I love that intro and song. Funny thing is I watch every single week and didn’t realize it was missing, I knew something had felt different in recent months but I just didn’t know what it was.
So, I'm hardly what you could call a knife enthusiast. I grew up camping and whittling with my dad and was trying to get back into it, so I found your channel while researching pocket knives. Far and away the best knife channel out there. Video production is top notch, and I've found myself watching stuff I don't even have an interest in buying just because the content is so good and fun. Cheers, guys, and thanks
Love all the content guys! Definitely do more axe and chopper videos! Great job! BTW..."All my life I just want the DBK knife".. I love that song and your knife. One day I'll pick it up if it becomes available again. I've been a fan for years.
That fish in England we call White bait and I love it. It's traditionally served how you did it battered and fried. Usual condiments are lemon mayonnaise and tartar sauce
For chopping there are 2 factors that improve performance: 1) having a longer handle increases leverage & 2) more weight distributed at the head increases force. However, as you guys point out, the Hammer Hawk is intended more as a multi-purpose tool rather than a dedicated chopping tool. If all you want to do is demolish wood 😁, just buy a big axe. If you want something more versatile and reasonably easy to carry, the Hammer Hawk might be a good option (it's TOPS after all, it works). Sharp blades all.
Thanks Guys, got another person in this world hooked on knifes. Got a Mora Garberg last week and loving it. Never seen a bush in my life but its good to know I'm gonna be safe. Praying to the universe I will not buy more knives, but I keep hearing a voice telling me that all my life i just want a DBK knife 😒
Hey guys, I use a for piston as well. I keep one and a tin of charcloth on me at all times. Try keeping one of those small cubes of Vaseline with you also. It helps to seal and lube the piston, a dab will do. Plus, get some fishing line (20 pound test), tie it securely around the piston where it and the handle meet. Cut the line just short of double the piston length. As you put the piston into the cylinder, last the line across the opening in the center and then insert the piston. The line breaks the seal and you can close the piston fully. This keeping it clean of debris and is always ready to use. Try it, it does work and makes the piston last and work for years.
Another awesome video. I bought one of these a couple of years ago and love it. One observation though is that it is heavy in the handle but light on the head weight.
Tops are really interesting knives. Not everyone likes the design but everyone respects their quality control. Also I love hearing Mikkie B Boy the break dancer saying that axe name.
Nice one fellas! Never looked at Tops much, but after picking up a fieldcraft 3.5 more of their catalogue is starting to jump out at me. Cheers from Tasmania
Love this video! Also really loving the music from your band!! Looking for a good EDC knife now, currently carrying a Swiss Army Soldier’s Knife. The newer model. I know I need to get a better one, lol.
I have to invest in some more Tops knives. They are just so good. I have the Cut 4 and love it. Still hoping for a Cold Steel Leather Neck clip point review.
Richard the lll met Saladin on the Crusade. He pulled his two handed broadsword and with a mighty swing cut an anvil in half. Saladin tossed a silk scarf in the air, drew his damascene scimitar and held it edge up. The silk floated down and cut in half on the sword. Apocryphal story: But edged tools Should be judged on finesse too. Christopher
I would enjoy a video comparing different uk/euro legal slip joints. Perhaps knives like the Manly Wasp, Spyderco UKPK, a Victorinox pioneer, a traditional slip joint clip point etc. 🤷♂️
Great video, enjoyed it a lot!! I personally will be staying with my G.F. Axe for chopping and my knife(s) for smaller tasks, plus a saw for my kit. Would love to see the USMC, OKC-3S Bayonet (not K-Bar) put through all your destruction tests!!! "The Old Gunny".
Hey I like your band! I had to freeze frame this video to make sure I saw it right. In earlier videos I heard the background music and thought damn, that sounds like Mikkie's voice so I checked out the Wodan Boys and yes, it was you lol. You'r band's style sounds similar to the bands I used to see at The Continental in Buffalo, N.Y. in the early 80's. GO!
Brothers! ‘Hawks are not for chopping wood! Hawks are for defensive battle or wartime. Breaching needs aside, “All a tomahawk needs to chop is muscle and bone.”
Have you tested that Pohl Force MK9 that showed up briefly in the ramen advert? I've been wanting to see you put that through it's paces so if you've already done it then I've missed it.
Great video as always guys, have you thought about the APOC : Wailing Moon Yataghan Looks solid but would like to see what your thoughts are Thanks guys 👍

