    Appalachian Trail knives

    Went to my local Lowes last night to replace the Sodbuster Jr. I lost. I have full faith I'll find the old soddie, but murphy's law dictates I won't until I bring another one home. (theory: murphy was a knife knut.) Anyway, after looking through the entire store, I gave up and asked a...

    Sjambok carry for the modern gentleman

    Gentlemen (antiquated gentlemen need not apply, per title), I know at least one person here claims to carry a sjambok. There may be others. Still more of us have seen them carried and used. My question is, how is the sjambok carried nowadays? Slung over the back, samurai style? In the...

    Golf Clubs.

    You know, in the movies, the unprepared homeowner creeps forward in the dark to investigate that noise.. and he's got a golf club? I can't say I've ever swatted anything with one. Can anyone here attest to how they hold up to a beating? I mean, a bat can hit pretty much anywhere along its...

    Buck 55 versus 110, and the spyder drop

    I just bought a Buck 'Folding Hunter' to complete my collection (sorry steve, I've no interest in a Peanut right now :o). Anyway, I know I bought it at Wal-Mart, and I know that we all hate wal-mart because it's the worst store ever and their employees are grown in vats, but the counter guy...

    Ah, simplicity.

    Yesterday morning I woke up, drank some OJ and got on the box. When I clicked my Tactical TheHighRoad Shortcut Button, I saw it was down. How very troubling. Faced with a lack of things to do online, I decided I might try going outside for once. My best friend wanted to go shop, and there...

    Cold Steel Kudu?

    From THR I went to edcforums.com, then from there my hapless banner-ad-clicking finger led me on to edcdepot.com. (I shall be telling this with a sigh, somewhere ages and ages hence..) Anyway they've got CS kudus for $7 a pop. Anybody have experience with this knife, or ring knives (?)...

    A different twist on the relationship thread

    Well, I've seen here that we've all been getting our daily doses of dr. phil.. so I've another one to throw out there. My best friend just moved into a house. He's getting married in may, and I like her a lot. I taught him to shoot, and I feel safe around him and guns. He doesn't own any...

    Mace and dogs

    I was 'fighting' with my mighty 8 lb pup today, and the thought came to me that chemical sprays are often touted as a nonlethal solution versus dogs for postmen, bicyclists, etc. So I was wondering if anyone's ever had to use a chemical spray on a dog, or owned a dog that's been sprayed, as...

    Cultivating your inner viking

    I forget who called it cultivating your inner viking, I think it was in a sig line from Don Rearic's forum.. but they say memory's the first to go :rolleyes: Halloween night, I'm in chem lab, and these two girls who have not been getting along all semester nearly come to blows. One minute...

    Breaking knives

    Somebody else asked what the ultimate knife is. Well, we all know it's the Lamb's Foot Knife. But before I carried that ultimate pocket-katana, I carried any one of a bunch of knives I'd bought simply because I liked the look of them, or some features. Thing is, I've only ever broken one...

    Creative Costume Carry!

    I'll admit, this year I was mister clean for halloween. I'm already bald, and $6 for a pair of clip-on earrings was just about right for poor ol' college student me. Anyway, since the man himself wears tight white t-shirts, I went with a j-frame in an uncle mike's ankle holster. Tonight...

    Straps!

    A lot of knives (and some ubertactical holsters) come with a bunch of straps 'n stuff so you can fit a gun or a knife pretty much anywhere on your extremities. Well I bought myself a cheap diver's knife (really no more rust-resistant than any other, but it was cheap and built with plastic...

    On carry in and draw from pockets

    I have a pair of Desantis Nemeses (I resist the temptation to write 'nemesises') that I've been using in the summer months. Now that it's getting cooler I still find them handy for when I'm sitting down for long periods - e.g. in class. For the record, one's for a J-Frame and the other is...

    A magazine plug (or: I'm going to solve this problem backwards)

    Hi shotgun forum, I never post here, because i never have shotgun problems and I've already picked the best sporting and HD scatterguns possible :rolleyes: My brother calls me up this afternoon, wants to go pheasant hunting. I have a Rem 870 express magnum (2.75 or 3 inch shells) that I just...

    A flashlight for work

    Hullo all. So I'm very excited to have landed my first hospital job (currently I am a nursing student but they took me on as a Nurse Aide) and they don't want guns or knives on the property or in our cars or anything of the sort. I'll probably still keep my gun in my car, as it is my...

    Pocket Holsters - DeSantis versus Uncle Mike's

    I want a pocket holster. I carry a P11 or a J-Frame, depending. Is there a great advantage to a DeSantis Nemesis versus an Uncle Mike's? (this post is about 7/8ths shorter than my normal post, it feels strange to write one so concise.) TIA.

    I just got asked one I've never heard before.

    Went to sbux with my buddy John tonight. We talk a lot about lots of things. About a year ago I got him into shooting, he's just about ready to make his first purchase, etc etc. So we got to talking about VA Tech. Of course, if nobody's there on sunday then we're all monday morning...
