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 […]

BENCHMADE 808 LONG TERM REVIEW
When I choose a knife to carry each day, the choice depends on what type of knife interests me the most at that time. Sometimes I prefer to carry a light, thin, relatively small knife, and other times I want a bigger, heavier knife. Most of the time, I’ll choose one knife that catches my […]
Zero Tolerance 0909 Folding Knife
Editors note: The handle scales of the ZT0909 are manufactured from G-10, not carbon fiber as stated in the review. Zero Tolerance also recommends that the only way you open the knife is via the flipper. Never attempt to “flick” the knife open which may cause injury to yourself or someone else. The ZT-0909 folding […]
SOG Vulcan Mini Knife Review
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 […]

Kershaw OSO Sweet Pocket Knife
I have never owned an assisted opening pocket knife before but have always wanted one. From the outside they seemed like they would be flimsy and their action was all for show. Most of the people I had met that brandished an assisted opening blade, were of the “mall ninja” type. I had no real […]
OWN A KNIFE AND OWN THE WORLD!
My good cop buddy used to sell office supplies at the local flea market on Sunday mornings when he was a kid. Every time I saw him he would tell me that one of the really old-timers used to shuffle to his vendor table and tell the same story every time. Between selling hubcaps and […]
Spartan Blades SHF: USA All the Way
For some American knife companies, stateside production is seen as an unreachable ideal. But the crew at Spartan Blades wasn’t willing to look at things that way. “So many people are convinced that to be profitable or successful you have to manufacture overseas, and that just isn’t the truth,” Curtis Iovito, co-owner of Spartan Blades, […]
