Maxpedition Excelsa Framelock Folding Knives

Details
Category: Blades
Created: Tuesday, 15 April 2014 01:10

Maxpedition has been going for more of a classy look meets hard user design lately and the Excelsa knives are a good example of that. Made of great materials and quality the function is there, but a good amount of attention has been put into the aesthetics as well to give what I would call a modern gentleman's knife look.

Fantoni HB 01 Black Tactical Folding Knife

Details
Category: Blades
Created: Sunday, 24 March 2013 02:52

I think I've been quite lucky on what I've come across for blade opportunities and this Fantoni HB-01 does not disappoint the streak. A collaboration between Fantoni of Italy and William W. Harsey a USA designer, the result is what I would describe as a very classy tactical knife. It has the durability and functionality desired in a tactical knife while keeping the design overall simple and sleek in appearance.

Zombie Tools - The Hellion

Details
Category: Blades
Created: Monday, 20 August 2012 22:25

This may seem a little random, but I came across this fun blade while working on a MSM side project (to be revealed soon). Zombie Tools is a small USA company that makes no messing around blades with the intent of "accessories for the apocalypse". Now everyone will have their opinion on "zombie" stuff being fun or a silly waste, but the zombie tools brand being viable weapons is stone cold fact. Everything they offer emanates the concept of deadly efficiency. Offering many designs for the size class desired, even rowdy big, their blade construction starts with 5160 spring steel and feature unique distressed effects on the final look. I'm a fan as I feel it adds to the personality of the blades and encourages the user to beat the shit out of it; to actually use it rather than coddling it like a baby trying to keep a clean look.

Gerber S.A.H. Knife

Details
Category: Blades
Created: Wednesday, 11 April 2012 05:07

This here stabby tool is another example of looking fairly plain yet has clever design features that make it stand out in other ways. SAH stands for Safety Auto Hook so the big show is definitely the integrated cutting hook built into the handle. I've seen designs where hooks are built into the handle, but this is certainly the first time I've seen a hook that retracts back into handle. The retracting design cuts down on bulk and accidental snagging while giving a more "basic" knife appearance. To make up for the speed of an open hook design that is always ready, the auto hook is spring loaded with button on the side.

ESEE DPx HEST Knife

Details
Category: Blades
Created: Saturday, 10 July 2010 21:43

I've been on the lookout for some fixed blade action so was fortunate to have the opportunity to check out this here DPx HEST knife. The backstory is that ESEE (formerly RAT Cutlery) teamed up with Robert Young Pelton to make this bad boy. DP is an abbreviation for Dangerous Places while HEST stands for Hostile Environment Survival Tool. Mr. Pelton is apparently no slouch on the dangerous places subject and has done a lot of high adventure action in his day. (BIO) As for what the knife can do, it has some pretty nifty features that make it an adaptable blade to many environments.
