@@latetodagame1892 My guess is that while Zac could express what he wanted to say he couldn't fully understand what Carlos was saying, at least not right on the spot.

That Scandi Flipper seems to be a strong favourite, i would love to see some more folding kives from TOPS. Maybe a Friction folder with a tethered pin to put through the tang to make it batonable?
Awesome to see pocket checks of the TOPS knife makers! I'm carrying a new Purple Pro-Tech Malibu, my trusty Leatherman Free P2, Fisher Space Pen Astronaut, and a Surefire Sidekick!
I don’t own a Tops knife specifically (which is a damn shame and something I need to rectify some day soon) but out of all the edc knife makers out there I find myself gravitating toward many of their knives and will quite often use them as a benchmark when looking at other comparable brands/models of knives as well. Certainly one of my favourite knife companies. That scandi flipper for instance is just gorgeous. Really has my interest. Might just have to make that my first Tops knife purchase. Love it. Thank you.
I've been watching Zak for while now he's said a few time he speaks Spanish. In my mind when people who say they speak spanish,, speak Spanish it's like "donde esta la biblioteca" & "escuchar la radio" But man actually speaks Spanish ahahaha
I used to carry on the daily the Tops Roughneck! I still have it but since slimmed down my edc blade! Today it’s the Emerson Elvia, Spyderco Ladybug in K390, Leatherman Charge Ti, RovyVon Aurora A5, Gondeck prybar, CountyComm Embassy pen in brass, Leatherman ratcheting bit extension, LynchNW AAP 2.5, and finally a Memento Mori brass worry coin by JL Lawson & Co.
Jamie for the win.. free p4 is the best.. I lost mine and now carry a supertool 300 and a signal depending on if I'm working or fishing.. they were both gifts from loved ones who knew I was sad about my p4 🤣 I will have another p4 though!!
Got to say, zack is a really good presenter. Been watching him for years, since the blade hq days. Really enjoying this content, if I had a company with an online presence, I'd employ him immediately
He really is a great presenter. I haven't been able to watch a single Blade HQ video since he left. The guys doing it now just, I dunno, can't make myself suffer through their media now lol
You couldn’t afford him! Lol! He’s pretty much royalty in the edc community at this point. Or he should be. But I agree with you. He’d be worth the price.
Very cool video Zac!! I have often wondered what people who make knives actually carry or carry at all. Very cool that everyone had something and some great Tops!! 😉👍🏻
I use my knippers more than anything other than my knife. They end up being used atleast once daily pretty much. Only difference is mine are Irwin brand. Have had em for a few years now. They replaced my mini channel locks. Great video and thanks for the work you put into them. Also I want a job at Topps.
Good on you for knowing another language, brother. I learned a little bit of Portuguese from my pops. He immigrated to the US way back in the day, and he still speaks better Portuguese than he speaks English.
Tops CUT 4.0 is either on my belt or in my pocket - this hasn't changed for 5 years now. Great EDC fixed blade. Other than that a skeletool CX, thrunite Archer, cellphone, lighter, keys (with Victorinox rambler on keychain) and a pen.
Got my Microtech Combat Troodon D/E with custom cerakote, fisher space pen, Grip 6 wallet, carmex, Cold Steel Nation challenge coin, and that's it, trying to find a new secondary knife, the CT just does everything for me already.
Hey Zack, as far as flashlights go, Olight is my favorite I have the warrior s with a 5000mah 21700. Comes with a magnetic charger so you don't have to take the battery out to charge it and it is a great light. Expensive but great. Fenix, streamlight and Nitecore are all great when it comes to flashlights. For cheaper yet still good lights, sofrin and thunite are good.
I like how everyone on the tops team was nice with you, You got your blade sharpened too so it’s a win win ! You’ve gotta appreciate a good leatherman like a surge or charge as well top video as always 😅 You never realise how good a flashlight is in your pocket, am surprised no one else but you and the boss man has carried a lighter with them even none smokers I know have found them useful 😂
They were all really great! I was stoked to see so many multitools. I carry a lighter pretty regularly and as a non smoker use it probably 2-3 times a week in the winter😁
@@zacinthewild You’re the same as me then I sometimes enjoy a smoke but that’s it and you don’t have to spend a lot of money like you would on a leatherman especially for a small lighter
UGh, now I really want that folding Scandi. It's been on my list for a while. Jamie, you got me hooked on the Free P4. (I still love the Surge for heavy work, and it's what I take camping etc. but the P4 edges it out for EDC) It's so slick to operate one-handed, plus it has the fidget factor. I use the pliers, screwdrivers, scissors, and (surprisingly) the saw all the time. I'm currently also using its blade as my primary knife; I'm not super stoked with that but it's working. I also carry an Olight Baton Pro, Fisher Bullet in brass, Knipex XS pliers, a little keychain peanut lighter, and an Esee Izula in 440C carried horizontal, cross-draw on my belt (this could be my primary knife, but I like to keep it clean and super sharp for food prep and "last ditch" scenarios).
@@zacinthewild, mine hasn't left my pocket for about 6 months now. It has its flaws, for sure, but it is brilliant at what it emphasizes: ease of access to the tools. And I like the toolset on the P4. Since I started carrying it, I've found a need for every implement on it except the can opener.
3 things...... one this channel ROCKS......2 TOPS ROCKS and 3 you should get ed on the channel..... he would be awesome to see in a episode..... and I carry my tops street scalpel 2 almost every day...
GM ace grand, emisar d4v2 ti/co, hitch and timber truckers hitch and mini engineer, big idea edc wrench, bit bar, and copper pocket pro, middle earth hank by pocket dimensions...and not in my pockets, I finally got my nicks amercano's (boots)-just got them, my first pair and I'm so excited....great video zac as always 😀
Hey Zac, I’ve been looking at the nicks boots for a while, then you had them in your last video and Taylor Martin mentioned that he might get a pair too. I really like the look of the Americana and the falcons. Thanks Zac
My pocket check: (Left front): Tale of knives in pocket holster: with a Victorinox Compact, Olight SR baton 2 and fisher space pen; also keys with a Leatherman Style PS on the Trayvax Link.

