Gun memes (or me-mes to those born before 1975) are a great way to share a laugh with fellow Second Amendment enthusiasts and even point out the aspects of firearms ownership that are often misunderstood. If you are like me then you probably have hundreds of these saved on your phone, sitting idly like a…
Want to know what it feels like to be Thor? Try Tannerite. Yes, it’s legal. Yes, it’s safe (as long as you’re not trying to play “William Tell”). And yes, it’s like you just stepped off your mountain eyrie in Valhalla to take Mjollnir for a little spin. Just squeeze the trigger, and the Midgard…
WE Knives is a knife company based out of China that has been at the forefront of the production knife game for a while now. It’s a very high-end brand, but the company also has two other imprints, both at more affordable price points: CIVIVI and Sencut. At the BladeShow in Atlanta, I was struck…

At the NRA show this year in Houston I was walking through the aisle and this guy looked at me and said, “You look like a knife guy.” Well, yeah. Naturally, he took me to the Cold Steel booth and showed me to a case that read “New Releases.” Naturally, one knife called to me…
This isn’t a fever-swamp conspiracy theory; this is happening right now. Ever since the first whispers of a global pandemic began circulating, ammo has been expensive and hard to get. Most of this has been due to panic buying, although global and national supply-chain issues have played a big role as well. Every time the…
Ever heard of Acta Non Verba? ANV is a company out of the Czech Republic, and they have some of the coolest blade shapes on the market.
