(Article courtesy of Breach Bang Clear) The Zero Tolerance ZT 0095BW (Black Wash) has been available in the US for about a year now. Unlike many of ZT’s folders, this one was designed and built “in house,” but the lack of a celebrity name has done nothing to subtract from the quality. It’s a production […]
(Article courtesy of Breach Bang Clear) A Quick Look at Dynamis Alliance Fifty Shades of FDE Next to the Line of Fire booth was Dynamis Alliance’s table, which had some very sharp tools on display. After talking with Eli of Dynamis Alliance about the LoF Shooter’s Glove, he took the time to tell me about […]
Walls Outdoor Goods, is a company which specializes in working apparel. Functional, while tough seems to be the underlying theme behind their collections. Walls Outdoor Goods offer a broad range of products which can accommodate almost anyones needs; hunting, ranching, construction, camp-work, logging, hiking, etc. I was lucky enough to get my hands on the […]
Not too long ago I had the chance to start testing Thermacell’s Proflex heated insoles. My initial impressions article can be found here. These are the heavy-duty, premium offering from Thermacell so if these aren’t sufficient, I don’t think any of their options will be. Being adequate isn’t a concern here though. If your worries […]
SOG, known for its tactical roots, is continuing to pursue unexpected product categories. This time they’re doing it with the new for 2017 Terminus slipjoint knife. Like with the Baton multitool series, SOG built some clever engineering into its deceptively simple package. The new knife features a G-10 handle, deep carry clip, and 3-inch CTS-BD1 clip point blade that rides […]
Properly maintaining your tools is crucial to their longevity and performance. Sometimes, that means you’ll need to take them apart. Whether it’s due to rust blooming under the liners or sand in the bearing pivot, this week’s installment in the Knife Maintenance Month series will help guide you through disassembling (and reassembling) your folding knives.

As most students of woodcraft already know, pioneer camping writers George W. Sears (Nessmuk) and Horace Kephart have reached something close to sainthood status with modern knife users. Their field guides made it abundantly clear they had no time for large blades or anything that resembled a “Billy the Kid Bowie Knife.” Nessmuk bequeathed to us […]
First impressions are the rule, but the Salming Race 3, in this case, certainly is the exception. I eagerly anticipated trying out the Salming brand. As a runner who leans towards the natural/ minimal side of the spectrum Salming products offer a happy medium especially when considering a race platform, with their “no nonsense running” […]
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 […]
