Originally founded in 1979 under the name Bali-Song, this California knife manufacture was best known for their quality butterfly knives. Moving their way up the west coast and finally settling in Oregon in the 1990’s with Benchmade as their new company name. Although Benchmade currently offers a wide selection of knives, they still pay tribute […]
Back in the day when you wanted a hardcore knife for field use there was only one place to look, Randall Made Knives. Founded by Bo Randall who made his first knife in 1937 and founded the company in 1938 in Orlando Florida, Randall knives have been the go-to knife or soldiers, sailors, Marines, huntsman, […]
When I look through my collection of folding knives, I notice a lack of variety in the size department. With many of them falling into the more common 8″ to 8.5″ overall length. In fact, the smallest knife I own is the ZT0450CF at 7.4″ and 2.4oz. Hardly a mini. That’s why I was intrigued […]
*Republished with permission from Hooks & Ammo The Gerber Paraframe knife has been my current everyday carry knife for a few months now. I like the features of the knife and at the price point, the knife is a great deal. Gerber is a respected name and their products have always been well made and have […]
Having owned and reviewed several knives from Zero Tolerance over the years, I kinda know what to expect with new releases.

I am lead breacher on my SWAT team and am always looking for little hand tools that can be easily carried on our kits. There have been many times I left my ram at the door, only to find there were other breach points throughout the objective. I need look no further than the Gerber Mini […]
Growing up, my Dad and I watched MacGyver every week to see what new things he would do with his Swiss Army Knife to get out of a bind. I also remember my Dad always having a Swiss Army Knife in his pocket regardless of what he was doing. My Dad preferred the Executive style of knife […]
The ESEE-6 is one of the best survival knives you can own. This shouldn’t come as a surprise as all products put forth by ESEE Knives/Randall’s Adventure & Training have been met with nothing but high praise. The ESEE lineup is exactly what we want our gear to be, not just made in the USA, but the […]
The Gerber Covert F.A.S.T Knife is a nice little piece of tactical history in your pocket. The first thing I noticed before it was out of the package was the signatures on the blade, Fairbairn & Applegate. For those that don’t know, Fairbairn is kind of a tactical legend from the early part of last century. He […]
