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 […]

The Kershaw Injection 3820
Kershaw’s Injection 3820 is a small frame knife that comes with an incredibly sane price-tag of around 10 dollars. It contains a three-inch, bead blasted, 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade that comes with a straight flat grind and razor-sharp scandi edge out of the box. It is the perfect length for an everyday carry folding knife in most states, but more importantly […]

Kershaw EDC review of the Emerson designed CQC knife line
Having owned several Kershaw EDC knives designed by Ken Onion, I have a lot of trust in the higher-end products that Kershaw produces. However, in most cases you pay dearly for those quality American made knives, and for the average person looking to add a few quality options to their EDC it can be a pain-point. This […]
The Kershaw Barstow: A knife of class and style
The Kershaw Barstow is a fine-looking knife. It’s not exactly old-school hunting knife or super modern tactical fighting knife. It’s more like it steeped out of the 1930s and is wearing a fedora and smoking a Lucky Strike. It really has a classy look to it. The spear point blade only has a single edge, but […]
These 31 New Tactical Knives Are Built for Hard Use
Courtesy of Tactical Life Every year, the cutlery industry debuts a ton of new models, and as in every past year for the last several decades, I have once more discovered that the death of the tactical knife “fad” is just more wishful thinking by certain traditionalists. If anything, it is picking up speed rather […]
Kershaw Knives Rove | First Impressions
Another day, another chance to review whats new in products that matter to you. Today I’m opening up a blade from Kershaw, the Rove. It wasn’t too long ago I reviewed another Kershaw knife, the Westin. I mention this because I can immediately spot a few similarities and given how highly I think of the Westin, […]
Everyday Carry: International Travel
During international travel, I needed reliable everyday carry gear that wouldn’t break the bank in the event it got lost or stolen. Here’s what I carried.
New Kershaw Hops & Malt folding knives
Kershaw Malt and Hops knives The Malt and Hops are two new knives from Kershaw and custom knifemaker Gustavo Cecchini. Both feature Gus’ characteristic sculpted style but also have an interesting feature that (we admit) just may have been inspired by the fine brew we were sharing with Gus at the time: a flipper that doubles […]
First Look | Kershaw Launch 7
Once I started writing for The Loadout Room over 2 years ago, I quickly realized how big a part of our culture EDC knives are. My first product review just happened to be a ZT 0350 knife and since then I’ve covered many additional folding knives as well a fixed blades. New for 2017 is a product from Kershaw […]
