I’ve personally purchased and tried just about all the products that Johnny Slicks produces. Known for their handcrafted organic beard oil and pomade, they have a few other products too.

Bravo Concealment Torsion 3.0 holster
Bravo Concealment hits the nail on the head when it comes to Kydex holsters. Simple, innovative, and priced well. Their new Torsion is upgraded with an even stronger polymer and an adjustable retention screw. I can’t recommend them enough. Check out the video for my thoughts on the new Bravo Concealment Torsion.

Toor Knives Raider: Designed to be the perfect belt utility blade
I love thick knives. They survive the rigors of the field better than the thinner blades I’ve seen in many “survival” and “utility” knives. I use my knives quite a bit. At a minimum, they are doing 1-2 weeks in the field per month building fires and gutting animals. I’ve seen many knives break in my […]

Buck 112 Auto Elite Folding Knife
When I was a kid, I almost always bought a cheap “switchblade” comb at the county fair every year. It seemed every detective movie I watched with my grandfather featured a switchblade at some point. I always thought automatic knives were super cool, and my grandfather carried a Buck pocket knife daily. So, I was […]
CTS Targets: Range-ready steel
A while ago I started penciling in the idea for an article titled “the expectations of accuracy”. Without diving all the way in, it’s all about defining your acceptable level of accuracy in training to match your required level of accuracy in the real world.
