Working toward any goal can be a difficult process, but if you're not sure where to start or what to do to make your goal happen, accomplishing that goal becomes infinitely harder. For those of us who wouldn't call ourselves experts within the realm of survival, but who really are serious about wanting to grow our skills to be better overall survivalists, figuring out which steps to take to ...
Ontario RAT-1 Jeff Randall Folding EDC Knife Review
The Ontario RAT-1 is probably the most famous "budget" folder that consistently gets recommended on the forums. I've always shied away from purchasing it in the past due to my (somewhat extreme) disdain for its aesthetics, but in January this year, I bit the bullet, deciding I needed to see for myself what all the fuss over this knife was about.