Sissy-veggie-ramen!
Bring back your theme song! It would make a great outro song
I love that intro and song. Funny thing is I watch every single week and didn’t realize it was missing, I knew something had felt different in recent months but I just didn’t know what it was.
@@poncho151 I didn't notice it either... 😳
This was a great video this week! Very candid and very informative. Y’all are killing it lately!!!!
I think it would be very interesting to see a test of a classic Cold Steel Tanto. Recreating Lynn Thompson’s tests too.
Legend has it that the DBK boys both swing a big, long axe.
And vena sausage peckers
Great I really don't need this but now I want one 😮
What a beast of a tool... weapon... tool.

Thank you so much for these awesome kind words! We appreciate it a lot
Indeed Gabriel. These fellas are a hoot! I remember when they started, thankfully I happened upon them again.😄
A truly worthy comparison would be this Tops "tomahawk" and the Estwing hatchet.
"AND MADE IN THE DAMNED USAAAA" 😂😂😂 best ramen ad ever
Love all the content guys! Definitely do more axe and chopper videos! Great job! BTW..."All my life I just want the DBK knife".. I love that song and your knife. One day I'll pick it up if it becomes available again. I've been a fan for years.
I love noodles. I will support this cause.

Blade/head geometry is everything when it comes to an axe. This is a handaxe, it's not quite a tomahawk and it's not quite a hatchet.
I don't think Vito Ramen could've picked a better channel to sponsor

You Guys are awesome keep up your banter and answers to questions
You guys are always incredibly fun to watch 😄😄

Awesome to see you guys review so many different things omg❤
Another awesome video. I bought one of these a couple of years ago and love it. One observation though is that it is heavy in the handle but light on the head weight.
Best video review of this hatchet I’ve seen.
I've never seen a fire piston, that's awesome!
I want to see more about Rambo's brother
Nice Hawk. Thanks for showing us and take care.
The Estwing axe is pretty good I'd be interested in seeing how it holds up compared to the Tops axe
Great show guys.
Tops are really interesting knives. Not everyone likes the design but everyone respects their quality control. Also I love hearing Mikkie B Boy the break dancer saying that axe name.
I may have to get this to add to my kit
Just yesterday I was thinking about how cool hatchets are
Review a White River Firecraft or the Ursus 45
Loved it, always fun to watch your reviews, maybe for a future video the Extrema Ratio Shrapnel OG FH?
well done fellas luv the clips how about a review of the origin kukri, kukri tracker and kukris for bush survival in general?
Good video 👍👍👍 traditional axe looks better for all tasks, thank you guys!
Another great vid would love to see you guys review the tops brush wolf knife
Qu'est ce qu'elle est belle cette Hachette,je dois attendre si je veux me l'acheter
Superbe vos vidéos les gars
Lol. Video is 10 minutes old, Blade HQ: "axe is out of stock" 😏
Same thing happened with the TOPS Storm Vector 🥲
I have the TOPS Ucon Hawk, 1095 steel and crazy sharp, this hatchet is really good.
“In normal Tops fashion, it dosent give a shit!!” I love it.
be great for a day run or survival pack but every thing else full size is for me great video keep it up
0:16 If they just made the arrowheads on the design thicker and more prominent they could act like a wedge and drastically improve splitting.
Love you guys !
Did you guys see Bark River is bringing back the Gunny Scandi for a limited time. I got one ordered and can't wait for it to get here
Nice one fellas! Never looked at Tops much, but after picking up a fieldcraft 3.5 more of their catalogue is starting to jump out at me. Cheers from Tasmania
can you review a lionsteel t5 in niolox steel
This is the only channel on TY that makes advertising watchable
Haha thank you. We do our best to make them enjoyable to watch. I think it's a win for everyone. Viewer, us and advertising party
nice to see the Granfors back again!
Council tool woodcraft axe is a good one to try also. The top is sharpened to 90 for striking ferro rods.
Great as always guys, keep up the good work.🤘👍👍🤘
Amazing video.
I really like that for a bug out/shtf situation... Pretty expensive tho. I really like how tuff it is.
I’d like to see you give the Benchmade Hunt Taggedout a try. It feels like the outdoorsy big brother of the Bugout.
Take a look at the cold steel survival edge
Tops does some serious black magic with their heat treatment. They make 1095 perform like a super steel.
Absolute bloody Legends 🙂
Love this video! Also really loving the music from your band!! Looking for a good EDC knife now, currently carrying a Swiss Army Soldier’s Knife. The newer model. I know I need to get a better one, lol.
Great review guys. It is a Tops and they are just rugged hard use tools.
DBA guys delivered. 😸👍
It's a TOPS, they're all ready to destroy stuff.
Great video!
I have to invest in some more Tops knives. They are just so good. I have the Cut 4 and love it. Still hoping for a Cold Steel Leather Neck clip point review.
I was just thinking that a WINKLER would be a great idea for a review!! 👍🏼😬
really?
Best noodle ad ever!
Hello Boyz!!!! Another entertaining and informative offering.
Would love to see you bring the new Boker Bronco in CPM 3V to the test, and see how it holds up.
I love your s videos vi from spain

