I wasn’t around to see the fad but rumor has it back in the early 2000’s hydration bladders were so in you could find them in every school, shopping mall and skate park. I was busy filling up my hydration pack (downstream from goats and cows) a few thousand miles away in the sandbox, but I’m confident the […]
When it comes to belts I am not a fan of them, never have been, but I see the use for them in addition to a plate carrier. My main problem with belts have always been the fitting issues under heavy loads they just slip and slide around. I understand that they are a benefit […]
The RECCE/ Sniper Chest Rack was designed and developed on the battlefield by Special Operations Snipers. I know we hear the word “operator” being thrown around a lot when it comes to the military community or gear, but what makes it “operator” worthy?

Since age three, I’ve been clumsily sliding down hills with skis attached to my feet. It’s truly a passion of mine. No other sport allows as much freedom, variety and exilleration as Alpine skiing.

The Southern Grind Knife Company’s Bad Monkey knife is a hell of a knife and that’s why It’s being highlighted today. Sure lots of knives can be great and we have featured many of them here on the site, Emerson, Kershaw, Gerber and many other top brands, but this one is just inches ahead of […]
StatGear is making a move into the wider knife community with its new Ausus folder. Originally intended to be a small batch Kickstarter project, sales were so strong that the knife will join the regular StatGear lineup. “It has a very linear, retro-tactical look, without any extra grooves or flourishes,” StatGear Founder Avi Goldstein tells us. “I wanted […]
There are a lot of great everyday carry fixed-blade knives out there, and being the closet blade nut that I am, I’m always excited to get my hands on a new knife.
