Ammunition technology has improved drastically over the last 30 years, more so than the 100 years preceding it. Such leaps and bounds are not always unqualified successes. For every two or three steps forward, there is a step back. Liberty Ammunition’s Civil Defense line has a small but mostly positive buzz. How would it fare when […]
(Article originally published on The Martialist) SOG‘s Key-Knife, which I obtained from sponsor Base Camp Echo, is one of those brilliant little tools that makes you wonder out loud, “Why didn’t I think of this before?” Specifically, I’m talking about how handy it is to have a cutting blade right on your keychain. It’s possible […]
Ever find yourself surfing around on the internet and stumbling across an item thinking ‘holy crap that is cool’. Well that is how I found the TEC Accessories P-7 Suspension Clip. Yeah it’s not some super cool tactical piece of gear, but for that smaller flashlight or pocket knife you carry in your pocket, this […]
In the past I was never a huge fan of sling bags, but that is starting to change. In my quest to be more of a minimalist with my kit, the sling bags force me to carry only what I need. Sling bags are also easy to carry through airports, venues with large amounts of […]
(Article originally published on Spotter Up by Nate Morrison) The recent Every Day Carry (EDC) trend has been interesting to say the least. I am always amazed at how things that were normal for many of us suddenly become these huge viral trends among the civilians and city dwellers. I have always carried a knife […]
We haven’t brought you a fresh knife review in a great long while, so I figured that if I came with a new blog post about a knife, it had better be something truly fantastic. That being said, I got around to picking up a knife that I have been cautiously eyeballing for no short […]

Hogue will soon be shipping their first button lock flipper knife, called the X5. The knife features a new patent-pending blade retention device and marks a number of other […]
Joe Caswell stunned the knife world this week when he posted a short video of his morphing karambit prototype on social media. Caswell has won multiple awards for mechanical innovations in the past, and brought all his self-taught engineering know-how to bear on this jaw-dropping design. With the excitement the knife has generated, there is little doubt we’ll see […]
My initial impression of the SOG Mini Vulcan was WOW! Typically, when you get a knife with the word “mini” in the name you get a product that is too small in the hand and has no heft to it. Not the case with this blade. I have medium-sized hands and the handle is long […]
In June, we took a survey to learn which pocket knives our readers believe should never be discontinued. Respondents were asked to name as many or as few pocket knife models as they wanted, and no brands or blades were off-limits. 404 respondents named a total of 268 models and the average respondent named 4.1 […]
