This article contains the following sections:
Earlier this month, we commemorated the devastating events which occurred in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, in 1945 — the detonation of nuclear bombs on August 6 and 9 that instantly or eventually killed hundreds of thousands of civilians and decimated two cities. Most people annually mourn the senseless loss of life, perhaps also giving a thought to the threat nuclear weapons continue to pose.
With the recent Korean crisis and hostilities in Syria that recall its former nuclear aspirations, the movement for the abolition of the production, testing, and use of nuclear weapons is justifiably gaining momentum.
Humanitarian Impact of Nuclear Weapons
Although there have been threats from the Korean peninsula before, none have ever been taken so seriously as the crisis launched when the North conducted its third nuclear weapons test in February. Even Fidel Castro said that “this is one of the gravest risks of nuclear war” since the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. 1
Since comprehensive nuclear testing, including atmospheric, underwater, and underground testing, has been banned since 1996, 2 full-scale testing has mostly come to a stop, though some countries appear still to experiment secretly. North Korea has been detonating nuclear weapons underground openly since 2006, 3 even though it had declared in 2005 that it was “committed to abandoning all nuclear weapons and existing nuclear programs.” 4 Its second test was conducted in 2009.
At the time, I was living in South Korea and working as an English teacher. Even though seismic activity from the blast had caused the evacuation of some Chinese schools along the North Korean border more than 200 kilometres away from the test site, 3 reports from home seemed disproportionate, the threat not as serious as media made it out to be.
That’s partly because the testing at the time was meant to establish North Korea as a nuclear power during the lifetime of the late Kim Jong-il, 3 and expats treated the issue with stoic disillusionment.
Things must have been different for expats this time around, four years later when tension between the North and the South escalated once again. The phone line connecting Seoul to Pyongyang was cut off, North Korea declared a state of war against the South, multiple countries were warned to evacuate their North Korean embassies (though many refused), and North Korea advised foreign workers and tourists to leave the South since the two countries were supposedly on the brink of nuclear war. 1 On second thought, things must have been much the same.
Faced with increasingly harsh condemnation from the international community and severe economic sanctions, North Korea has been keen to assert a right to pre-emptive nuclear strikes, 5 moving away from its 2009 position of enhancing self-defensive nuclear deterrent. 3 Not for the first time, 6 it withdrew from the Korean Armistice Agreement, 1 interpreting the critical reaction to its nuclear testing as hostility. In particular, North Korea views the presence of the US military on South Korean soil as a threat, and the joint military exercises practiced by the two allies as an act of aggression. 6
And according to Michel Chossudovsky, director of the Centre for Research on Globalization in Montreal, the US has indeed displayed antagonistic behaviour and policies towards North Korea in the past, 7 deploying nearly 950 nuclear warheads to the South as pre-emptive deterrents from 1958 to 1991. In fact, his comparison of the two nations concludes that the US is the bigger threat to global security, with more warheads and more of the materials, experience, and technology with which to make them.
Both sides have extended invitations to talk out the issues, and North Korea has even suggested replacing the armistice with a peace treaty, but the US says that’s only possible if North Korea “takes irreversible steps toward denuclearisation.” 6 That’s unlikely to happen while the US maintains its nuclear program.
Discussions were slow in moving forward. 1 The US set meeting pre-conditions, to which North Korea replied it would not give up its nuclear program unless the US did the same. 8 These might have been perfect conditions in which to negotiate a binding disarmament treaty, but instead, the North’s tests and threats have bent the US on improving its own weapons. 7 Only in the past few weeks have talks made any progress. 1
However, questions concerning global security remain. For instance, is there any truth to the rumour that Iran paid to have scientists watch the last North Korean nuclear test? 9 Or that North Korea is possibly planning more tests this year? 10 Has North Korea managed to produce a nuclear bomb small enough to fit on a long-range missile? It appears so. 11
One thing is certain. The National Defense Commission of North Korea has said, “We do not hide that we will launch a series of satellites and long-range rockets and carry out nuclear tests in the next higher level new phase of the struggle against the US, the sworn enemy of the [North] Korean people.” 1
But it’s estimated North Korea only possesses 4-8 nuclear weapons, 4 while the US has 7,700 (Belgium, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, and Turkey host American warheads). Russia has the most with 8,500. The UK, France, and China have 200-300 each, India and Pakistan probably have more than 100, and Israel has just under 100 nuclear weapons. 12
The existence of these known 17,000-plus nuclear weapons threatens life, civilization, and the environment worldwide, 12 as do secretly-developed nuclear programs. 2 Nations of concern for immediate proliferation include Iran and Syria, not to mention North Korea. 4 Iran has pursued secret nuclear activities, though it has no known weapons or sufficient materials to build them. Still, its ability to create materials is being monitored. 4
Syria is also suspected of pursuing secret nuclear activities. 4 Following a 2007 Israeli airstrike on the supposed site of a nuclear reactor, Syria failed to adequately clarify the nature of the facility and its potentially nuclear-related procurement activity. In 2011, the country was therefore found in non-compliance with its obligations to the 1968 Non-Proliferation Treaty. 13 Now, despite the chemical weapons ban of 1993, 14 Syria refuses to abandon its chemical weapons program until Israel abandons its nuclear program. 13 And in light of recent allegations of chemical weapons use in Syria, comprehensive disarmament is drastically needed, regardless of who the detonating faction was.
Yet, alarmingly, the US and Russia maintain approximately 2,000 nuclear weapons on high-alert status, 12 and most are more powerful than those dropped on Japan. Just one nuclear warhead detonated over a large city could kill millions between the initial impact and the spread of genetically-damaging radioactive fallout. 15
Unfortunately, instead of negotiating for nuclear disarmament, nations are heavily investing in modernising their nuclear forces, 14 with the apparent intention of retaining them for decades to come. However, nuclear-armed nations are more vulnerable to pre-emptive strikes. 16 Nuclear weapons don’t keep the peace; they breed fear and mistrust. So long as any country has them, others will want them. 16
Even though over 40,000 nuclear weapons have been dismantled since the Cold War ended, 16 there’s no guarantee the remaining will never be used again. It’s almost certain they will be, whether intentionally or accidentally. In fact, there have been dozens of instances of near-use as a result of miscalculation or accident. 16
Effects of detonation
So what would happen if one or more nuclear weapons did go off?
First, the blast creates a huge and incredibly fast shockwave, causing death and injuries, and buildings to collapse. Second, heat so intense from thermal radiation vaporises nearly everything around ground zero, severe burns are sustained, and fires become firestorms. Finally, high doses of radiation kill cells, damage organs, and cause rapid death, while low doses damage cells and cause cancer, genetic damage, and mutations. Exposure to radiation increases the risks of passing on hereditary effects, while the food chain is also affected. 17
