DAYUM!!! The man doesn't just talk the talk, he can shoot!!!!

I think out of all the gun owners in the country, the few that actually shoot enough to become proficient are going to be pretty reliable 2A supporters. The kind of people who say things like, "I'm a gun owner but I support reasonable restrictions and nobody should have a device that lets you shoot a semiautomatic as fast as a machine gun" are the ones that can't shoot for shit.

I love Kershaw knives. I have a couple dozen of them and use them daily. I don’t worry about damaging them. I just use them and they never disappoint. I have a speed safe knife that is 20 years old and still going strong. I also have a Black Colt knife I purchased 37 years ago when I was 14 that still kicks ass.

I think I will buy another tomorrow after seeing their ad.

I have the Norse Hawk, which is fun to throw at shit, but that's about it.

Most of their products are the kind of thing I want to just mess with, but don't see much use for.

If I had extra income to spend on fun sharp things though, I would probably buy a bit of their stuff.

They have AMAZING EDC folders with the spartan/ak47/recon/rajah series and their SK-5/Carbon V fixed blades are amazing. Their SRK was the standard SEAL issue before SOG

Gladius machete.

They are indestructible and versatile, yet cost effective.

Need a machete? Yup.

Need a knife? It kinda works.

Need a chop a small limb? It'll do it.

I have one of their Trail Hawks. If you spend a little time fitting the head to the handle properly, you can get a good solid friction fit, like a pickaxe (just discard the little set screw). Then you can pop the handle out of the head and it packs down nicely in a backpack. I think it is a heck of a lot more useful than a regular hatchet and while you won't want to try chopping down a tree with it, it's great for splitting kindling for a campfire and using the poll to pound tent stakes.

That was a water buffalo in Australia. Cape buffalos bigger cousin.
They aren’t as mean, but it’s an academic discussion at best. Water buffalo will attack when provoked or put in danger, Cape buffalo attack because you are there.
