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 […]
To be proficient in any discipline you must train constantly and with vigilance. To shoot, operate, and fight well you must practice whenever possible. Finding a school or program to meet your needs takes time and much research. Fortunately there are many reputable and top-notch schools that are taught by former SOF and Law Enforcement personnel that […]
“October is going to be a month of options from TOPS Knives,” says Marketing Director Craig Powell. “We have plenty of releases coming that give coating, handle, and sheath alternatives for knives we already make,” Powell tells us. First up is the Brothers of Bushcraft (BOB) Fieldcraft knife. TOPS is breaking out seven new handle colors and replacing […]
(Article originally published on kyledefoor.tumblr.com) Boots have always been on a 2-3 year cycle in my experience. Meaning that you’ll find a good pair, that company makes them for a couple years, then you start again because the company changes something, sends to China, whatever.

A long time ago, 19-year old me absolutely hated gloves. I would bicker and complain about them, and take them off once we left the COP. I was one of those lower enlisted who thought I didn’t need gloves, why would I? After I grew up and saw my fair share of burns I realized […]
(Article originally published on Spotter Up by Nate Morrison) The recent Every Day Carry (EDC) trend has been interesting to say the least. I am always amazed at how things that were normal for many of us suddenly become these huge viral trends among the civilians and city dwellers. I have always carried a knife […]
(Article originally published on Knife News) Yesterday Spyderco revealed that it will be adding two new models to its Salt series for 2017. The lineup of rustproof maritime blades will see a second keychain knife join its ranks in the form of an H-1 Manbug. The Fish Hunter, a new fixed blade design, will be unveiled in […]
(Article originally published on Breach Bang Clear by Mad Duo Chris) I finally own a Ka-Bar. When I was in the Corps we were issued Camillus copies of Ka-Bars, not the genuine article. Later, when I deployed twice as a soldier, I thought adding a Ka-Bar to my gear would have been melodramatic. There wasn’t […]
