- Well Used and Abused CRKT M60 SOTFB
When I say that this knife was field tested – I mean FIELD TESTED! I have never owned a knife that I have used and abused as much as this one. I carried it everyday over a 3 ½ year period wile I was working in Iraq and on dozens of camping and hunting trips in Southeast Asian Jungles. To this day it is still my “go to” knife for every occasion I need to carry a knife (except dinnertime).
The first thing you notice when you pick up the hefty CRKT M60 SOTFB is it feels like a solid chunk of steel in your hands. This knife is pretty much just the blade and a couple of handle panels and that’s where its toughness comes from – simplicity. The blade is full tang, the entire shape of the blade and handle is a single hunk of steel.

- BLACKHAWK! S.T.R.I.K.E. Utility Speed Clip Nalgene Bottle Poc
I have been a big fan of Nalgene Bottles for years, they have a fat wide mouth, don’t leave your water with a plastic taste and are easy to clean even after you have left them unwashed for long periods of time.
So I was thrilled when I found out that BLACKHAWK! made a PALS Pouch for 32 oz Nalgene Bottles. Now I know that some people have negative things to say about BLACKHAWK! Gear but in my opinion BH gear is fine, a bit overpriced but its still good gear.
I do think they could chill out with using CAPITAL LETTERS and EXCLAMATION MARKS!!!!! on their name and products and stop renaming things that already exist, like calling PALS webbing S.T.R.I.K.E – they should also stop trying to beat imdb.com for the world’s slowest website award.

The Warlord V-4 New Version, the Haji DVD is for size comparison and because Tropic Thunder is the best movie ever made
I picked up an HSGI Warlord V-4 New Version a few years ago to try out carrying my gear on a chest harness after years of connecting all of my gear to an armor carrier. I had never actually used a Chest Harness in the field before.
But because of my new job I was only armed with a rifle outside of the wire and I didn’t want to walk around with a bunch of unused pouches on my kit.
So I thought the best thing to do was have a clean armor carrier to wear when I was on-base and a chest harness with my rifle mag pouches and other “more than 100 feet form the PX” gear on it. And I wanted the option of being able to throw on a full kit and run within 10 seconds if I had to.
After asking around and checking out the different gear venders online I decided on the Warlord V-4 New Version for a few reasons. HSGI Gear has a great rep from several of my buddies in the field and it had several features that other Chest Harnesses don’t have, like a built in Admin Pouch and huge interior pouches – basically allot of extra storage space for miscellaneous stuff.

- BIG!
My first thought after buying the Cold Steel AK-47 is “this is a big folder”. It has an overall length of 9 ¼ inches with a 3 ½ long 4mm thick AUS A8 Stainless Steel blade.
My AK-47 pictured above came with the G-10 handle and a black Teflon coated blade, Cold Steel has another model that comes with an aluminum handle with a bead blast finish for the blade.