The technology has only seen battle twice, 68 years ago in Japan, ostensibly to end World War II. In Hiroshima, 80,000 people died immediately, while half that number died in Nagasaki. In both cities, tens of thousands of others eventually died from radiation poisoning, many others were injured, and cancer rates increased. 70 percent of Hiroshima’s buildings were burned to the ground — 42 out of 45 hospitals were destroyed or rendered non-functional. 6.7 kilometres 2 of Nagasaki was levelled, temperatures reached 4,000 degrees Celsius, and radioactive rain poured down. Pregnant women exposed to the bombings experienced higher rates of miscarriage and infant death. Children who were in the womb at the time of the explosions were more likely to have intellectual and physical disabilities and impaired growth development. Some people who entered the cities to help after the bombings also became ill or died. 18
The tragedy of this humanitarian offence is well-known, but the potential for nuclear disaster is much larger. Nowadays, with densely populated cities, a Hiroshima-sized bomb dropped over a city like Mumbai would cause nearly 900,000 deaths within weeks, 19 the death toll rising over time. Effective humanitarian aid would be impossible, with public infrastructure destroyed, many health professionals dead or injured, and those coming in from the outside at risk from radioactive fallout. 20
The use of tens or hundreds of nuclear weapons would disrupt global climate, 15 causing sustained agricultural shortfalls that would lead to panic and hoarding, then widespread famine. There would be infectious disease epidemics and conflicts over resources. 21 More than a billion people would be at risk. 15
If 500 bombs were launched over major US and Russian cities, 100 million people would die within 30 minutes. Most Americans and Russians would die in the subsequent months. 19
A war fought using only 5 percent of the global nuclear stockpile would render the planet uninhabitable. 21
If the entire global arsenal detonated, the result would be an average surface cooling of minus seven or eight degrees Celsius, compared to minus five degrees Celsius average surface cooling temperatures during the last ice age. 21
Production and Testing
Notwithstanding the potential for catastrophic nuclear weapons use, the production and testing of nuclear weapons have their own severe consequences. And considering that nuclear testing has thus far equalled the force of 29,000 Hiroshima bombs, 2 it’s easy to understand why all nuclear weapons must be banned and dismantled.
Although most nuclear testing came to an end after the 1996 ban, International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War predicts that about 2.4 million people will eventually die from cancers due to nuclear testing. 2 Much of the Earth is already contaminated with radioactive particles from fallout. 2
More than 2,000 nuclear tests have been conducted at over 60 locations since 1945. 2 Often, this has been on lands belonging to indigenous or minority peoples, usually without consultation. Some sites have been densely populated, and workers and downwind or downstream residents have suffered.
Timeline of Nuclear Tests, 1945-1998
Video creator Isao Hashimoto says:
This piece of work is a bird's eye view of the history by scaling down a month length of time into one second. No letter is used for equal messaging to all viewers without language barrier. The blinking light, sound and the numbers on the world map show when, where and how many experiments each country have conducted. I created this work for the means of an interface to the people who are yet to know of the extremely grave, but present problem of the world.
Even the production of nuclear materials is objectionable. One reason is that fissile materials remain toxic and useable for weapons for millennia. 22
Another is that mining uranium is highly harmful to human health and the environment. It can cause diseases in miners, industry workers, and nearby inhabitants, while waste tailings cause long-lasting radioactive and chemical pollution. In fact, no uranium mine in the world has ever been fully cleaned after the mine shut down. 22
From the global security point of view, the production, testing, and deployment of nuclear weapons allows nations to increase the lethality of their weapons. 2 The fact that 40 nations have nuclear power and/or research reactors capable of being diverted for weapons production 9 is worrisome since military and civilian nuclear programs are frequently affiliated. 22 Moreover, the normal release of radiation from reactors and spent fuel ponds means reactors are in effect pre-positioned bombs. 22
The case for shutting down nuclear reactors goes even further. Nuclear accidents such as those at Chernobyl, Ukraine, in 1986 or Fukushima, Japan, in 2011 eventually cause tens of thousands of deaths. Even within normal usage, reactors emit radiation into the air, water, and soil, increasing rates of leukemia in children living within 50 kilometres. 22
Nuclear Weapons Ban
The tragic humanitarian and environmental harm that has been caused by nuclear weapons and reactors in the past and the potential for further harm in the future has prompted the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) to launch a Global Parliamentary Appeal for a Nuclear Weapons Ban. Parliamentarians around the globe are being asked to sign on in the hopes of building support for an international treaty outlawing the use, production, and stockpiling of nuclear weapons and calling for their complete eradication. The petition will be presented at various intergovernmental meetings throughout the next year to promote nuclear non-proliferation and disarmament.
Taking the position that the only guarantee against the spread and use of nuclear weapons is elimination, ICAN warns that because the Non-Proliferation Treaty obliging nations to negotiate in good faith for total nuclear disarmament remains largely unfulfilled, 23 a new comprehensive, irreversible, and binding treaty must be negotiated. ICAN says this should include a ban on the production of fissile materials, and existing stocks should be eliminated or securely controlled. An international monitoring system and agency should also be established to verify treaty compliance. All nuclear warheads must be taken off high-alert status immediately.
ICAN is not alone. It has over 300 supporters in over 70 countries, including Ceasefire in Canada. Furthermore, the Red Cross has been calling for banning nuclear weapons since September 1945, 20 and many other organisations worldwide have identified the same goal.
In fact, 151 of the world’s countries support a ban, while 22, including Canada, remain undecided, and 22 more are in opposition. 24 Those which are unsure or that oppose a ban generally either possess nuclear weapons or claim to be protected by a country that does (Canada is such a one). Such doubt and opposition demonstrates the fear and mistrust engendered by nuclear weapons.
The Canadian government could be persuaded to support ICAN’s Appeal. A representative had officially stated in 2011 that Canada “is not opposed to the pursuit of a comprehensive, multilateral agreement banning nuclear weapons,” but in slow incremental steps based on “the pragmatic recognition that we cannot do everything at once.” 24 So, the country should be pleased with ICAN’s suggestion that a ban be implemented one step at a time, 23 and should have no objection to signing on!
Expenditure should also concern budget-conscious politicians. Nuclear-armed nations spend close to US $3 billion per day on their nuclear forces, or about $105 billion per year globally. That’s US $12 million per hour! 25 Wouldn’t that money be better spent on improving public services and infrastructure, increasing humanitarian aid, investing in a clean energy program, reducing national debts, and developing effective security policies?
UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon says, “The world is over-armed and peace is under-funded.” 25
And it’s no joke. The UN’s Office for Disarmament Affairs has a budget of $10 million per year, while spending on nuclear weapons in 2010 was twice the amount of official development assistance provided to Africa. 25
That’s ridiculous. Why should the taxpayer’s dollar fund harmful nuclear policies instead of beneficial public programs?
A nuclear weapons ban makes sense because their use in war violates international humanitarian law — they kill civilians indiscriminately, harm people in neighbouring and distant countries who have nothing to do with the conflict, and cause long-term environmental damage. 26 The World Court reinforced this in 1996, saying the threat or use of nuclear weapons is illegal. 27
So what’s the world waiting for? Governments already warned in 2010 of the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of inaction. 23

