Came across a Tops Spie Mil 3.5 when I was searching around, and was wondering what you guys thought about them? I never heard of them until this was mentioned to me.

Tops does a pretty good job on heat treat and generally has a good reputation.
Many here will tell you to steer clear of Tops knives. Most give a reason of "over the top designs" or "their ads are for wannabes". Pay no attention to the haters as most have probably never used one. I have 5 or 6 and all are nice with good fit n finish.

Just looking at the Mil Spie 3 and it looks nice. Reminds me of an ESEE 3. Looks like a good company to me and they're manufactured here in the US.

Would rather go with esee, becker, scrap yard.
Here is a tops knife failing miserably, I've heard this is not uncommon.
