Professional Gear Reviews
After using the DPx Gear HEAT/F knife for a few weeks as my everyday carry, I am impressed. Yes, it is a small blade at under 3″, but don’t let that fool you. When you grab hold of this knife, you know you’re holding a well-built tool. The handle is beefy and fits the hand very well, with a […]
Season six of “The Walking Dead” is upon us and I find myself engaged by the story and the characters more and more each season. As a Green Beret, I can’t help but analyze the situation and devise strategy and tactics. It is in my DNA. Having seen a couple of countries at war and […]
The Rat Worx MRX line of knives are incredible, to say the least. I’ve always thought of automatic knives as having too many possible points of failure, and not strong enough to withstand rigorous use. But through their many years of research and testing, Rat Worx has come up with a damn-near indestructible automatic knife. Style of […]
The Outdoor Research Cathode Hooded Jacket feels unbelievably light in the hand and is ideally made for individuals on the go in cold environments.

Both companies have roots with the United States military; Emerson Knives started with making custom knives for the West Coast SEAL teams, and SOG Knives originated with the MACV-SOG units over in Vietnam.

Often referred to as “puff jackets,” they pack considerable warmth in a small package. They work by trapping air in pockets insulating […]
I know I’m not the only one who has been riding in a vehicle trying to take a drink from a wide-mouth water bottle when suddenly the driver brakes, hits the gas, or goes over a bump, and you end up in a soaked mess. The MSR Alpine Bottle alleviates those issues while still having a […]
My first impression is that the Siege-R is one hell of a plate carrier! It is very well stitched and feels really comfortable. The exterior cummerbund is very flexible and makes it very easy to adjust the carrier to your exact size. It is also designed to fit side plates. The FirstSpear 6/12 Pocket Attachment System on […]

Water: a simple thing most of us in our daily lives take for granted and don’t think much about, until it’s time to fill the coffee pot. In many parts of the world, it isn’t as simple as turning the handle on the faucet. Waterborne disease such as cholera and typhoid contribute to more than 3.4 […]
