My new favorite little big knife, Spyderco Techn

Image
It takes me a long time to buy anything. Once I decide I'm interested in something, I spend the next few weeks doing research, trying to make sure I'm going to make the right decision. I went through the same process when I decided I wanted a new pocket knife. I ultimately decided I was going to go with the Spyderco Techno, and when it first arrived, I thought I'd made a mistake.   The Techno is a design from Marcin Slysz, a Polish knifemaker. It has a blade made from CTS-XHP, and the handle scales are made from titanium. It is a framelock design, which means part of the scale on the right side acts as the locking mechanism. It's a very secure design, and this particular knife has no blade play in any direction. It's a real slicing machine now, which is surprising for its thickness. I have knives with blades half as thick that don't perform as well as this one. The other surprise with this knife, is just how comfortable

Spyderco Delica 4 FFG: long term review

Image
In the 1990s Spyderco was requested by a branch of a U.S. law enforcement agency to make a knife for their undercover agents. They needed to have a last ditch weapon just in case they found themselves in a situation that prevented them from carrying a handgun. The knife should allow an officer with no formal knife training to escape life-threatening situation. The Civilian is the result of that design challenge. The current production model now has a G-10 handle but the business end of the weapon is unchanged; a fearsome 4.125" (105 mm) fully serrated, hollow ground S-curved VG-10 blade with a 3.75" (95 mm) cutting edge. Blade thickness is .125" (3 mm) at the base near the handle and the overall length when opened is 9.188" (233 mm). You’re not reading this review for just the specs right? Let's go on to what this knife is meant for. The Civilian is the only production folder that I know of that is intended for cutting human flesh and not

Gerber Knives and the Art of Survival

Image
Survival equipment is a growing market in the last few years. Whether you just love trekking in the wilds or preparing for other activities, outdoor gear will be at the top of every wish list. Chances are, Gerber knives will appear in many of these wish lists.   From cutlery to the outdoors Gerber knives, one of the biggest and most well-known knife companies around, had humble beginnings. In the holiday season of 1910, founder Joseph Gerber mailed twenty-four sets of kitchen knives to clients of their family's advertising firm. The handmade knives caught the attention of Abercrombie & Fitch, who placed a request for more of the knives for their 1939 catalog. That same year, Gerber founded the company that would bear his name. By the 1960s, Gerber was one of the most trusted and collected name in knives. Gerber knives have seen use in wartime and peacetime, as hunting tools and survival gear. One old Gerber poster best describes the knifemaker's rep

Bear Grylls Knife - A Cut Above The Competition

Image
The Bear Grylls Ultimate Pro is the newest version of the Bear Grylls Gerber knife collection. The knife is a complete redesign from the original. They basically went back to the drawing boards to make a seriously nice knife. Despite the original Bear Grylls knife being the best selling knife in the world, it had its fair share of critics who bashed the blade for its sub-par steel, blade serrations, and that it was not a true full tang blade. Gerber and Bear took that criticism as fuel for the fire. The new Bear Grylls Ultimate Pro has awesome steel, using 9cr19Mov which is a Chinese version of 440C. This steel is strong, non corrosive and will hone and retain a razor sharp edge. Very high quality. The next item that they addressed was the tang. The PRO has a fully exposed tang down to the pummel and has slab handles. The knife blade actually reminds me of of the SOG Seal Team Elite.. Lastly the improved on the lanyard whistle as they made it loader and easier to use.
