Chopping Tools

Being caught out in the mountains with four inches of snow on the ground in eight degree (Fahrenheit) weather unable to chop wood for a fire is NOT a good thing. . . . → Read More: Chopping Tools

Buck Knives PakLite FieldMaster Kit Review

For all you hunters looking forward to the fall hunting season, I received and decided to review this product from Buck Knives: the PakLite FieldMaster. Now I’ll admit up front that I haven’t been an active hunter for quite some time now, but it’s an activity I look forward to getting back into – and I certainly have the firearms for it. Most people realize, though, that a gun isn’t all you need: you need proper clothing, knowledge, skill – and the necessary tools to dress your “prize” out after a successful hunt. The PakLite FieldMaster is a handy, three-in-one kit that helps with that. Continue reading Buck Knives PakLite FieldMaster Kit Review

ATVs versus RUVs: Applications & Uses

I was recently invited to join a “writers’ conference” to explore the strengths and uses of ATVs and UTVs in the Anthrocite Outdoor Recreation Area in Shamokin Dam, Pennsylvania. Not only was it a gorgeous setting but I had a blast and learned a lot too. Hosted by Kawasaki, the event was educational, well planned, well managed and great fun. My thanks to Josh Sykes of Blue August for having invited me and to all the other attendees who didn’t make fun of my ignorance.

Inevitably I built up my own armorer’s kit that contained the items I most often needed . . . → Read More: Sentry Solution Kits

Revision Eyewear Photochromic Hellfly

It’s not uncommon today to see law enforcement professionals from the average patrol officer to the most highly skilled SWAT cop wearing eye protection. Said eye protection can take the form of the cheapest bulkiest (and ugliest) “goggles” you can find in any convenience store. Luckily for us, they can also take the form . . . → Read More: Revision Eyewear Photochromic Hellfly

BlackOak Fanny Pack

One of my favorite things to do is go hiking. Depending on the length of the hike, the terrain being traveled, and what activities may be enjoyed along the way, varying levels of gear or kit need to be carried. Sure, you can carry a backpack and just put in what you need, but . . . → Read More: BlackOak Fanny Pack

A Contemporary Sporty Belt Rig

When my son came home to visit at Easter he brought a pair of matching Navy Arms black powder .44 revolvers with him. He also brought a “western” belt that went with the revolvers that had cartridge loops (which made no sense to me for a black powder gun) and a knife sheath. It . . . → Read More: A Contemporary Sporty Belt Rig
