Dragon. Might have to pick one up.
ya man i would edc this knife I usually carry a 4 inch fixed blade and this looks like a good lighter but still very stout blade not to mention the second kind of cool looking like a hybrid tanto combat knife i really like it =cheers Izzy
have you reviewed the Benchmade SOCP Dagger?
Nice review and nice shank! Big fan of TOPS!
So this is basically a higher quality version of the Cold Steel Spike ? A comparrison between the two would be interesting.
perfect name for this shank.
Great review and thanks!
You should check out the crkt Burnley designed Achi / Akari neck knives.
Would this knife not also be effective for a slashing defense? 4" of sharp steel with lots of reach. If not, why not? You are my go-to guy for edged weaponry expertise.
It can slice in addition to thrust, being thick and narrow it would not slice in as deeply as some other knives, though.
Good review Ben 👍
you should review the tops Street scalpel
"Shanks" playlist?
I suggest people buy a Cold Steel Spike instead. It is a fairly similar knife, but way cheaper and better for the intended purpose. It is currently in 4116 instead of 1095, which is better in my opinion. It will keep rust of far better than 1095, and also keep a sharp edge way longer because of that. That means you don't have to worry about pulling a dull, rusty mess out to defend yourself. If you fuck the tip up, you can still buy another two of them before the cost is about the same of the TOPS knife. I really like some TOPS designs, but their cost and materials choice isn't exactly ideal for me.
Cold Steel Scottish Spike is an awesome little shank, they should bring that one back, I have a few from back in the day, and their newer Bowie Spike.
@@WeAllJuggleKnives Yeah, some of their old ones were definitely interesting. I got the Bowie as well. Figured it would be the most stabby.
What's your all time personal favourite knife?
I dunno, soldiers don't have a lot of money to spend, generally speaking, and there's always the risk of knives "disappearing" while on base. As such, most soldiers I know will not spend $80 for a knife like this, instead spending $25-35 or so to get something a little more disposable, like a Cold Steel Spike, CRKT Crawford/Kasper Dragon, CRKT Obake, etc if they want a "shank" type weapon for close combat.
It looks great, but the sheath is not suited for that kind of knife : how can you release the knife fast enough, when the handle goes so far down the sheath?
Have you reviewed any of Titan International's knives?
So should I get this or tex creek 69?? For just small personal use, mostly a last minute life saver or skinning every once in awhile for whitetail if I don’t have my other knives the lions toothpick is $101 and Tex creek is $107
I would do with Lions Toothpick for last minute life saving :]
@@WeAllJuggleKnives thanks so much! Think I’ll get the pig hunter after the toothpick for apocalypse 😂😂😂
How does it fit in your hand in a thrust grip?
I hope they make a Lion's sword deluxe in neon green....
that is one sick ass blade man nice
hmm, would comparing it to the bootlegger be a decent comparison? similar size, and I wonder what the shank has a kydex and the other is a nylon turd..
awesome shank. TOPS is a great company .
Good review =)
kinda remind me of the yukanto which is more carriable size
I like Tops, but hate the crinkle material they use, its very resistant when cutting...
Do you like the crkt hissatsu ? The lion 1 to 10 rating ? Let's see it punch through.web gear.
I like the original Hissatsu folder the best. This TOPS knife is a wonderful little shank LOL, 9 out of 10 for being a supershank with a better handle and retention than most.
Hey there knife and flashlight juggla!! love the channel and have made several purchases based on your reviews. this one looks awesome I just don't want to drop the cash right now on another shank.

I have a lot of chef's knives for the Michael Myers angle, too.
Good video
Looks like a steakhouse knife. Until you see the thickness. How, thick was that? 3/16? Got to be over an 1/8
They need to market it as stealth knife with a slimmer/ stealthier sheath
Say that 5X fast lol
That's my cup of tea
Which is better Yukanto or this one?
