Which will they replace, the knife or his head?

There's truly only one way to find out

How do you like that? I love the look of it. As an EDC fixed blade it looks to be perfect, I just haven't pulled the trigger yet. That knife is high on my list.

I love it. I used to dislike neck knives, but when I tried the MSK it replaced all my folders in carry rotation. the handle is very comfortable and geometry of the blade is just perfect.

I have never heard of a TOPs with perfect blade geometry.
Might have to give it a second look.

Yes it's not like the usual thick edge... It cuts very well, a pleasure to use.

Not to derail the thread, but are you at all familiar with the TOPS Tibo? It caught my eye recently..

Thanks for the response. That may be the next knife I buy. It looks like a great EDC fixed blade. I was torn between a Blackjack model 155 or one of Top's Mini Scandi's. I think you may have convinced me.

Esee Izula.

Becker Bk-24 and or Bk-11 or Izula but would also recommend saving a little more and get the Bradford Gaurdian 3

One more for izula. Pick up a sharpshooter sheath and drop it in your pocket of choice.

I highly recommend the Bradford guardian 3. It fits the bill perfectly and the horizontal sheath means a T shirt covers it quite well.

You will love it.

Spyderco Street Beat is also an amazing little knife. I wear it IWB with the G clip at abourlt the 3:30 position. It hides there very well and is comfortable to wear for the whole day. For me it is very important that a fixed blade knife is comfortable to wear.

That Tops Msk looks very nice too.

I highly recommend the Mora Eldris. I edc mine in my right front pocket with no issues. Fantastic little knife that cuts waaaay above it's size class. Mulitple color options and if you forego the neck knife/firesteel kit, it's under $25.

Street Beat meets you list perfectly.

Frisky · Mar 29, 2017

You won't find a better fixed blade for your needs than a Marttiini Little Classic, unless you have big hands. It comes sharper than a Mora and a steeling gives it a true razor sharp edge. It weighs 1.94oz. It's 3.22oz with the sheath, so you don't notice it on your belt. I've used mine to field dress and skin deer and as an EDC, given the light weight. Don't let the low cost fool you.
