TOPS Grim Ripper Model GRPR-01

[@PowerMadHeadBanger]

In the name of the people who like push daggers thank you very much for your push daggers reviews.

[@TheseusTheDestroyer]

Hey Bob, I've been taking martial arts for about 7 years and in my opinion it's best held between the index and middle finger, since the best knuckles for punching are the index and middle finger knuckles, making for a more natural punch. Thanks!

[@EnduringEagle]

Are you buying one?

[@TheseusTheDestroyer]

No, This particular push knife is too big for me

[@SharpChronofighter]

This is truly a beast of a Push!

[@TheBoxingCannabyte]

I'm getting this ASAP as my third EDC knife. I carry a Becker BK-11 (getting the micarta handles for it soon, use the TDI clip) a Spyderco Tasman Salt (serrated, black) and a Spyderco Endura in my left pocket, but this on my right side and the bk-11 on my left (or this on the small of your back as you said) would be perfect. I train in FMA, Krav Maga, Jeet Kun Do and have done boxing since I was 10 years old, I'm 28 now so a push-knife is perfect

Sold! Great review btw...

RE: "king of push knives". I haven't handled a tops push knife, but I have checked out and carried a few cold steel models and handled one from special circumstances. It's far and away the best push I've ever handled. The fit in the hand and design style is excellent. The resulting wound is also impressive. Carbon fiber and titanium combine for a really nice defensive fixed blade. Hopefully in the coming years I'll have enough cash for one. Regardless of the material, the design was the part that really hit it home for a defensive knife. Special Circumstances Inc. - Dominus Pushdagger Tissue Test. That all being said, I like the look of this knife. I've handled a few of tops knives and they seem like a great value for the money. But usually like cold steel, each knife always has something "off" about it. The grim ripper is no different. I would want basically any defensive push dagger I own to be double sided. Don't see much of a point it this knife's blade shape either...or the serrations. But that's me and what I would be carrying it for.

Awsome knife and Great Review!!! I am ordering one right now! Love Tops. If Bob says this is the King of Push Daggers then it has to be an excellent product!!

[@torch_ss5797]

Wow,...serrations that I actually like.

[@michaelrich5873]

how much money does it cost?

[@eyeker_8422]

With that you guys would test them.....

[@TheBoxingCannabyte]

Though I must say I think what I'm really paying here (you can find these for $90 now, btw, folks) is not so much the material, my BK-11 is actually better as it's 1095 CRO VAN and it has a higher HRC rating. The Micarta handles are an extra $20-30 so that puts the entire package with the clip at $65, the knife's original price. What you're paying for is mostly the deisgn and the good product, the kydrex sheath, the 1095 (non cro-van but still good, I believe the HRC is 56-58 on these ones) drop-point tanto and really nice serrations, I must say. What amazes me is my BK-11 is 5.5" and this is 6.5 but really looks about 2-3x bigger. Though the BK is very minimal. Anyway, love the review, love the knife, can't wait to get it, to stab me wife. ;)

Tops makes good products, but man, they come up with the goofiest names for their stuff.

[@TrangleC]

Sometimes their products themselves are pretty silly too, like that one knife that supposedly is made specially for pilot rescue teams and has a saw on the back that according to TOPS is meant to saw through the hull of a aircraft or helicopter and it isn't even a saw with small teeth like real metal saws have them, but looks like the saw on the back of the old Rambo survival knife. To me TOPS seems to just churn out whatever weird design they just happen to dream up and then they pull some military themed marketing out of their ass and sell their novelty knifes as battle tested soldier gear. Nothing wrong with a thick piece of 1095 steel and a full tang design and I'm not saying the quality of TOPS knifes is bad, I just find it silly and ridiculous that they have to market every knife as some military wonder weapon when many of them look more like something a character on a Star Trek show episode would wave around than like something a sober minded soldier would actually want to carry around with him.
