With the advent of forums why would you pay money for yesterdays info? Heck I bought one issue of blade to see if it was any good. I bought it in June and they were talking about SHOT show.... everything they show can be seen on forums for free in real time.

The izula folder will not be made, instead they are going to be doing an ESEE3 folder, they are meeting with a taiwanese manufacturer at SHOT to work out the details. The fixed blades are very solid and some of my favorite. Check out the ESEE4 if you want something shorter, the ESEE6 if you want som...

I'm not even a fan of S30v but I'm feeling so bad for this random steel I'm tempted to buy a Native 5. Did you watch Ankerson's video? Did you see any ninja editing? He cut everything on God's green earth and it would still cut paper. Maybe CT can't put an edge on a knife? I don't know. i dont know...

That's an interesting video, now it just seems funny that they would go so far out of their way to do all this. It probably has to do with making 3 times the product out of the same amount of material. not really. composite blades cost about what they should. really its only an extra step or two to...

New steel excites me. the only knife that i know of that uses either is the kershaw tilt. you can see various edge reten...
