Most people think of SOG as full spectrum knife/tomahawk/multi tool company. But new for 2016 is a break from tradition and their introduction of “soft goods” including 6 backpacks ranging in volume from 12 liters to 35 liters. All constructed of high quality materials and features, just like SOG’s bladed tools. While wandering aimlessly through Shot Show this […]
Fox Knives recently revealed it would be expanding its value-oriented Black Fox line in 2017, with several new models slated to join the budget catalog. First out of the gates is the Nidhug, a tactical slipjoint folder designed by Mikkel Willumsen that brings Fox style to the masses in a sub-$50 package. Designed for wide legality, it has a stiff back […]
Editors note: One of our loyal readers and owner of a CRKT Heiho knife contacted me the other day offering a quick tip to make the CRKT Heiho a little more usable. Here is what he had to say. “I like it very much but I found it to be “slick” in the hand. I […]
The next knife to roll out of the shop at Three Rivers Manufacturing (TRM) will be a retro-styled framelock flipper called the Thunderbird. Reminiscent of classic American car design, the company hopes the Thunderbird will help it race to the front of the high-end production knife pack in 2017 and beyond. Designed by company founder Les Halpern, the Thunderbird’s distinctive geometry injects some new life […]
I just recently first heard of the Schrade Fixed Karambit blade while watching a video on SOFREPs Facebook page. Kurt T. was covering his everyday carry when working abroad. I know when I have traveled both overseas and within the US I typically shy away from carrying anything too expensive. I always like to have […]
I received my Lansky Sharpening stone right before Shot Show 2017 and barely had a chance to look at before running to Las Vegas. Now that I’m home I finally have a chance to look it over and I’m probably well past due to sharpen a few of my favorite knives. The Lansky Sharpening Paddle […]
Hot on the heels of his latest CRKT model called the Remedy, and a custom collaboration with maker J. Bin, Liong Mah is introducing the Endevour into his line of high-end production knives. Mah says this big blade is the truest expression of his style yet and sets the stage for a full slate of releases he […]
I recently received the Roll-Top Scout pack from Duluth Pack. This pack is a little different from most, but at the same time very versatile as a day pack. The biggest difference is the roll-top design; similar to how you seal a dry bag. With the unique roll-top design you are able to increase the […]
The Karambit design is an extremely effective design when used for personal defense. The curved blade will slice right through clothing and flesh with very little effort. It is not designed to stab and will not reach vital organs, but it will inflict enough damage on any threat allowing you to pop smoke and get […]
