Lockblades are a staple of the knife world. It is a beautiful functionality that allows you to collapse a knife and put it into your pocket and not worry about stabbing yourself in the leg. Many knives that can be collapsed are dangerous because they can be closed just as easily as they can be opened. If you have ever had one of these multi function Swiss Army knives that have scissors, a saw, and a table saw all in one shiny red package, you probably have cut your knuckle once or twice. It’s a terrible design that has been tollerated simply due to the Swiss Army being conflict free for the last 500 years.

If you look at good knives, like a Benchmade Rift, or a Spyderco you’ll see that there are multiple solutions to the whole cutting your own knuckle issue. Spyderco uses, in almost all instances, what I call a “traditional lock.” You have seen this approach on lockblades all over the world. The Benchmade Rift uses a more unique approach. Instead of using a block of steel to keep the blade in line it uses a pin. It is more efficient though a bit unsettling at first. Either way, watch out for the unlocking blades or you’ll be looking for a Swiss Army emergency kit in no time.

Hey everybody, let’s talk about life. If you are reading this, chances are that you are alive. You probably like being alive. People go to work and build relationships because they want to improve their life. Here’s where things get dicey. Believe it or not, there are many people out there who don’t want other people to be alive. They actually like to take away other people’s lives. They are called murderers. Their ranks include Ted Bundy, Jeffery Dahmer, and Orenthal James Simpson.

Due to the existence of such individuals in our society, it may become necessary, if you want to preserve your own life, to possess some sort of object with which to damage another’s person in order to prevent them from damaging ours. Knives are one such method. Our kitchen at home has several very sharp knives of all different shapes and sizes that could be used to damage an intruder if they were to break into our home. In addition to knives in our home, we also have a large antique canonball which could be used as a weapon. In additon we also have hammers, a large chain, and a bat that could be used as a weapon. Bottom line? If you’re dealing with a murderer, you don’t want to be the only one without a weapon.

Fishing is one of those things that you can really sink some serious cash into. From a good fishing pole, to fly tying supplies and fancy wave fishing lures, if you’ve got the cash then the fishing industry has got companies willing to help you spend it. There’s nothing wrong with that though. It’s called capitalism… and it’s a good thing. I personally never really got into fishing. My dad never was a fisherman and therefore nobody ever really taught me how to fish. I went a couple times as a kid with others and I sucked at it cause I had no idea what I was doing and so I never really developed much of an interest in it myself. Maybe if I ever have a son, I’ll go out and buy myself a nice fishing rod and pick up a book from the library and teach myself how to fish so that I can teach my son how to fish. Fishing is a good thing to do with sons because it gets you out of cell and wifi range, hopefully, and actually allows you to have some time to have a good chat with your kid and make sure that they aren’t getting too screwed up, as teenagers have a tendency to become.
