Professional Gear Reviews
“Partial EDC, and an answer to the question of what item do I use the most….either Swiss Army knife or flashlight, tough to say. Used the Swiss to cut gum out of a dogs hair yesterday but flashlight gets used daily too.” – Kyle Defoor Products seen in the photo: Streamlight Protac 1L-1AA flashlight Victorinox […]
Recognizing the artistic genius of legendary knife builders, Dmitry Sinkevich and Todd Rexford, Zero Tolerance saw no other choice than to commission a custom collaboration. And with that, the ZT 0850 was born. I’m not sure if this is a daily use knife or a collector’s item so bear with me. Priced at $400, this thing […]
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 […]
I work in an office environment and so try to keep things low-key. Fortunately I also work in the firearms industry so folks don’t freak out on the occasion that I walk down the hall with a carbine or two in hand. What you see here is my standard pocket load: Bersa BP9CC, phone, car […]
Any time I obtain a new gun, I try to run a variety of ammo through it to find which combination shoots best. Different weight projectiles and various bullet profiles can have significantly altered trajectories, with no way to predict (infallibly) which a specific firearm will prefer. With that in mind, I picked up three […]
Let me start by acknowledging the obvious question – why would you want or need a pair of handcuffs if you aren’t a law enforcement professional? For starters, it is good to have a pair to practice shimming and picking to increase your proficiency with them in case you are ever illegally held against your […]
When it comes to everyday carry gear it’s no secret that I am a huge fan of Vertx bags. I have reviewed their Gamut backpack and one of their range bags in the past so I was excited to get my hands on my latest piece of gear the Vertx EDC Courier Bag. This shoulder […]
The Spyderco Bradley 2 and have been going round and round for a few weeks now. When I did my first look I said it was a working man’s knife disguised as a gentleman’s knife. I meant it then, but as I’ve used and abused the knife I’ve learned there is nothing gentle about it. […]
I Don’t know a whole lot about knives, but I do know that they are an essential piece of equipment for any first responder, military member, or anyone who likes to be prepared. Gerber Gear is one of the leading manufactures of knives and their Decree knife is a great option for anyone looking for […]
During my Emerson La Griffe review I was pleasantly surprised. In my experience, folding knives are small and made for the pocket. Fixed blade knives are large and hang off the belt. The Emerson La Griffe defies both expectations. It’s a fixed blade knife that goes on the belt but is small enough to pocket. In the […]