Working in a place that you don’t have to use a safety must be cool, I have to but I use my esee izula or launch 15, write ups later that’s what I use daily 👍🏼
nice review ..what is the brand &model name of the knive mostly popular shown on this video please?what is the brands and models of the flashlights?what is the brands of the edc items open pouch storage for edc items please?where can i buy all items shown on this video please?
A cool shop to visit, over the border from you up in UT would be Dawson Knives in Prescott Arizona. They have some great knives, many out of my budget, but the stars of the show would be the fricken swords. Not far from you, a nice road trip, probably a really cool video if you do some "sword stuff".
I need a TOPS Silent Hero 4 in my life...those look so good. Been rocking a S35VN Camp Creek for a few years... it's such an underrated and discontinued TOPS classic. It's so rad for most outdoor adventures. Mine has served me well and will endeavor to persevere towards more fun!! TOPS KNIVES ... feel free to send me a SH4 for review ;)
Can somebody explain, why all that people carry flashlights? I live in St.Petersburg, and we have here about 4-5 hours of daylight (in winter), but i never needed to carry any flashlight on edc.

Thanks man!👊
Would have never expected in a million years for zach to just bust out Spanish like that 😂 awesome stuff ❤️

@@nikosfilipino or he whipped out a Spyderco and said this one is twice as good.
Well Spanglish lol 😂
Tops have such rad employees. Looks like a great company to work for.
Got a great vibe the whole time we were there!
It’s cool to have an inside look at the folks behind the knives. Helps increase respect for the brand.
They are a great bunch of people!
That Scandi Flipper seems to be a strong favourite, i would love to see some more folding kives from TOPS. Maybe a Friction folder with a tethered pin to put through the tang to make it batonable?
That would be epic!
Awesome to see the crew. I've bought nearly all my Tops knives from Craig at various shows. Thanks Craig!
As a fixed blade enjoyer TOPS is definitely on my list of favorite US knife companies.
Love seeing those Pocket Quivers!! Those guys and gals look like they are having fun at work!
Thank you. Love the Thrunite bss w1flashlight.
Yeah!
What a place to work. Tops has really upped the game on interesting and badass designs.
Always love these pocket check videos. Even better when it's at a knife company.
👊
I love Tops knives. Just got the Black Heat on their Black Friday sale, and then ordered a backpacker’s Bowie from blade HQ. Love those knives!
It's so awsome to see these pocket check videos
appreciate the ads and sponsors being actual stuff you use, its a small thing but it shows integrity.
It’s the only way I’ll ever do it. Thanks for letting me know👊
Awesome to see pocket checks of the TOPS knife makers!
I'm carrying a new Purple Pro-Tech Malibu, my trusty Leatherman Free P2, Fisher Space Pen Astronaut, and a Surefire Sidekick!
Jealous of that Malibu!
They definitely needed to include a company presentation segment to show off more of what they make.
We might have some stuff in the works…🤫

Thanks for the video as always! Your spanish was so organic I love it. I had to cop the black vans beanie.
Thanks for the peak behind the curtain Zac! Another thanks to the TOPS team. Makes me want to get a scandi.
The employee wearing Ed Calderone's Sneak Reaper Scapular and carrying the rapid strike. He also was carrying the L-Via Knife. Well done!
I've been watching Zak for while now he's said a few time he speaks Spanish. In my mind when people who say they speak spanish,, speak Spanish it's like "donde esta la biblioteca" & "escuchar la radio"
But man actually speaks Spanish ahahaha
😁 You should hear my French
Best promotion for that scandi folder I ever saw!
TOPS -- just solid- great vid guys
Always dig your energy, super positive
Cool - thanks! Nice to see a lot of TOPS knives being carried.
They are soooo good!
Great video Zac and Jamie, thanks for all the great content. Keep it up guys.
