Don’t laugh, it’s paid for! There is an old saying that that any gun is better than no gun at all. Times are tough. Things are getting more expensive day by day. For many families the choice can come down to buying a couple of eggs to eat or trying to fit protection into the…
Selecting a holster isn’t as glamorous as buying guns…but it deserves your full attention anyway! Going holster shopping is like going to Sears and getting a new pair of shoes…pedestrian at best. What few realize is the importance of a holster or even the new pair of shoes. A good pair of shoes protects your…
The Fox Wihongi is almost as much fun to use as it is to say. If you’re looking for high-quality cutlery, your first stop should be your native land of America. The second place, in my opinion, is Italy. Home to some of the best knife companies in the world, including the top of my…
Give lost keys, dark sidewalks, and muggers the Atomic Wedgie … er, Wedge. When they say EDC, the important part is the “every day” part of that equation. Ask yourself: Am I really going to carry a flashlight the size of my forearm every day, or am I more likely to carry something that just…
With all the knives I have reviewed from Schrade I think I have found my favorite yet: the Shudder, and I have to admit it gives me a shiver up my spine. It has everything you need in a perfect EDC knife. The size and weight are perfect, and the action is smooth and quick….
Kid at Christmas! Unboxing the CIVIVI Elementum Tanto & Fixed Blade Our own Eoin May of @atoz_reviews got an early start on Christmas this year with two fantastic, gift-ready blades from CIVIVI. As our resident edged-weapon fanatic, Eoin’s reviewing these top-quality, budget-friendly knives with a weather eye for reliability and utility! From unboxing to unzipping…
In the words of the great Willie Nelson: “On the road again!” We are back on the road of reviewing knives from the new relaunch of Schrade. After my last review you may think I lost all hope in Schrade OTFs (Out The Front, or what’s also known as a telescoping or sliding knife), but…
Times are tough when you can’t find .40 S&W on the shelves, yet here we are. This snappy little cartridge has always been the answer for those who want to carry 9mm-sized handguns yet need a bit more punch. Although the resurgence of 10mm Auto has nearly put this round in the grave, there are…
Eoin May asks: How much handgun can you get for under $400? The good news is that, in November 2022, it’s now possible to find guns available for purchase on the shelves. The bad news is that, in November 2022, the money you had saved to buy a gun now buys much, much less. (Let’s…
While we spend plenty of time and effort preparing for two-legged threats, we have to ask ourselves, are we prepared for larger four-legged beasts? Truth be told, I feel that I am more likely to have an encounter with an angry black bear or mountain lion than I am a home invasion, so I like…
I have talked about a lot of different knives from Schrade recently, and I usually have a lot of good things to say about them. I have really liked every knife I have reviewed from them … until now. The Uproar Tactical OTF by Schrade is a letdown and really doesn’t compare to the rest…
What’s the best gun for home defense? Before some smart-ass weighs in with “the gun you have,” let’s take a step back. Crime is on the rise nationwide, including home invasions, and many folks who’ve never even thought about buying a gun are considering it now. Handguns, rifles, and shotguns each have their own set…