I like the handle on this better
oh man! that is one cool looking blade! I would also like to apologize for asking for a shout out a couple weeks ago at the time I didn't know it was begging. I'm sorry if it was asking to much or disrespectful your friend Josh - coolkid survival
No problem, bro, I'm subscribed to your channel, keep up the great work.
thanks
What knife did the marine have ?
Ka-Bar D2
7 years later in 2023 that 80$ knife is now 160$
Just got this!!! Love it 😁😁😁!!! Lion's Toothpick? Hmm.. More like Tops Hokey Pokey or Shankgrila! Take your pick... 😉
When diplomacy fails, this will not! :D
Zero dark 30 plz
wicked
Have you looked at the TOPS Legion 6.0? Much better knife for this use.
You're comparing two very different sizes of knife.
Yes, I know. However I think for a true combat type knife, the Legion 6.0 is better. I have "shanks" etc (Cold Steel Spikes come to mind) and for that use, you dont need to spend $60-80 on a blade. If all you are doing is poking holes in something, which this is made for, then it doesn't need to be so pricey.
Basically I really just wanted to know if you looked at it. I got a hold of a Legion 6.0, sanded the sandblast coating off and blued the blade, removed the clip and added a belt loop in leather. I call it my Black Legion

Have a good day, brother.
what would be the best way to carry this for urban edc?
I would find a way to carry it in a pants pocket. Sometimes I make little sheaths that are more like just thick blade guards and I clip them inside the pocket with a carabiner. But as far as using this sheath, maybe horizontal with a long shirt or jacket covering it on the belt.
WeAllJuggleKnives thank you, all very good ideas
Beautiful knife. I would drop the "pick" in the mane, yes, mane!
I would have named this "The Un-Friender," I think it has a nice social media flare to it, someone should make a knife named that.
How about making a knife just like that one but only for shanking women and calling it the "The Insider"
now we're all waiting for that top 5 shank vid lol
Top 5 Blades to add a few holes to people who don't have enough of them. I have a video in the works, but it is going to include longer blades too, so it won't only be shanks.
That grip is a deal breaker right away. I don't like knives that dictate how to hold on to it.
It is true, a neutral handle has several advantages vs contoured handles.
Can you do me a favour?
Can you tell your marine friend, he's an absolute badass?
I lost contact with him. He actually had a channel here on RUclips years ago, featuring guns and knives. I think he removed it though, because he kept almost getting into fights in the real world and the channel would have counted against him if he beat the life out of someone.
The sheath looks terrible. It doesn't look like it allows for a proper grip.
These are now $96.00
The only thing I dislike about this knife is the grammatical error.
I'm very serious, as a heart attack, Those Isis, are frightened of a Knife, They say they would rather be shot instead. Serious.
Bladder draining device.
And once again....epic stabbing techniques demonstrated by WAJK!!
It's not $80! It's $124! For a shank.
True, TOPS have always been expensive. I've made shanks from $1 BBQ skewers that were pretty deadly. I use then for throwing knives, but they would shank.
@@WeAllJuggleKnives I guess I don't want to carry something that just appears to be some wicked tool of destruction.
@@WeAllJuggleKnives okay, I've changed my mind. I want one! How do you feel about yours now. Can you talk me out of it?
@@latetodagame1892 - It's a great tool for it's purpose! :] Talk you out of it? Well. I mean, I've made shanks from BBQ Skewers and from Landscaping Nails, for only a few dollars. Very deadly. So if someone only needs a literal shank, there is no need to buy a nice knife like this, but I think this knife grants good pride of ownership, and also you don't have to do the work of fabricating the shank yourself. If you only need this one time, it is worth it!
Say Heah Is, Just what I need a Toothpick. But how do I fit it in my Swiss Army Knife heh heh heh.
DEC. 2022 $124.95 Inflation is real people, let's go Brandon, Trump 2024!!!
It is definitely going to be a rough year!
