Flat Grind Mora Knives from Baryonyx Knife Co.

By on March 31, 2016 in Knives

Everyone likes Mora knives because they are such a great value but not everyone likes maintaining their “Scandi” grind edges. Baryonyx Knife Co. is now offering Moras that have been reground with full flat grinds. The knives are still very affordable but now they have increased cutting performance and a grind with which more Americans are familiar.

I should also mention that Baryonyx Knife Co. is one of my favorite places to buy cutting tools. They inspect each and every item that they carry before selling it to ensure that everything is as it should be. They also offer a very affordable “Special Grade” service on most items which means that they will regrind the cutting edge to improves its performance. These services are especially nice for items like machetes which often come unsharpened or axes where you have to be concerned with things like grain orientation.

Check out the full flat grind Mora options at Baryonyx Knife Co. The available selection changes periodically.

Sagewood Gear MOLLE Quick Clip

Sagewood Gear originally developed their MOLLE Quick Clips for use with their handmade leather PSK (personal survival kit) pouches but it quickly became apparent that these clips would be useful for more than they thought. The MOLLE Quick Clip turned out to be quite useful for adapting a number of MOLLE compatible pouches to belt carry and it works especially well for HSGI Rifle Magazine Tacos.

Check out the MOLLE Quick Clip at Sagewood Gear and while you are there, check out their excellent leather knife sheaths.

New from TOPS Knives: C.U.T. 4.0

By on March 30, 2016 in EDC, Knives

The new TOPS CUT 4.0 looks like it might be one of the few knives that can successfully bridge the gap between a reasonable effective karambit and a practical, general-purpose knife. That is exactly what designer Joshua Swanagon was hoping to accomplish.

CUT4 (1)

Having a martial arts background, Joshua Swanagon has done some training with the karambit and is a fan of ring style knives and their prowess in combative applications. However, also being an avid outdoorsman, he has found them to be less than ideal as field utility blades. So he set out to make a knife that could combine those disciplines and decided to call it the C.U.T. 4.0 (Combat Utility Tool).

Those of you who keep an eye on TOPS Knives will notice that the sheath is a departure from their usual kydex-with-a-clip designs. This kydex sheath features two soft loops that allow the sheath to be mounted a number of ways including horizontally on the belt with the handle in toward the centerline. This carry method makes it easy to draw the knife wit either hand in a very compact space.

Even if you never use the karambit functionality of this knife, you’ll appreciate the versatile blade shape and practical size. Check out the new CUT 4.0 at TOPS Knives.
