tops iraq-jac?

I have the Scapel, Baghdad Bullet, Ranger Bootlegger. A Devil's Elbow will be here Thursday. My 2¢... Interesting designs, high level of fit and finish, suitable steel, pretty much indestructible.

They have a couple more blades I'll pick up. The Power Eagle, Back Bite, and Felony Stop are on my list.

Plus, they are made on the other side of Idaho from where I live. TOPS is located in the same town as Buck Knives. I visited the Buck factory when they were in El Cajon, CA. This summer I'll ride my bike over to visit both Buck and TOPS (plus Benchmade, Kershaw, etc.) in Oregon.

I just received mine yesterday. It fits my hand good although if it were @1/2 " longer it would be better, I have large paws. The fit and finish are excellent and the edge is sharp as any factory edge i've seen. The micarta scales are set off nicely by the white spacers and the black coating, kinda reminds me of the forend tips on Winchester model 70 rifles.
The sheath is well fitted and retention is great, couldn't shake the knife out. As far as thickness of the blade goes, I like it. I am going to EDC this for a while horizontally below my slight front spare tire overhang and see how well it holds up. Will post pics at a later date.
