Brown Everyday Carry: Tops Knives, Streamlight, Boker Plus, and Handmade Leather
The theme for my everyday carry this week is the color Brown! I couldn't stick with the theme completely as I don't have a brown flashlight or pen with me. As some of you might know I'm an Australian guy who has been here in Istanbul, Turkey for the year. So I don't have much EDC gear with me. I believe the knife laws are similar here to those in Australia (very … [Read more...] about Brown Everyday Carry: Tops Knives, Streamlight, Boker Plus, and Handmade Leather
Spyderco Paramilitary 2 Pocket Knife Review PM2
The Spyderco Para Military 2 is an almost perfect pocket knife in my humble opinion but I'll try to be as objective as I can with this review as I know not everyone loves the folder as much as me. It's as close to being universally loved among the cutlery community as almost any other folding knife and there's plenty of good reasons for this. At Spyderco they use the C.Q.I. … [Read more...] about Spyderco Paramilitary 2 Pocket Knife Review PM2

Everyday Carry for the Week: Spyderco, Streamlight & Fisher Space Pen
This week's Everyday carry theme is the color Orange! I've really had a thing for all things orange over the past six months or so. I'm thinking of it as my Vitamin C period. I like it more as an accent color as it's such a strong color, so I wouldn't buy an all orange hoodie or an orange car but I would buy them with orange accents. Starting from the top, it's my Samsung … [Read more...] about Everyday Carry for the Week: Spyderco, Streamlight & Fisher Space Pen
EDC Monday: Cold Steel, MecArmy, ZT & Spyderco
Everyday carry equipment for the start of the week is all about brutality as we need to attack this week. Which means you'll need a belt to hold these suckers up if you're carrying them in your pockets! Starting with the ridiculously large (awesome) Cold Steel XL Voyager with a clip point blade. If you don't like the Extra Large range of Cold Steel pocket knives then you … [Read more...] about EDC Monday: Cold Steel, MecArmy, ZT & Spyderco
RUIKE P801-SF Flipper Folding Knife Review
The Ruike P801-SF is one of a few budget knives by Chinese makers that made long established American knife companies think about what they were doing. In this price range knife lovers were used to buying cheap plastic folders with poor quality control, mystery steels, and a knife-lifespan of about a week if you were careful. RUIKE upped the game with good design, decent steel … [Read more...] about RUIKE P801-SF Flipper Folding Knife Review
Zero Tolerance 0393 Hinderer Flipper Folding Knife Review
The Zero Tolerance 0393 folder is a knife that I had been lusting after for some time. I loved the previous Hinderer designed ZT production model releases and this little beauty looked like an improvement on them so I snapped this one up as soon as I could. After playing with it for a few weeks I've decided this one is also a keeper. The ZT0393 is a full production model … [Read more...] about Zero Tolerance 0393 Hinderer Flipper Folding Knife Review
