Questions and answers

What is the difference between the TOPS BOB Fieldcraft and the Fieldcraft Hunter?

The BOB Fieldcraft is the bushcraft model, with a thicker Scandi grind and a handle shaped for carving and batoning. The Fieldcraft Hunter is a leaner hunting pattern with a finer edge for game work and general camp tasks. Both share the same 1095 carbon steel and full-tang construction.

What steel does TOPS use on these knives?

Both the BOB Fieldcraft and the Fieldcraft Hunter use 1095 high-carbon steel, hardened to around 56-58 HRC. It takes a keen edge and throws sparks from a ferro rod, but it will rust without care, so dry and oil it after use.

Does TOPS offer a warranty on its knives?

TOPS backs its knives with a lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship for the original owner. Normal wear, rust from neglect and damage from misuse are not covered. Keep your proof of purchase for any claim.

How do I sharpen a Scandi grind TOPS knife?

Lay the full bevel flat on a stone and sharpen the whole grind, not just a micro-bevel. Keep the angle consistent and finish on a finer stone or strop. The flat grind makes it easy to maintain in the field.

Where are TOPS knives made?

TOPS Knives are made in the United States at its shop in Idaho Falls, Idaho. The company designs and builds its own blades rather than importing them.

Are there TOPS discount codes?

Deal.ai checks what TOPS products actually cost at every store, so a real markdown shows on this page as a deal as soon as it starts, and each product's page has its price history to tell a sale from its usual price.
