Need a blade that’ll take a licking and keep on ticking? I feel like every time I saw my grandpa, he had his old Buck 110 in his overall pocket. Everyone knows what I am talking about: the brass frame, the patinaed wood scales, brass pins, and the clip point blade. Buck is arguably one…
In my never-ending quest for the perfect EDC knife, I recently requested a Miguron Knives Velona drop-point blade. Regular readers know that I’m kind of tough to please, and that I consider it a service to you to point out the cons as well as the pros of an everyday carry knife up for my…
One of the best things about testing outdoor gear is that I often get sneak peeks at EDC knives before they’re released to the public. The not-yet-released Tellus FLK knife from SOG Knives is one such. It caught my eye because of the bright and weird combination of colors available, but it held my gaze…
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.

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…

See how the Pro-Tech Godfather Auto Knife stacks up against our other top picks in the best automatic knife guide. Boring knives are something of a tradition in my family … this thing of ours … but on this, the day of my daughter’s wedding, I have vowed that I will not allow a person…
The 5.11 Tactical powerhouse is hell-bent on making the best apparel possible for shooters and gun enthusiasts. Many of us are familiar with its extensive lines of pants, shirts, and boots, but we often skip past the many accessories that this California-based company brings to the table. Among other things, 5.11 makes some incredibly tough…
This EDC knife knows it may be your last line of defense. Sure, folders and out-the-front knives have grown in leaps and bounds over the years, with their structural integrity becoming increasingly impressive. However, as good as they have become, they will never eclipse the reliable assurance of a fixed blade. With roots and inspiration…
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.