TEHRAN (FNA)- Russian media reported that a single BMPT-72 named 'Terminator 2' has been sent to Syria for anti-terrorism battles.According to the Arabic desk of Sputnik news agency, the 'devastating monster' was shown to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad last week when he visited the Russian base at Humeimim.
The Terminator 2 is a tank that is designed to protect other tanks, specially in urban areas. It’s built from refurbished hulls from the venerable T-72 main battle tank. But instead of mounting a big 125-millimeter cannon, the BMPT-72 is armed a remarkably diverse suite of weapons that includes two thirty-millimeter cannon, four Ataka-T antitank missiles and a heavy machine gun. This gives the Terminator 2 the capability to engage infantry and light armored vehicles with its cannon, and tanks and buildings with its guided antitank missiles.

The first version of the Terminator was designed in the late 1990s. It was a five-man vehicle based on the chassis of the T-90 tank, according to Russian media.
It was armed with two hull-mounted thirty-millimeter automatic grenade launchers in addition to the other weapons, notes Jane’s 360. The Terminator 2, first unveiled in 2013, subtracted the grenade launchers and reduced the crew size to three.
The concept of the “tank support combat vehicle” arose after Russian experiences in Afghanistan and Chechnya.
Russia’s initial response was to escort its tanks with ZSU-23-4 Shilka self-propelled antiaircraft guns, which could rapidly pump out cannon fire to suppress hostile antitank teams. However, the ZSU-23-4 was lightly armored and not equipped to detect ground targets.
Hence the BMPT was designed as a “versatile and mobile weapon for protecting tanks,” explained Sputnik News. “According to the initial conception, vehicles of this type should be used alongside tanks on the battlefield and destroy any potentially dangerous target.”
Media sources reported last week observing a number of advanced Terminator tanks in the Russian-run Humeimim airbase during President al-Assad's visit to the base.
The Arabic-language Sputnik reported that a number of very strong Russia-made Terminator Tanks have been seen in images of Assad's visit to Humeimim military airport in Lattakia province, adding that Russia had never declared anything about deploying this kind of tank in Syria.
According to report, Terminator is similar to T-72 but is equipped with stronger weapons, adding that the tank's main mission is providing support for friendly tanks in the battlefields and destroying enemy tanks by missile fire.
Terminator is capable of targeting and destroying other tanks and armored vehicles from a 6km distance.
According to a military source, Terminator tanks that had not been used in battle against terrorists will be present in the upcoming war on ISIL in Syrian Desert.
Photos and images of the recent visit by Syrian President to Humeimim airbase also showed that the Russian Air Force has also deployed more modern warplanes and missiles in Syria recently.
The photos showed that Russia has deployed its Su-27 SM3 in Humeimim airbase which is the last model of Su-27 had not been previously seen in Syria.
In the meantime, RVV-SD missiles, a version of the Jojo guided missiles, were seen in the footages of Humeimim air field.
The first visit of Assad to the Humeimim came after the recent statements of the White House spokesperson about an alleged impending gas attack by the Syrian government.
The Spokesperson accused Syria of preparing to stage a chemical attack in the country, threatening that Washington would make Damascus pay “a heavy price.”
Moscow launched its campaign against the Takfiri terrorist groups in Syria upon a request from Damascus in September 2015.

Not known Facts About glock 18
Not known Facts About glock 18
When I initially started off employing it, it only took a single vacation to your assortment for me to really feel snug with the entire process of prepping, loading, shooting, and dealing with the weapon. Due to its sizing, storage is no trouble both.
The mechanics powering the full-vehicle is in fact quite easy. The “cross” part of the result in bar provides a elevated additional tab.
The firing pin safety is usually a solid hardened metal pin that, from the secured condition, blocks the firing pin channel (disabling the firing pin in its longitudinal axis). It truly is pushed upward to launch the firing pin for firing only in the event the induce is actuated and the protection is pushed up throughout the backward movement of your result in bar. The fall security guides the set off bar in a ramp that is introduced only when direct rearward stress is placed on the cause. The a few safety mechanisms are routinely disengaged just one after the other in the event the set off is squeezed, and are routinely reactivated in the event the induce is launched.[twenty]
Dating back again to the times from the early 20th century, many firearms designers incorporated pick out-fireplace capabilities to the rather tiny deal of the handgun.
I believe I’d possibly want a inventory that’s just a little additional robust. That said, we had no real concerns with it beyond some gentle apprehension.
As I reported earlier, the Glock eighteen is an entire ton much like the Glock 17…just with a few additional fun designed-in. But that said, let’s even now run from the specs for you personally quantities nerds.
Glock pistols are made in five sort variables, all modeled after the initial whole-sized Glock seventeen. "Standard" versions are made as comprehensive-sized responsibility firearms with a sizable magazine capability. "Compact" types are a little bit smaller with decreased magazine capacity and lighter bodyweight even though keeping a usable grip size. "Subcompact" styles are created for a lot easier have and staying lighter and shorter, are meant to be utilised with two fingers to the grip underneath the induce guard and absence an accessory rail such as the greater, right after generation two, Glock models.
Equipment pistols have largely fallen by the wayside in the globe jam packed with ultra-compact PDWs presenting much more firepower with very little bulk. But it is intriguing to experience their too much to handle charge of hearth firsthand.
3 lbf) or to 31 N (7.0 lbf).[sixty three] Once the pistol is billed, the firing pin is while in the fifty percent-cock position. Given that the trigger is pulled, the firing pin is then thoroughly cocked. At the conclusion of its journey, the cause bar is tilted downward because of the connector, releasing the firing pin to fireplace the cartridge. The connector resets the cause bar so the firing pin is going to be captured in 50 percent-cock at the end of the firing cycle. This is referred to as a preset bring about mechanism, often called the "Safe and sound motion" cause through the producer. The connector makes certain the pistol can only fire semiautomatically.
The one metallic pieces are the barrel and set off system. Even though this pistol is manufactured from polymer, it operates effectively in just a temperature vary from -forty°C to +200°C.
Almost all of the other traits are akin to the Glock seventeen, Even though the slide, body, and sure fireplace-Manage areas of the Glock 18 will not be interchangeable with other Glock styles.
Well, not that Lots of people have in any case. So exactly what is this legendary Glock 18 and how does it manage its comprehensive-car goodness? Glad you questioned, not merely are we lovers on the plastic fantastics, but we also take place to have shot a gull car Glock 18 in all its glory.
 They are also prohibited from possession in Canada on account of not meeting minimum amount glock 18 barrel size specifications for handguns.
The Glock 18 is dimensionally similar to the Glock 17, with only A few distinctions. 1 change would be the presence of a turret-formed selector activate the right rear aspect on the slide.


