The KaBar mark 1 and the CRKT Kaiyuh. I intend on the Mark 1 becoming my new EDC fixed blade, as it seems a proper length and weight for most anything I normally run across from day to day. The Kaiyuh, just looks really sweet and is made from Krupp's 1.4116 stainless which I have no experience...

Sorry all you leatherman/Swiss army/gerber multitool survivalists cause im sure I will get heat from this, but WTF? How is it there are so many of you I see posting on the " Only One Knife To Survive " threads that you actually think you can live with only a multitool? I own a few of them, and...

Hi, I spent a few hours on a small caribbean island a few days ago so I brought along my Kabar shorty with kydex sheath as we were all alone there. Well, it must have gotten wet when I embarked the dinghy and I did not realize it. It rusted pretty fast but I used oil and elbow grease and its...
