Perfect
This knife fits perfectly in either my or my boyfriends hands. It’s got a great feel and heftiness to it and looks devastatingly beautiful! He absolutely loved it and so do I that now we think we need to get a second one for me!

Nice tool, lousy edge
Overall, I like the concept of this blade, however, the blade has a lot to be desired for holding an edge. After using about three times on some beef ribs ( yes, to test it ) the blade lost it's edge. After several attempts to get the factory edge back, I settled for what I could and placed it back into its sheath. I will probably use this knife as a beater of sorts, I.E., chiseling, light baton work, etc. I would not trust it for EDC, even though by design it would be fantastic. This is my 2nd TOPS knife. The HKT knife I have is what drew me to the Backbite. The HKT holds an edge and is easy to maintain. The Backbite, not so much.

Incredible, devastating
Pros- quality.. AMAZING! Perfect in every way... except.. carrying. Which is obviously an issue. It the knife is mounted somewhere it works. On the body though its alittle tough. I mean anything can be programmed into muscle memory but this one just seems to take an extra precious second to pull. I'm still working out the kinks if at all possible so i'm not sure if it just takes getting used to or it's the sheath. I like my thumb and index to be locked in before the knife is drawn which is not possible with this design. *See pics if you don't understand what I mean. Overall the knife is amazing. Its definitely a discussion piece. And the knife itself once locked in your grip is devastating which is why i'm sticking with it as a daily carry and not putting it on a shelf. Lol. If I have any updates i'll update. Thanks TOPS!

All hand to hand combatants need to have one.
This tool works great for what it was made for. Both for Defence and all Offence purposes.

Dull!!!! Sheath is not versatile ... one sided clip, complicated to use in reverse grip Pikal style Its sturdy, good balance and good for EDC
