Designers at Udee have set out to create the “World’s most versatile backpack” loaded with 19 unique features. That’s quite a claim coming from an unknown bag maker.

The new SWR Radius from SilencerCo is a highly capable rail-mounted rangefinder that gives lightning-fast distance ranging information out to a mile.

The Chris Reeve Sebenza 21 is a production knife with a custom feel achieved through decades of refinement and passion. Sebenzas feature a titanium frame-lock design originally created by Chris Reeve back in 1987, fueling the mass of frame-lock folders you see today.

I was introduced to Brian Hoffner and his knives at SHOT 2016. He’s an extremely friendly guy with a great personality. Hoffner has an impressive 30+ year background training law enforcement agencies across the country specializing in weapons and tactics.
