I really hoped this was going to be a stainless offering of the el pionero.

[@CDS.26]

Same man.

[@daniel-lee888]

Yeah was hoping for at least 154CM... but no.... disappointed.

[@eugenevictortooms4174]

@daniel-lee888 yeah, I would have been happy with 154CM.

[@kaden974]

El pionero would be dope in stainless steel ... we are in 2024

[@CDS.26]

I was really hoping it was going to be in a stainless steel but the black is cool.

[@NZComfort]

I’ve had the original for a while now, definitely recommend it.

[@the_realist_John_Doe]

Use my original El Pionero daily. Might retire it to kitchen work and grab a black version for a new daily use knife. Nice.

[@fg63-6]

It's a really cool knife, I just wish it was in uncoated stainless ...

[@johnmorgan4405]

Good luck finding one.

[@TheGunsNBlades]

Got one on order for the rest of the TOPS Knives Collection 👍👍🇺🇸

[@JOHN-fx3xo]

Yea please. So nice.

[@EverydayBladeCollector]

I can't wait, I'm a big fan of the tan one so I'll definitely be getting one

[@primeministersinister625]

One day people will stop spending 200 dollars on 1095.
I can’t believe people are still getting scammed by this

[@olvera6710]

That’s the only reason I haven’t bought one. I got a pukkoo from them about 4 years ago and it’s great but it’s still only 1095 and it was close to $200. I hope tops at least moved up to sv30 or 14 sandvik at the very least.

[@KyleFranks-r5u]

I WANT THEM TO RELEASE THAT FILET KNIFE THEY SHOWED A YEAR AGO

[@МУЅТ]

Man they’ve been stagnant lately. Came a whole year and the only thing you could show off was a recolor of last years knife. Wanted more from them

[@nunninkav]

The small EDC pocket fixie is the way to go. Tac Black 🖤

[@Dan_Hazard]

Would love to see tops make a knife like the tyler denney apprentice, and actually work with tyler as well ❤

[@DroogyT]

Mine!

[@matthewletiziano8440]

I appendix carry the OG daily. Reverse grip edge out.

[@eskee1]

Smoke one George you seem very uptight

[@sandoval1529]

When is this finally coming out?????

[@SparrowhawkTheKind]

Any idea when this will drop?

[@Odigs6547]

More 1095…..

[@lucasfff1370]

How much does it cost?

[@nunninkav]

Welll, it's a Tops. So, if you have to ask, then you probably shouldn't consider it.

[@TheMainMan.]

Probably 150ish. Just guessing

[@TheMainMan.]

​@nunninkav Tops is lower middle class quality. They're better than a bunch of other crap out there, but they're not top tier.

[@kla2749]

stainless pleasee

[@Thief-d3c]

Pass.. I hate it when they print black out on the blade. We can see it’s blacked out.

[@genbud78]

Boggles my mind why anyone would want that.

[@nunninkav]

Why not? It's tactical, functional and portable. Can handle 75% of knife tasks.

First 😂

[@pinkyellowblue007]

But it's TOPS so it's junk, the heat treat isn't right so it will fail on you when you need it the most.

[@NZComfort]

Why do you say that?

[@1rstTry]

Yeah ok bro 😂

[@jkn2k]

Facts !

[@eugenevictortooms4174]

Tops are known for their good heat treatment.

[@Sunstepa]

1 knife? What? 🤡
