The SOB Puncher blade allows you to carry a tertiary weapon on your waistline that can be effectively used in tight spaces when you are unable to get […]

SOG Hand Axe | First Impressions

I recently received the SOG Hand Axe for review. I would call it more of a hand hatchet just because of its size. The SOG Hand Axe is a smaller lightweight hatchet, but don’t let that fool you. Just because of its smaller size doesn’t mean it won’t perform. Two things I noticed immediately once […]

Half Face Blades Crow Scout | First Impressions

Half Face Blades is owned and operated by former Navy SEAL, Andrew Arrabito. Half Face Blades fills the niche of hand crafted knives built for a specific purpose; to be functional and lethal. When Andrew builds his knives, he injects an artistic feel to them. Don’t be fooled though. Many of his knives, although they […]

(Article originally published on Breach Bang Clear) Monday Night Knife Fights: Three Finger Stabber, the Wilmont K23 Dave Merrill You may recall that we paid a visit to Wilmont Knives a couple months ago. For Monday Night Knife Fights you’re getting a little more Wilmont, and I do mean little. It’s called the K23 and […]

Emerson Knives | The Desert Roadhouse

If you haven’t been able to tell by now, I’m a huge Emerson Knives advocate and user. My first ever Emerson Knife was the famous world-renowned CQC-7. Since then I’ve used other knives from other manufacturers, but I always find myself going back to my Emerson Knives, nowadays that is all I carry. My regular everyday […]

SOG Key-Knife (from Base Camp Echo)

(Article originally published on The Martialist) SOG‘s Key-Knife, which I obtained from sponsor Base Camp Echo, is one of those brilliant little tools that makes you wonder out loud, “Why didn’t I think of this before?” Specifically, I’m talking about how handy it is to have a cutting blade right on your keychain. It’s possible […]

One-Hand Knife Opening Tactics: Looking Back

(Article originally published on The Martialist) A curious feature of some state laws outlawing switchblades is the exemption provided therein for hunters and fishermen. This is because, on some level, even politicians understand the utility of a one-hand knife. It is for this reason that one-hand blades have become the standard for knives carried by […]

Minuteman Adjutant Knife | First Impressions

The Adjutant knife by Minuteman seemed like it was going to be a small knife (almost too small). Once the knife arrived and I opened the package I was pleasantly surprised. Yes the blade is on the small side, but the handle is just long enough to give you a full hand grip on the […]

Chris Reeve Sebenza 25 | 6 Month Review

I received the Chris Reeve Sebenza 25 about 6 months ago from Knife Art. I have been carrying the knife off and on for 6 months now. At first I was a little hesitant just due to the value of the knife and not wanting to risk either damaging it or getting it stolen. I […]
