Funny you should ask, I was just looking at their site.
Designs seem to range from "cool" to "tactical gonzo".
They're doing an epoxy crinkle-coat over carbon steel. Ohhhhkay...first, that can screw up your ability to fine-cut meat, second, it leaves a lot of nooks'n'crannies to hold "old food". A knife that you might rely on in the woods shouldn't be a food poisoning risk. Hey, maybe I'm completely off on that part but...dunno, I've seen that sort of finish on other metal stuff and it's the first thing that occured to me...esp. as it gets old and the "bubbles inevitably break down".
Next, they're doing 1095 steel. OK, that's a good ol' fashioned "simple high carbon steel". Very tough, quite good for use in a fighter or woods survival knife...but...now look at the prices?
They say they're cryo-treating 'em (dunking in liquid nitrogen) but, the simpler steels don't seem to respond nearly as well to cryo as the more complex tool steels and esp. stainlesses such as ATS-34, the CPM steels, etc.
Naw. I'd rather pay less and get a better-designed handmade in 1095 offa Newt Livesey.
(Note on the "tactical" part: one of the most difficult types of fighting knives to make is something big yet "balanced with a light agile-feeling tip". I can basically count only half a dozen vendors of same I've ever encountered. TOPS ain't one of 'em. Not that you'd want to use such a thing for wilderness survival anyways, unless you spend a LOT of money...to get a "tip light" feel, you need a continuous taper all the way out to the tip, which makes for something (relatively) delicate unless it's made o' "supersteel". The cheapest pieces like that I'm aware of are the Ontarios designed by Bill Bagwell and produced under license...the "Gambler" in particular is an 8" blade that just feels KILLER. No good in the woods, too delicate a tip but if the problem is a streetfight, for the price (under $150) and size class it's unmatched.
If that's *not* what you want, cool, go buy a Becker and get better steel, better "utility grip", which can be unbolted so you can completely clean it or lash it to a stick. With the money you save over a TOPS, go buy a well-used-but-functional S&W model 10
