I’ve never been a fan of out-the-front knives. Yes, they’re kinda cool, but they tend to be more on the “tactical” side than the knives I like for everyday carry. Most of the best have double-edge dagger blades, they’re pricier than most EDC blades and they tend to freak out the muggles when you deploy […]

Great news! Hollywood has a new gun control message campaign that can get you and/or your kids killed.

After years of interviews for the book, I have seen how owning a gun can make people more conservative, and more concerned that liberals will impose laws that leave them unprotected. I spoke to one man who was an “anti-gun liberal” for the first 35 years of his life. Then he started carrying a gun […]
