@@TOPSKnivesofficial The Muley Skinner looks awesome. I wonder if the knife will be offered on it's own or will you have to buy the set? Also, that new SureTouch G-10 material seems promising...there's a lot of dive gear that uses rubber materials that are glued together & also I think Craig missed that the BHQ dude was asking about shock absorption (not moisture) in the handle material. Take care.

At 0:57. That's the new UltreX SureTouch from Norplex. Somebody has to test this stuff. I'm glad TOPS is doing it. It looks like nice handle material. I didn't realize it had a rubber feel, though. I bet it works good. I recently tried the new UltreX cotton/paper G10. It's supposed to take a high polish but I'm still working with it. Great upload!

Tops and Spyderco, Bussee and Esse and kabar of course... a lot of good brands out there. I have a busse that ive had since my 4th tour and that INfI steel is no joke! A friend of mine has the Spyderco h1 warrior which might be the toughest fighting knife ever designed...busse comes close. Tops used 1095 crovan just like kabar and the street scalpel is my favorite EDC i cannot recoomend it enough! And the Tom Brown Tracker.series.is.a fantastic jack of all trades

I wish TOPS would put out some versions featuring higher quality steels. A Tom Brown Tracker in cpm-Cruwear, a Tex Creek or BOB Hunter in M4, etc. in 2020, where most respected knife companies are using stuff like s30v as their base steel, it’s hard to justify paying $200+ for a knife in 1095 or 154cm.