Halion One is one of the Mehrksis' mechanical guardians.
Halion is a tall, vaguely anteater-like mech. He has six green eyes and large, forward-facing spikes, as well as large fangs. His armor is dark blue and is striped with dark grey, and has some minor silver highlights. It consists mostly of sharp ridges. He possesses large, clawed fingers, and his tail is tipped by a spiked club. He has three clawed toes and assorted weapons attached to his body; more prominently two cannons on his back.
Halion One's AI is stoic and silent. It shows regard towards its allies, but has no mercy for its targets. It is both suited for long-ranged and close-ranged combat. It is highly intelligent - using several different strategies when one does work.
Ixion is the name given to the electric weapon attached to Halion One's back. It is notably his favourite. It is a spiked mace, attached to a chain composed of lightning bolts. It leaves concussive blasts on what it hits and is mostly useful for crushing objects, while the spikes on the mace hack, hook and slash. The blue mecha can even hook enemies against the spikes and slam them on the ground. When sheathed, the mace folds by separating into plates so that it does not hinder the mechanical warrior's movements, and is kept within a specific compartment between his shoulder cannons. Ixion is constantly charged with electricity with the exception of when it is sheathed, preventing enemies to steal it.
|Flamethrower:||A simple flamethrower that is installed at the back of his throat.|
|Flare:||The gladiator can overheat his fiery core and expel a wave of flames outwards.|
Roughly 300 meters long each, these are whips made of flame, as their name implies. Their handles are installed on Halion's thighs. Similarly to Ixion, the whips' fire extinguish when stored.
Shot from the large cannons mounted against Halion One's shoulder blades. These are a total of 32 red, auto-guided bomb-like projectiles made of alien energy. They explode on contact, with the explosion lingering for a moment, choking foes while the bombs do their work. They are very accurate, fast and useful for punching through tough materials, but there is a drawback; it takes time for the weapon to reload by automatically recreating bombs. However, the mechanical being can use only one cannon at a time and use the other while it reloads to make up for it.
|Electromagnetic Launchers/Railway Spike Guns:||Installed into the hands' knuckles are EMLs/RSGs, guns that use electromagnetism to fire incendiary rounds at a very high velocity. They have a rapid rate of fire and, as aforementioned, the spikes they fire are set ablaze after they are shot. They are used to penetrate tough materials, before setting the inside of them on fire.|
Meat grinder-like weapons installed on the underside of Halion One's forearms. They are useful when a foe is grappling with the mecha. They are usually retracted and protected by armor plates, and the plates will slide sideways to reveal the blades, which will then stick out. Alternatively, HO can retrieve the blades themselves and throw them.
|Laser Katana:||Kept sheathed on the side of the mech's left shin. It is, at its name suggests, a katana sword that has a red laser blade, which extinguish when sheathed.|
|Electrokinesis:||Halion One possesses electrokinesis, the ability to control electricity, which gives him a wide array of possible attacks and moves. Notably, the machine will use it to travel faster in the air, fire electric blasts, drain objects that contain electricity to recharge his power supply, etc. He uses it strategically by reaching opponents with the help of conductible surfaces.|
This is a simple green beam used mainly to knock foes back.
Halion's armor features sharp edges, spikes and large claws that are excellent at cutting and giving him an edge in melee combat. Most notable are the large ones on his head, the elbow and knee spikes and the clubbed tail tip. The machine is a skilled melee fighter, as he is also programmed to train without any weapons in case he might need to. His mechanical muscles allow him to lift up foes twice his size above his head.
The mechanical warrior can throw his forearms at a distance of 500 meters. They are attached to an electric chain which reels them back on.
|Gravity Guns:||Installed in his elbow spikes, the shotgun-like weapon alters gravity to throw foes off their feet and rip out chunks off their bodies.|
|Plasma Grenades:||Green landmines that glue themselves to nearby enemies if they get too close - in a radius of 100 meters - before bursting. The special acid they contain allows them to melt metal.|
|Flight:||With the help of six ion jets scattered across his body - two on his back, two below his shoulders and two behind the thighs - Halion can fly at speeds up to Mach 3. He can go even faster with his electrokinesis.|
|Grappling Hooks:||Installed right besides the Meat Grinder, these are sharp grappling hooks used to immobilize enemies. They will drain a portion of the electric activity of the brain, effectively slowing the opponents down considerably.|
Shot from the shoulder pods, these are auto-guided freezing burst missiles. Halion One will commonly fire them into an enemy's open mouth or gaping wounds.
|Shielded Circuitry:||The gladiator has not much to fear about his circuitry, minus enemy attacks. He is immune to thermal stress and high magnetism.|
|Armor Plating:||Since HO is built mainly to fend off kaiju, it ia only natural for him to have many tricks down the sleeve to fight them. The blue mech's armor can shrug off thermal stress, because of his electrokinesis and fiery core; he instead absorbs both thermal energy and electricity to power himself. The plating is resistant to bullets and piercing attacks to an extent, but had more trouble with blunt moves. However, to make up for it, Halion's armor has spiny edges to protect him from blunt moves to an extent.|
|Zhu-Rong Flare:||Halion One can release a huge, powerful shockwave, named after the ancient Chinese god of fire. Its force creates a crater where the mech is standing. The blast has a radius of 1000 meters, with the explosion itself having a radius of 500 meters - the rest is the air heating, causing enemies to suffocate and blisters and burns will then affect them. The shockwave will send enemies flying with their body ablaze and tear up the ground like a carpet.|

Carrying a knife is like carrying any other tool. It opens up different opportunities for you to practice your skill even if it’s as simple as opening a package for someone or whittling wood for kindling. However, tools are not made equal and that is the same case with knives. Some designs fare better than others when it comes to utility, safety, and versatility. If you want to carry a knife with you at all times, it must be something that can prove useful for you the moment you need it. This is where tactical knives come in.
We came up with this list to give you a better understanding of the most functional tactical knives on the market. We believe that a great value knife should be able to make tasks easier for you, not make them an even greater challenge. We’ve also come up with a few points to consider when buying a tactical knife to help you make the best-informed decision.
We believe that tactical knives are one of the most important tools in anyone’s arsenal. It’s a piece of equipment that will help you with your daily chores and it’s always reassuring to know that you have one with you whenever the situation calls for it. This is the reason why survivalists, handymen, and outdoor enthusiasts swear by them and that’s why we think you should, too.
Choosing a tool as simple as a knife may not be as simple as you may think. There are a lot of factors to consider nowadays, especially with the advancement in knife design, materials, and manufacturing techniques. However, we wanted to simplify things and help you make an informed decision based on a few criteria we've set. We've checked and reviewed all the options on this list and we're happy to say that they all passed our requirements. Here are some things we considered when we came up with this buyer's guide:
Build quality: A tactical knife should be a tool you can rely on. It's something that you don't want to fail on you when you need it the most. That is why build quality is one of the top considerations when we made this list. The picks that made it should be of great build quality that can withstand the wear and tear of daily use, especially when it comes to heavy and demanding tasks.
Features: One thing that we particularly wanted to see on our list is a good set of features. A good tactical or EDC knife should be a one-handed opener so you can easily deploy it whenever you need to. Fiddling around with a knife using both hands is not an option every time so a flipper knife or quick-deploy knife is ideal. You should be able to use your knife whenever you need it, even with just one hand.
Other features like ambidextrous thumb studs, holes, or plates are also welcome. They add another easy deployment feature to the mix. Deep carry pocket clips with a reversible option and provision for tip-up or tip-down carry is also a great feature. This will let the user personalize their carry option to suit their needs. Tip-up carry is by far one of the quickest ways to deploy a one-handed opener knife since you can easily deploy the knife as you draw it from your pocket. No need to change the orientation before opening.
Other tools like screwdrivers, pliers, glass breakers, and seat belt cutters also add to the overall appeal of a tactical knife. They bring another layer of utility to the package, making the knife an even more useful tool. It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it at all.
Blade shape and material: The blade shape is also important when choosing a knife. Know what you want to use the knife for and pick a blade shape that you can work with. Cutting up boxes or opening up packages are easy to do with almost any blade shape but cutting ropes and other cordage may call for a serrated blade. Full serrations are specific for rope cutting tasks while half-serrated blades are great for any ordinary EDC knife.
Remember that you also need to sharpen your blade to maintain its edge and blade shape can also affect the maintenance aspect of your knife. Make sure that your knife's blade shape doesn't make sharpening and honing a difficult task. If you're a beginner, it may take some practice to get the edge that you want so make sure you put in time and effort if you want to do it yourself or hire a professional to do it for you. The material of the blade is also important when it comes to edge retention. Some steels are easier to hone but don't keep an edge well, while others are the exact opposite. Doing research will help you understand the characteristics of different steels but for the sake of making things simple, we included knives made of durable steels that are also easy to maintain.
Handle: A good blade and a whole set of nifty features won't matter if you have a handle that's uncomfortable and prone to slipping. Imagine having a sharp knife in your hand and the handle is falling apart while you use it. That's a recipe for disaster. A good knife should also have a handle that is grippy and well-made. The bolts should be tight to make sure that the scales or handles don't move around while you're using the knife.
Contour and grooves are also important in a good knife handle. The knife should feel comfortable in your hand that is why modern knife makers incorporate ergonomic handles into their designs. Even after prolonged or heavy use, the knife shouldn't leave blisters or cuts in your hands.
Other things that contribute to a good grip in a knife are the finger choil and thumb rest. These two help you do pressure cuts with your knife while maintaining a good grip on the blade. The finger choil is the rounded part on the bite side of the blade where your index finger rests so you have better control of the knife. The thumb rest is the place on the back of the blade where you put pressure to make deeper cuts, hence the name push cut. Not only do these things make using the knife safer, but they also give you more control and help you make more precise cuts
Carry options: The usual carry options for an everyday carry knife include the use of a pocket tool, sheath, and necklace. Using pocket clips is one of the most useful ways to carry a knife since it's easily accessible to the user. Sheaths are also a good option for carrying a knife since you can attach it to a belt, backpack, or even a harness for boy scout and concealed carry. A necklace is also a good option, particularly for neck knives that are mostly used for discreet and concealed carry. Lanyard holes are also common in pocket knives since you can use them to attach a paracord to the end of your knife that lets you fish it out of your pocket when needed.
User ratings: User reviews and ratings are always important criteria for us since we can check our reviews along with the experience of other people. There's nothing like getting honest feedback from real people who used the equipment that we are reviewing and recommending.
Value: A knife doesn't have to be expensive to be good. Sometimes, the best value knives are those that can bring you great features without costing you an arm. Good value can be had if you do your research and trust only reputable sellers and manufacturers. A good knife company will know what it's doing and what the customer needs. The price tag should be worthy of the features and overall quality of the knife.

