Custom Hand Forged Tomahawks by Walk by Faith 777

By Matt on July 20, 2016 in Survival

What if you could customize every aspect of a forged tomahawk as easily as ordering off a menu at a restaurant? That is exactly what Walk by Faith 777 offers. The northern Michigan based forge offers true custom, hand-made tomahawks at a reasonable price.

The sheer number of options available on these ‘hawks is amazing. You can choose between 17 different bit (blade) shapes with multiple sizes for most shapes. There are 9 different poll options including a variety of spikes and hammer polls. The metal can be finished with your choice of two finishes. Choose between one of 6 different haft options. If you want an end cap for the haft, there are 5 options including tapered options. There are options for the sheath’s color, snap, welt, opening side, and you can even add a monogram!

The number of options may sound overwhelming but these are all presented in a format that actually makes it very easy to order the exact custom tomahawk you desire. You simply view the provided pictures of each option and choose what you want from drop down menus. If there is an extra cost associated with the option, that is shown in the drop down menu.

Stout Gear Knives Redesigns the Oxe

By Matt on July 19, 2016 in Knives

Stout Gear Knives just introduced the Oxe V2. The original Oxe sported a slightly recurve blade and filled the large camp knife niche in their line. The new Oxe V2 still works as a large camp knife but it’s chopping credentials have been beefed up with a more radical recurve blade and new flatter grind geometry.

The new blade is not only more radically recurved at the cutting edge but it also has a recurved spine. The new shape looks great and puts the point more forward in the chopping stroke almost like a kukri. The blade is ground from 1/4″ thick S35VN steel, 10.5″ long, and is nearly 2″ tall from edge to spine so it confirms to most chopping competition regulations. Like nearly all Stout Gear Knives, the Oxe 2.0 has a large contoured handle with an integral guard.

The sheaths that Stout Gear includes with their knives are excellent. They use a unique construction method that features a welt like you find in a leather sheath. The outer parts of the sheath are molded kydex and the welt is fitted HDPE.

ACE Rail Sling Mount with QD

By Matt on July 19, 2016 in Guns

I have been using the original ACE Rail Sling Mounts (SMR) for years. I have always appreciated the simplicity of the design which is a simple sling loop, milled from a single block of aluminum, and clamped to the rail with a single bolt. Now ACE is offering a new version of the Rail Sling Mount with a QD sling swivel socket integrated into the design. This simple change adds a considerable amount of versatility and redundancy that will be welcomed by anyone who has had a QD swivel fail at a bad time.

These are not currently available at the ACE website. The are available from J&T Distributing.

By Matt on July 18, 2016 in Guns

Armageddon Tactical and Stealth Engineering Group have released some images of their their submission to the military’s Suppressed Upper Receiver Group or SURG program. The submission makes use of Stealth Engineering Group’s suppressor technology and Armageddon Tactical’s GMS-15 Charging Handle in a special color.

I’ve not put hands on any Stealth Engineering Group products but I have spent considerable time with a GMS-15 Charging Handle and found that it does go a long way toward preventing suppressor related blowback.

By Matt on July 18, 2016 in Tactics and Training

RE Factor Tactical’s line of targets has impressed not only with how versatile they are on their own but with how they have continued to support them by developing drills and courses of fire to be used with them. Their latest addition, the Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck, is a deck of cards with 52 drills (one on each card) to be used with the IQ Target.

The card deck format allows you to carry them in your range bag and easily randomize the drills. Just grab a roll of IQ Targets, your Dead Man’s Hand Shooting Deck, and hit the range.
