Professional Gear Reviews
Throughout the history of mankind, a sharp knife has been a necessary survival tool. Since the earliest man sharpened a fragment of rock into a crude blade, the knife has been arguably man’s greatest invention (aside from capturing fire, or maybe soap). So when the time came for me to select a knife I would […]
My wife sent me a text regarding a package that was delivered to our house. “You got a really nice backpack from your editor”, she said. It was strange to me because she hardly ever cares enough to comment about the gear I receive for reviews. It made me think there must be something special […]
Like all their gear, Wilder Tactical’s Minimalist Battle Belt was designed with the gunfighter in mind. The textured neoprene interior creates a comfortable non-slip system that eliminates the need for a velcro inner Belt. Constructed with a laser-cut proprietary 1000D Cordura® laminate, this versatile belt pad is the perfect foundation for Wilder Tactical Pouches. The […]
If you need quality kit and are actually going to use and abuse it, Trident Tactical should be on your radar. SEAL founded and maintained, their gear is pretty intuitive, and fills a lot of gaps without re-inventing the wheel. Their attention to detail on the little things goes to show that they listen to […]

Like all Esee knives, the design comes from folks who are noted survival experts. At SHOT Show 2018 I had the chance to connect […]
Ohio based Gadsden Dynamics has been producing tactical gear under the philosophy: there is a niche for a lower profile, simplified kit. Using 100% Berry compliant materials (made in the USA), Gadsden Dynamics has engineered some solid gear while firmly adhering to the K.I.S.S principle. Count me unsurprised when Andy (the owner) wanted to send […]
When I first started looking for a plate carrier I was overwhelmed with all of the options there are on the current market. There are so many companies making plate carries these days with various options and features. I would mainly be using my plate carrier for working out and range training. When I first […]
MountainSmith has been making some of the best outdoor gear for quite some time. I’m no stranger to their tents and have used them on numerous occasions. What excited me is when I was asked to review their Borealis camera bag. I’ve been doing photography for years and have never really settled on just one […]