Best Tactical Knife/EDC Knife
The first entry on our list comes from a knife brand that is well known for its build quality and effective designs. The Kershaw Clash is our best pocket knife pick with great overall features and an attractive price tag. Not to mention, it uses the patented SpeedSafe deployment system that was designed by award-winning knife maker Ken Onion.
If you’re a knife nut then you already know of the brand Kershaw. Even if you’re not a fan of knives or blades, chances are, you may have already heard about or seen their knives in action. Kershaw is a fan favorite when it comes to cutlery—from EDC (everyday carry) knives to tactical knives and everything in between.
Often imitated but never duplicated, the SpeedSafe assisted opening system of the Clash is probably one of its best features. It’s a quick and efficient opening system that uses a flipper tab on the back of the blade to propel it outward with the help of a spring mechanism. This design revolutionized the way knives are opened and inspired a whole lot of knife designs and even other knife manufacturers.
It’s a welcome feature if you need to use your knife with just one hand. You just flip the tab and the blade springs into action. One-hand deployment anytime, every time. This makes the Kershaw clash an easy recommendation for us. Easy deployment is one of the first things we consider when it comes to tactical or EDC knives.
On to the blade. The Clash uses a 3.1” 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade that is a great size for most everyday tasks. It’s not too short to lack utility for other chores and it’s not too big that it’s intimidating. It’s just the right size. The blade material is also a good choice for daily chores. 8Cr13MoV is a popular choice among knife enthusiasts for its robust quality and edge retention. This is a tough blade that is capable of taking hits every time for a long time.
One thing we like about the number one pick on our list is its drop-point blade shape. This is a particularly useful blade shape that makes sharpening easy and can be used for tasks that require stabbing and slicing action. The partially-serrated blade is also especially useful if you need to cut rope and paracord when you’re outdoors.
On to the grip. This blade uses a textured black grip made of glass-filled nylon. While this is not the most premium material for knife scales or grips, it’s one of the most durable. This resin composite material can take a beating from everyday use including bumps and falls. It’s a tough material and a simple pattern that gets the job done.
The shape of the grip is also ergonomic, making daily chores more manageable and comfortable. We especially like the finger choil and thumb rest on the backside of the blade that lets users “choke” the blade when doing push cuts. The added grip will give your hand more pushing power as you make kindling and do pressure cuts on tougher materials.
With over 6,000 ratings on Amazon, it’s easy to say that the Kershaw Clash is a fan favorite. Considering all the points we stated above, we can say that this is the best tactical knife for sale in 2022 in our opinion. With a $39.87 price tag, this is a blade only increases its value proposition and cements its top spot on this list. It’s a do-it-all option for everyone, knife enthusiast or not.
Other nifty features: wide reversible pocket clip for tip-up and tip-down carry, liner lock safety mechanism, 4.25” closed length for easy storage, and black-oxide blade finish.
|Features||3.1” 440C stainless steel blade with black finish|

Best Large Tactical Knife for Sale in 2022
Cuts like a knife, built like a pistol. The SWMP4LS from Smith & Wesson is a great addition to any knife collection. Its set of useful features and solid construction earn it the number three spot on our list. It’s also budget-friendly at $28.45.
If you’re looking for an assisted opening tactical knife then this might be the one for you. One of the highlights of the SWMP4LS is its quick deployment mechanism. Powered by a spring, the blade goes into action with a flick of the switch. The deployment is responsive and is perfect for instances when you need a blade at the ready. This feature is especially helpful if you’re a first responder in a situation where every second counts.
Aside from the switch on the top of the blade, you can also do a one-hand opening with the help of the thumb plates. The plates have grooves that help you open and engage the spring and open the blade in a quick motion.
The SWMP4LS also comes with a safety switch that adds another layer of security to the knife. It’s a simple slide switch with color indicators that help you identify if the blade is live or not. This is an extremely helpful tool to prevent accidental deployment and injuries, especially when inside a pocket or bag compartment. Smith & Wesson brings its gun-making expertise into the design of the knife as it does with its range of popular pistols like the M&P series.
The 3.6” half-serrated blade is black-oxide coated to give it that tactical look. The coating also protects it from wear and tear from daily use. The partially-serrated blade is particularly useful in cutting cordage or seatbelts in car crashes. Speaking of car crashes, the SWMP4LS also comes with a glass breaker spike, making it a great emergency tool.
Simple, useful, and affordable, the SWMP4LS is a great choice for a tactical knife. Other nifty features include the ergonomic aluminum handle and pocket clip.
|Features||3.4” blade length, made of 8CR13MoV stainless steel|

