I recently acquired this Zero Tolerance 0460TI and was immediately drawn to its pronounced ergonomic design. Similar to the original 0460 by ZT the folder fits neatly into the hollow of your hand, giving you a comfortable and secure grip on the tool.

Gerber Gear has long been a household name for knives, multi-tools, and other equipment.

For those that don’t know, Fairbairn is kind of a tactical legend from the early part of last century. He […]
The Gerber Gator Clip Point folding knife with serrations was my first real field knife. I purchased it at the PX on base at Camp Lejeune when I needed a folding knife for the field. We were getting ready to leave on a training deployment to Northern California for Mountain Warfare Training for a month. […]
Hoback Knives is a brand we are now taking a closer look at on the Loadout Room after our initial impressions of the MK Ultra we recently reviewed. The Hoback Knives Hero Series are nothing short of works of art. Although they are really nice looking blades they are meant to be used as tools, […]
It has long been known that the government was involved in experiments involving mind-control. Project “MK Ultra,” is probably one of the most widely recognized of these. It involved hypnosis, LSD administration, sensory deprivation, among other techniques. At this point, you’re probably wondering how this correlates with Jake Hoback’s Kwaiken-style knife, dubbed the “MK Ultra”? […]
