This was a gift to me from an old Jedi friend of mine from a long time ago in a place far far away. It’s a small single bladed lightsaber with a small synthetic yellow crystal as it’s beam producing core. This gives the 3″ lightsaber a 3″ blade. The balance is weighted heavily to the hilt where the power pack makes up the majority of the mass. Continue reading Pocket Sized Yellow, Single Blade Lightsaber

Spyderco Manix 2 by Maverick Customs
This knife is one my Specials… It was gift to me by a friend, customized by Maverick Customs – who has become a friend. So I’m a little biased about how awesome this knife is. It started life as a normal, Spyderco Manix 2. Which is in and of it’s self – pretty damn awesome.

Ontario RAT 1: Updated
I’ve heard a lot of guys talking about how solid and good the Ontario RAT 1 and RAT 2 knives are. They get the general nod of approval for bringing a good working liner locking folder to the table at a good value. Off the Cuff, I want to agree. Continue reading Ontario RAT 1: Updated
Kershaw Emerson Launch 5
This is my second favorite folder of all time. (I’ve not given my #1 yet) And for me, this is kind of an odd duck in my collection. It’s an Auto. It’s one of the Kershaw Emerson Collaborations, as well as being part of Kershaw’s Launch Series. This is #5 out of a total of 7 knives in the series. And I have no desire to collect all of them… maybe one or two more though… they are quite good. Continue reading Kershaw Emerson Launch 5
Buck 722 Spitfire: Thumbs Up on this one.
Here’s a folding knife that I really like, from a company that I really like. The 722 Spitfire from Buck. To me, Buck is much like what Ruger was to me… a Company that I just ignored and for the most part, just didn’t care for all that much, with only a few individual exceptions on specific products. But now, Ruger is smashing Home Runs with most every swing and I just love watching them get better and better. Buck is the same way. I am a fan of the 110 series, as I’ve said before… and a fan of their Vantage knives… And now they have this. The Spitfire. Que up the Knife Snobbery… they are going to hate this one… But I like it.
The Spitfire comes with some color options, but I like the all natural clear anodized look on this one. It’s a Lock Back, using Buck’s classic lock mechanism that we’re all familiar with. An oddly shaped thumb hole, that looks odd, but works well enough for it’s purpose. Continue reading Buck 722 Spitfire: Thumbs Up on this one.
Opinel N.08
Opinel is an old knife making company based in Savoie France. And they have been making these knives for a very very long time. It all started with a tool maker’s apprentice that came up with a simple and clever locking mechanism that they call the “Virobloc” which is a type of “Twist Lock” or as I remember it being called many years ago, a “Barrel Lock”. Continue reading Opinel N.08
Mora Companion
There’s not a lot to say about the Morakniv family. This one is the Companion. It’s an exceptionally simple knife with a well-shaped handle with a nice surface that lends to a good grip and feel in the hand. The blade looks like something found on a Steakhouse table. I’ve never owned a Mora before and considered them a slight step up from Dollar General Cutlery. Continue reading Mora Companion
Buck 110 Ecolite
This is one of my very favorite knives in the whole wide world. The Buck 110 is all of America, made into a folding knife. It’s NASCAR, Apple Pie, Pump Action Shotguns, and ZZ TOP all rolled in together. Continue reading Buck 110 Ecolite
Eafengrow EF227 Folding Knife
Any time I’ve been looking at any knife on Amazon.com, Eafengrow knives are always popping up as recommended items. So tried to look into them and couldn’t find anything via a Google Search. Other than links back to Amazon.

Returning to the Gun Industry.
There is a new gun company that is gearing up, that I am getting involved with. I can not say anything about it as of yet, but hardcore, dedicated enthusiasts and aficionados will really pick up what we are putting down. I am very excited.
Now, this doesn’t change my involvement in the Motorcycle Industry with certain European brands… But it keeps my whistle wet when it comes to weapons.
Goal is to be at SHOT 2019. And as of this point, we are on track.
We’re going to eventually be looking at maybe sharing a Booth at SHOT if someone is willing to cooperate with us.