Best Tactical Knife with Belt Cutter
One of our top picks is the Steinbrucke Tactical Folding Knife with Belt Cutter. It secures the number four spot on our list with a collection of useful features and good build quality. It’s a perfect tool to have in your car or on your person in case of emergencies, thanks to its glass breaker and seatbelt cutter features.
One trait of a good tactical knife is versatility. It should be capable of performing different tasks when needed and it needs to do them well. This is the case with the Steinbrucke folding knife design. It has a sharp 3.4” half-serrated blade that is capable of making easy work of cutting tasks including cutting rope and other cordage. It also has a built-in glass breaker and seatbelt cutter that are essential tools in case of car crashes.
The seatbelt cutter is particularly useful since it doesn’t have any exposed blades that can nick or cut the passenger as you cut the belt. All you need to do is slide the belt material into the slot where the blade rests and pull to cut the person loose. In an accident, it’s best to keep damage to a minimum by being precise with your actions and decisions.
Another important feature of the knife is the glass breaker. Like the seatbelt cutter, the glass breaker is also an important tool to have in case of car crashes. You can use the hardened tip to shatter automotive glass when it’s the only option you have to get a person out of a car wreck. These two features make this Steinbrucke model a great choice for first responders or for people who like to be ready for any scenario.
Other features that also make this a versatile EDC blade are the durable 8CR13MoV steel, textured handles for added grip, flipper tab and thumb studs for one-handed opening, and reversible pocket clip for more carry options. In our opinion, this is one of those budget knife options that offer a lot of value. Priced at $19.99, this is a great first knife option or an everyday carry piece that’s always ready to spring into action.
|Features||4.5” blade length, made with 3CR13 steel for toughness|

|Overall Dimensions||9.7 x 3.6 x 1.5”|
|Item Weight||290 g|
|Blade Material||3CR13 stainless steel|
Best Tactical Fixed Blade Knife
While folding knives dominate our list, there are also fixed blades that made the cut. Coming in at the number five spot is the S-Tec 9” Full Tang Tactical Knife.
The advantage of folding knives is portability. Due to their compact build, they can fold into the handle to keep a smaller print when being concealed. Fixed blades on the other hand are usually longer and harder to conceal. They also need a sheath for daily carry, unlike folding knives.
However, fixed blades offer different and common carrying and drawing options like the cross draw or boy scout carry. Fixed blades can be easier to deploy since all you need to do is draw it from the sheath, no flipping or flicking thumb studs needed. The S-Tec benefits from this. Being a fixed blade, its deployment is quick and simple. The additional swivel sheath also helps as it lets you use different drawing directions when lashed on a belt, boot, or backpack strap.
The S-Tec also has an ergonomic handle for proper grip. The herringbone texture on the knife scales provides additional style and grip along with the contoured handle. The finger loop on the other end of the blade makes for a great retention system that prevents accidental slipping.
The blade length of the S-Tec is also a noteworthy feature. The 4.5” ample length makes it ideal for the outdoors especially cutting, chopping, batoning, and other bushcraft tasks. Being a fixed blade, this pick is durable and isn’t prone to breaking since it doesn’t have any moving parts that can loosen with heavy use.
So if you’re looking for an affordable fixed blade that has nice features and doesn’t break the bank, the S-Tec 9 might be the one for you. In our opinion, it’s a great bang-for-your-buck option that mixes function with form very well, making it the best tactical fixed blade knife on our list. It’s currently available on Amazon for $19.99.
|Features||4.9” blade length, made with AUS-8 stainless steel|
|Full-tang construction for heavy use|
|Half-serrated for cutting ropes and cordage|
|Contoured GRN grips for easy handling and robust use|
|Clip point blade with harpoon tip|
|Comes with a sheath for storage and various carrying options|
|Jimping on the backside of the blade for precise pressure cutting tasks|
|Overall Dimensions||9.6 x 1.5 x 0.73”|
|Item Weight||286 g|
|Blade Material||AUS-8 stainless steel|
Best Tactical Belt Knife
SOG used a Vietnam War-era design to make yet another successful knife. Enter the SEAL Strike Fixed Blade from SOG—the best tactical belt knife on our list.
The bowie knife is a widely-known design all over the world and it was made even more popular by the studies and observations group (SOG) of the US Military back in the Vietnam War. The iconic knife design and the legendary military group proved to be enough inspiration for SOG to create a useful tactical and multi-purpose knife.
The Seal Strike is a functional tactical knife steeped in military history. The design is said to be the number choice of the infamous SOG. Now adapted to modern and more peaceful times, the classic design is a great tactical knife choice for everyday use.
The 4.9” half-serrated blade is black coated to give it that tactical look. It’s also a fully functional rope cutting tool thanks to its partial serrations on the blade. The blade length is sufficient for bushcraft work. The full tang construction also gives the knife a more rigid and durable feel, a feature that you would want to have in survival situations where failure is not an option.
This is a fixed blade knife that is capable of doing many things. Partner that with a variety of carrying options and you have a versatile blade. The SOG Seal Strike can be lashed onto a backpack, used as a boot knife, or fitted to a tactical belt for concealed everyday carry. The sheath is where most fixed blades fail, but that is not the case with the Seal Strike.
Other features that make this a great tactical belt knife include the glass-reinforced nylon handle that is thicker and more grippy compared to other SOG Seal knives, aggressive jimping on the backside of the blade for added grip and control when doing precise cuts, curved guard for pulling free when stuck in target, and contoured handle that fits well in the hand.
Currently priced at $96.64 on Amazon, the Seal Strike from SOG offers great value with its great build quality and well-thought-out features. In our opinion, the extra cash you shell out for this blade is well worth the investment. You get a quality piece from a reputable knife maker that is purpose-built and mission-ready.

Best Tactical Neck Knife
At number seven, we have the Stretta Tactical Neck Knife from Kilimanjaro. This small but capable knife is mainly used for self-defense but it can also double as a lightweight fixed blade for light-duty tasks.
One of the main reasons to buy a neck knife is for tactical purposes. Considered by many as a “last ditch” weapon, the neck knife has become increasingly popular among knife enthusiasts in recent years.
One defining trait of a neck knife is its small size and the Kilimanjaro Stretta has that in the bag. The Stretta features a 3.2” blade length and an overall length of just 6.4”, making it an ideal choice for neck carry. The small footprint lets you conceal it under a shirt or even in a boot for deployment.
The Stretta uses the widely-known 8CR13MoV steel for its toughness and durability. It also features a fixed blade design and a finger hole for easy use and safe deployment when needed. The contoured grip and rubberized handle make it comfortable for light cutting tasks when used as an EDC blade.
Being a neck knife, the Stretta has a push-button sheath and chain as the main deployment option. Users have praised the Kilimanjaro Stretta for its sharpness right out of the box, jimping on the spine of the blade, and overall usable size for everyday carry.
In our opinion, the Stretta makes for a compelling choice when it comes to choosing a tactical neck knife for everyday carry. It’s slick and simple to use and is relatively inexpensive. Get one now at Amazon for only $19.97.

Best Tactical Survival Knife
Coming in at number eight, we have the Snake Eye Heavy Duty Tactical Knife. This one is a chunky fixed blade that will feel at home in any outdoor or survivalist setting. It’s a simple fixed blade knife that will do the job done, no questions asked.
Sporting a large 5.5” blade, this pick from Snake Eye Tactical offers a lot of steel for any outdoor use. Its heavy-duty full tang construction will make sure that it can handle any cutting, chopping, or slashing task you throw at it. The black finish helps in giving this knife the tactical look while adding protection against wear and rust. If you’re always out in the elements, you’d especially like the added protection to keep your blade always ready for action.
This survival knife has a tanto point, making it ideal for cutting through tough materials including tin cans when a can opener just won’t do. The straight edge of the blade also makes sharpening and honing easy even when out in the bush. The 3CR13 is a great steel choice since it’s hard-wearing and can be sharpened easily even in the field.
Other features that make this knife a good tactical survival knife are its wide contoured handle, lashing holes on the blade guard for adaptability on the field, lanyard hole for paracord attachments, and included nylon sheath for carrying. Currently priced at $49.95 on Amazon, this makes for a great backup tactical knife in our opinion. Just throw it in your go-bag or main pack and you’re all set for most cutting tasks that may come your way.

