I’ve recently been diving into body armor. I did a post on concealed soft armor and wanted to do the same for concealed hard armor. Soft armor is designed specifically to defeat most handgun threats. It doesn’t do anything to protect you from rifle rounds. For protection against rifle projectiles you need hard armor and […]
When it comes to choosing the stuff you keep strapped to you on a daily basis, there are a number of things you need to take into account: the environments you’re normally in, the laws in your particular state and county, weight, mobility, and perhaps most important of all – comfort. It may sound awfully soft of […]
Gerber was without a doubt the most popular multi-tool brand while I was in the military. Chances were if I saw a Gerber, it was probably one of their Multi-Plier 600 models. I’m sure one reason was that the shelves of every AAFES store on the installation were littered with Gerber products, but they also […]

I’ve been a knife guy for the better part of my adult life, almost always having at least one knife on my person somewhere. Majority of the time I prefer knives with a blade length of no more than 3.5″ for a few reasons, but mostly to skirt most restrictions on blade length. Many local […]
This is the “Cadillac” of multi-tools. The Charge TTi is the best money can buy and it does cost a lot of money, but it’s worth every damn penny. Leatherman, or specifically its founder and CEO, Timothy S. Leatherman, is the father of the multi-tool. Starting with his very first one, The Pocket Survival Tool. […]
Plowing through a sea of folding knives there lies great difficulty in finding new innovative designs.
