After so many years of blogging (admittedly, not so much recently), its interesting to sit back and muse about what MTJS represents and how the girl and I have evolved along the way, both as people and as content creators. MTJS was created as a way of justifying my … [Read more...]

Re-reading my past scribbles is always interesting to me, not because I am obsessed with my own written word, but rather because bloggers, by virtue of being given a platform to be highly opinionated, tend to ignore uncomfortable realities when it's much easier to outright … [Read more...]

Blogger burnout is a real thing. I have been scribbling reviews and sharing my thoughts with you all for quite a few years now. It seems it all started off as a way for me to talk about my love for Spydercos and evolved into a great community over the years, and for that, I … [Read more...]

Long time no scribbles my friends. I have been AWOL as of late, but rest assured - we had a good reason! As some of you may have guessed, the girl and I have once again uprooted and made our home in a new country. Some of you may remember that in May 2016 we moved from … [Read more...]

Back again with a Cyber Monday post, and just as I'd hoped, Amazon's deals are a lot better for knife aficionados - and hell even for outdoor gear junkies & survivalists - than Black Friday's sales were. Concentrating on Amazon & Blade HQ this time, because … [Read more...]

Welcome to our annual Black Friday Knife & Gear Deal Round up! This year (unlike last year) we have some pretty worthwhile Amazon deals you might want to jump on, though unlike last year, these are very, very few and far between, meaning we simply don't have much to … [Read more...]

So we weren't planning on publishing today, but we stumbled on a sale section of Blade HQ website we thought was too good to pass up sharing. Thomas so desperately wishes we lived in the States and could take advantage of these crazy prices, but since we don't, the best we … [Read more...]
