    Any opinions on TOPs knives?

    Hi there all, Last October, I was at a local gunshow and spied among thousands of knives a TOPs Tom Brown scout knife. Since I had never seen them sold locally, I shelled out $110.00 to purchase it and brought it home. It seems like a well crafted knife, but I have yet to take it out in...

    Hi there all, This may seem like kind of a lame thread, but what is the most widely used knife/tool in the world? I think it may be the Machete? Of course, I own several because they are so cheap and versatile. You may think it a bit eccentric, but I got my first one almost 40 years ago...