I would like you to take a Look at the condor blackout Hawk😉
Maarten holding Mikkie above his head is super impressive to me
What's that jazzy tune at 2:30?
How about the SRK Compact next?
Tops bushwolf, the design looks looks very interesting and tops blades never disappoint!
I would enjoy a video comparing different uk/euro legal slip joints. Perhaps knives like the Manly Wasp, Spyderco UKPK, a Victorinox pioneer, a traditional slip joint clip point etc. 🤷♂️
Fiskars X7 is a good one as well, or the norden line, budget, sturdy, and lightweight
Great vid, I always enjoy when you have some slow-paced bushcrafting for the tests
Cool vid, guys!
Are you done testing bark rivers considering last videos outcome?
Axe skill unlocked: "axe throw".
Greetings from Cuba ✌️😎🇨🇺
Wow!!! That's 1 tough Hatchett
Great video, enjoyed it a lot!!
I personally will be staying with my G.F. Axe for chopping and my knife(s)
for smaller tasks, plus a saw for my kit.
Would love to see the USMC, OKC-3S Bayonet (not K-Bar) put through all your destruction tests!!!
"The Old Gunny".

Just order some ramen with your link and code. Thank you guys.
13 years in, my GB is still going strong. A few rust spots and handle chips but it chops like an Iron Chef!
Are yall gonna put out another DBK knife?
I LOVE DBK
Please test the Granfors Brux Mini Hatchet. It’s designed by LP to be a knife for backpacking
What is your opinion of the Spyderco Shaman?
Brothers! ‘Hawks are not for chopping wood! Hawks are for defensive battle or wartime. Breaching needs aside, “All a tomahawk needs to chop is muscle and bone.”

Please review a Buck 124 Frontiersman, thanks!
Review the Benchmade Tagged Out.
Please revisit the tops tracker #1… we need to see a destruction test.
Review the FOBOS Alaris! 😊
Have you tested that Pohl Force MK9 that showed up briefly in the ramen advert? I've been wanting to see you put that through it's paces so if you've already done it then I've missed it.
I am in the market for a Hammer backed hatchet. But 300 but is not in my budget. Test out the Schrade hatchet.
In 9:58 I don't think you used Flower :D I think you mean Flour. But video is great as always guys!
Can you test the victorinox special edition
Kizlyar Supreme Ural. Convex grind Sleipner steel bushcraft knife. Would be great to see you test it.
Please review anything by Work Tuff Gear and Hardcore Hammers. Thank you
How about comparing Scotch Eye Wood Auger Drills/Settlers Tools?
WINKLERRRRRRR!!!!
For the love God please review a WINKLERRRRRR!!!! 😬😬😬

Great video as always guys, have you thought about the
APOC : Wailing Moon Yataghan