Best Large Tactical Knife
An absolute beast of a knife, the Proponent from Artisan Cutlery is still an exciting choice at number nine. This overbuilt tactical knife is a heavy-duty tool that is meant to be used and abused all day, every day.
Artisan Cutlery has garnered a lot of praise for its knife designs through the years and they did it again with the Proponent. This blacked-out tactical knife hits the right balance between function and form as it performs well and looks good at the same time. While most people—even some knife enthusiasts—may be discouraged by its heft and size, it has found a perfect niche in the knife community as an oversized EDC and tactical option.
The crowning jewel of this fun and functional knife is its massive 4” long blade. It dwarfs other big tactical folders and is geared towards heavy use. It’s made with D2 steel so you are guaranteed prolonged heavy use and with the included hardened steel pin that screws into the blade and the body of the handle, you can beat this knife up even further without worrying about breaking it in the process. The screw pin is a simple but effective addition to the overall design of the Proponent. Batoning and chopping will be easy tasks with a blade of this size, weight, and durability.
One-handed opening is also not a problem with the Proponent. The large ambidextrous thumb studs are easy to use and the addition of a flipper tab makes opening a lot more convenient. Closing it is no different—just flick down the liner lock and the blade closes on its own due to the weight of the blade. Of course, Artisan Cutlery added their ceramic ball bearing to make sure that deployment and closing are as smooth as they can get.
Ergonomics is also a noteworthy characteristic of the Proponent. Its large G10 handles are milled and fit the hand nicely thanks to its patterns and the grippy texture of the material. The finger choil is also enough to control the weight of the blade and the additional jimping on the backside of the knife gives the user ample support for push cuts.
Artisan Cutlery brought life to the design of renowned knife maker Dan Pinkerton and made a budget-friendly but well-built knife. Whether you’re looking for a serious daily carry knife or just want something fun to have in your collection, the Artisan Cutlery is a good knife to consider. The blacked-out Proponent with G10 scales is currently priced at $69.99. In our opinion, this is a great oversized knife with a tactical look for heavy-duty use.
|Features||3.5” blade length|
|Made with CJRB’s AR-RPM9 steel material|
|Cleaver-style blade for cutting and chopping|
|One-handed opening design with flipper tab|
|Ceramic ball bearing for smooth deployment|
|Liner lock mechanism for safety|
|Double-layer G10 handle scales|
|Lanyard hole and pocket clip for varied carry options|
|Overall Dimensions||5.16 x 2.4 x 1.06”|
|Item Weight||180 g|
|Locking mechanism||Liner lock|
Best Tactical Cleaver
A whole lot of blade for not a whole lot of money. The Tigris from CJRB is a fairly new cleaver-style knife. It was introduced just in February of 2021 and it has been getting good reviews from users and knife enthusiasts from all over the world.
This is a big knife and there’s no other way to go around that. While others love using tactical knives that have a slimmer profile and a smaller footprint, the CJRB Tigris is for knife nuts who want something substantial and robust. The hefty and almost 1.5” wide black coated blade is perfect for cutting tasks and it’s also nice to look at. It’s hard to imagine putting a big blade like this in your pocket but it works due to the contours of the blade handle and custom pocket clip.
In our opinion, this is one of the best-looking knives on this list due to its unique styling and character. We’re loving the wide and hefty blade that doesn’t look threatening. This makes it especially useful for daily chores around people who may not be too exposed to knives. A chunky cleaver may not be the first thing that comes to mind when tactical knives are the topic but the Tigris makes a compelling point if you’re looking for a fun and functional folding knife.
One feature of the Tigris that makes it a runner-up on this list is its blade material. CJRB wanted to use steel that is a little bit better than G2 steel so instead of trying out different steels on the market, they decided to make one on their own. That’s when the AR-RPM9 steel was developed. The new steel that CJRB used in the Tigris is proving to be reliable and functional without bumping up the manufacturing costs.
The overall silhouette of the Tigris is also a noteworthy feature. The designers did a good job making the knife appear less bulky with its curves and unexpectedly slim profile. The double-layered G10 handle (which is a first for CJRB) also helped in making the blade appear thinner than it is.
We’re loving the combination of blue and black G10 scales since they give the knife another interesting visual element. The shape of the handle along with the grippy G10 material makes handling this knife both secure and reassuring.
Other features that make this knife still a great choice for everyday carry are its smooth ceramic ball bearing that helps make deployment a pleasurable experience, its responsive flipper tab, colorful backspacer that also houses the lanyard hole, liner locking mechanism, and its custom-designed pocket clip that helps with deep pocket carry.
One thing to note: the pocket clip is right-hand side only. Sorry about that lefties and people who want different tip carry options. Priced currently at $59.95, this is a great choice for a folding tactical knife with a big and bold presence.

Folding Knives vs. Fixed Blades?
We’re going to cover two types of tactical knives—the folding knife and the fixed blade knife. Both knives have unique characteristics that make them ideal for daily use. Let’s break down some of their features and identify which one you should choose for your next tactical knife.
Tactical Folding Knife
Folding knives are a popular choice for EDC or everyday carry due to their compact size and mix of useful features. Some picks on this list incorporate various tools into their design and have a variety of mechanisms to make them stand out.
Simply put, a tactical folding knife is a tactical pocket knife that can open with the help of a thumb stud or a flipper tab that greatly helps with one-handed operation. Unlike traditional pocket knives that have fingernail nicks that need two-handed opening, you can open a tactical folding knife with your thumb or index finger.
Some designs even have a wave opening feature that lets you open your knife by simply pulling it out of your pocket as a protruding piece on the back of the blade activities the deployment mechanism. This is especially useful if you need to do a quick draw with your blade in emergencies.
One advantage of folding knives is their small footprint and they are relatively lightweight, making them easy to carry on your person in a variety of ways. They typically have pocket clips and lanyard holes that add carrying options. However, since folding knives have moving parts, they need to be maintained including the spring, pivot, and locking mechanism. Excessive hard use may be harmful to the components and you might need to replace parts like spacers and springs once they get worn out.
Tactical Fixed Blade Knife
Most tactical fixed blade knives are designed specifically for combat. However, they have been adapted to daily use by outdoor enthusiasts due to their natural strength, durability, and simplicity.
A good fixed blade knife is indestructible. Sure, you can chip the blade or tip from hard use but that’s about everything you can do to a well-made fixed blade knife. They are strong and durable tools that can take on any task, big or small.
A fixed blade knife has fewer components—the blade, guard, handle, and pommel. That’s about it. Since there are no moving parts to maintain in a fixed blade, it is difficult to break and will serve you for many years given that you give it proper care.
On the other hand, most fixed blade knives are bulkier compared to folding knives. This makes daily carry more challenging especially if you’re in a city setting where there may be people who aren’t used to seeing full-sized knives being carried. They also need good sheaths so they don’t accidentally fall off when not in use.
Whether you choose a folding knife or fixed blade for your daily carry, you need to maintain them like any other tool so they can serve you for many years to come. For starters, it is good practice to lubricate the moving parts and even the blade to draw out moisture and avoid rusting. Blades used in harsh environments are prone to corrosion so it’s important to give them appropriate protection against moisture. If you plan to use your knife on meat and other food items, it is advisable to use food-safe oils to avoid contamination.
Sharpening and honing come at a close second. A dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp knife. You wouldn’t want your blade to skitter as you make a cut. That will lead to accidents and injuries. Sharpen your knife with a good whetstone or strop it to keep its edge.
If you’re not confident with your sharpening skills, there are simple DIY options out there like field sharpeners that already have a fixed sharpening degree so all you need to do is run your blade along the slot of the sharpener. Of course, you can always take your knife to a professional if you need to have more work done on it.
Another thing to consider is using a good sheath especially if you decide to go the fixed blade route. A good sheath will help you carry your knife better as you go about your daily routines. This essential accessory will help you keep your blade on your person at all times so you can use it whenever you need to.
As for folding knives, we would recommend checking your pocket clip now and then to make sure the screws are tightly fastened. The last thing you would want is a lost knife due to a faulty pocket clip. A few drops of a threadlocker can solve your loose pocket clip screw problems.
A knife is a useful tool for anyone. It’s one of those items that you’ll be glad you had on you when the need arises. Since it’s a tool, you should choose one that is durable, dependable, and effective. A tactical knife isn’t a toy so it’s always a good idea to train with it for any task you need it for. Always think about your safety and those around you when you take it out.
It’s also good to practice the principle of redundancy. Two is one and one is none. That is why most knife enthusiasts carry more than one knife on their person just for this reason. If you lose your main blade, you’ll always have another one as a backup.

Re: Survivalism In Your Home .
Need to have a gun and know how to use it!!!
Now is the time to do so. I keep getting a feeling that the USA will have a massive power outage. Look up EMP attack. That could be what I am sensing will come. Other possibility is a massive solar flare.
start with a revolver for a handgun. long gun, go with a 22.
learn how to use it, clean it and store it.
When this power outage happens you will need to protect yourself and your family. The USA doesn't have enough food in stock to last past a month. You can bet the government will be hoarding it for themselves first.
Something massive is coming. You will need to protect yourself because the police will not be able too and people will turn on each other.
If you are afraid of guns now...you will be even more afraid when one is pointed at you and some stranger takes all your food. It's gonna be dog eat dog.
Bow and arrow would be okay too but a handgun that you can conceal would be best.
Buy a gun, practice using it. Make sure it's a real gun too. Not a paintball gun, bb gun or squirt gun that looks real. This weapon may also be your primary method of hunting.
I suggest 3 weapons if you can:
1 handgun that is concealable. (dear lord - no dirty harry guns that are huge)
2. small cal rifle like a 22 vermin rifle. best for hunting rabbit and small game.
3. shotgun for hunting large game and home defense.
If you can only get one gun I suggest the 22 rifle. It's cheap, easy to use and will easily take small game without blowing a rabbit to pieces. You can carry it long distance, is okay for self defense but a higher cal would be better.
Those who think they will not need a gun need to ask themselves what they will do in the event of a total collapse of the power grids. Police will not come to their rescue, phones will not even work. Police officers will be going home to protect their own families.
We are going to lose the electrical grids, cell towers and radios. We will be looking at a situation of rationed gas, rationed food and no TV, internet, ect.
Please, rethink your strategy and prepare for the worst with whatever means you currently have.


The EchoFlight radar from Echodyne has received a commodity jurisdiction (CJ) determination from the US State Department. This means that the radar is now considered to be a commercial product exportable under the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (EAR) rather than the more restrictive International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) that apply to military items.EchoFlight is the first electronically scanning radar technology designed for mass production at commercial price points. This compact, low power, light-weight radar is the perfect sensor for integration into a wide variety of UAS platforms. Its long-range all-weather detection and tracking is critical for receiving authorization to fly beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) flights. The precision of our beam-steering radar minimizes collision risk by tracking aircraft locations at all times across a broad field-of-view.Echodyne will now be able to offer its groundbreaking air-to-air radar to US companies that employ non-US nationals and to non-US companies, promoting growth and safety of the commercial UAS market globally.The key to unlocking the potential of the commercial UAS industry is the ability for UAS to fly beyond visual line of sight and, eventually, autonomously. But to safely fly beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS), commercial UAS must be able to detect and avoid other aircraft and obstacles. For manned aircraft, the pilot performs this function. For unmanned aircraft, there needs to be a technological solution supported by an appropriate regulatory framework. EchoFlight radar offers this technological solution.Click here to learn more about the EchoFlight radar solution.


Master Richardt Botes Long range Wahoo
Since I started spearfishing (1985) till today Wahoo have been my nemesis fish! I just do not see any small Wahoo, only TANKS, and manage to plant fairly good shots (x 3) which they just seem to shake off with nonchalance and swim away unscathed!
In this video from Master Watermen we catch up with Master Richardt Botes on a boat dive on the South coast of KZN South Africa. On board we have Skipper Brett, PADI freediving instructor Charl Marais, Tyron Hunt, Zander and diving Diva Chrystal Botes. Chystal is busy getting in her practical dives in for the PADI course she is doing with Charl. The other lads are in it for the Wahoo!
Master Richardt is using his custom 1.2m Carbon cuttlefish Roller gun which you will see is an absolute machine for those long range shots on the sneaky Wahoo. The gun is made up to spec using a Rob Allen roller head, 7.5mm spear, handle and reel. Freedivers new 16mm outer and 1mm inner diameter roller bands are powering the gun. The carbon cuttlefish 1.2m barrel is imported from overseas.
Range is everything normally when it comes to actually getting a spear in a Wahoo and this gun has that in Spades. Quite often big blue water guns are overbanded woodies (wooden guns with 4 or 5 bands even!) just to get the range and the accuracy is dodgy to say the least! And the recoil is next level hence the two handed braced approach on the shot to secure the fish. As you will see in the footage the cuttlefish carbon barrel negates most of the recoil and the gun is still very accurate using one hand. And ONE band and at half the cost of an imported woodie gun!
I am sure with some more fine tuning these guns are definitely going to find their place (if they have not already) at the top of the Blue water hunters list of “I need” guns!
Enjoy the footage and the pace here on YouTube…https://youtu.be/6MQICkBVAiE
As always Dive safe and Straight Spears from the Bear


Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 2 has landed, and players have discovered that the game’s newly-added Havoc Pump Shotgun is capable of killing opponents with a single shot.
The Havoc Pump Shotgun arrived today (March 10) and although it dropped with a number of new weapons, the pump shotgun is the one capturing fans’ attention. That’s because, at close range, Mythic-tier versions of the Havoc Pump Shotgun is able to kill other players in just one hit.
As pointed out by Hypex, the shotgun is capable of dishing out a maximum of 250 damage in a single shot. That’s over double players’ base health of 100, and even with a full shield bar bumping that up to 200, the Havoc Pump Shotgun is more than capable of clearing that in one shot.
As the new weapon is a shotgun, players looking to one-shot other squads will need to get very close for a chance at the instant kill. Despite being limited by its range, the Havoc Pump Shotgun’s damage still makes it one of the battle royale’s strongest weapons for indoor and end-of-match shootouts.
The start of Chapter 4 Season 2 has brought a number of guns, vehicles and locations for Fortnite fans to dive into. The headlining feature is Mega City, which has been added to the southeast corner of the map along with a whole new biome.
Outside of the new locales, Chapter 4 Season 2 has also brought a new car and sports bike, the Kinetic Blade melee weapon, and Havoc Suppressed Assault Rifle.
There’s also a new Battle Pass for players to jump into, which features Attack On Titan‘s Eren Jaeger as an unlockable protagonist along with a number of all-new characters.
In other gaming news, Total War: Warhammer 3 has been made free to play on Steam this weekend.
