WEKNIFE x Kyle Lamb RekkeR Flipper Knife

Wednesday, December 20th, 2023

The VTAC RekkeR Flipper was designed by SGM Kyle Lamb (USA, Ret) and is manufactured by WEKNIFE. The name was chosen by Lamb and is Old Norse for “Warrior.” Speaking of warriors, SOF Veteran and Viking Tactics founder Lamb should be no stranger to SSD readers. He spent 21 years in the Army with the last 15 at the tip of the spear before retiring from the Varsity league.

Offered in several finishes, I’ll concentrate today on the WE22010G-1 which features a Black Stonewashed 3.61″ CPM 20CV Reverse Tanto Blade and Black finish Titanium handle. It is a frame lock design with a flipper featuring jimping. Additionally, it has a lanyard hole and an additional pocket clip in case you want to switch sides.

Bawidamann x George Trench Knife/Sap Old World Charm Package

Wednesday, December 13th, 2023

Bawidamann has collaborated with Les George to offer a limited run of Doughboy Old World Charm packages consisting of:
ONE TRECNH KNIFE AND SCABBARD
ONE MK1 MOD2 SAP (STRAP INCLUDED) 

This is the Trench Knife that consistently sells out as soon as they are available. The S35-VN blade is from Les George with the knuck handle by Bawidamann. I own one and they are meticulously crafted. These are investment casted for that old world charm, complete with cast marks and all the beautiful imperfections.

Bawidamannn claims this is an heirloom piece and based on the looks my sons gave it when they saw it, I think I’m going to have a hard time holding on to it until I pass on.

This is completely made in the USA and comes with an inlaid Chattanooga Leather Works scabbard.

The inlay is either OD or one of the two M1942 Frogskin camo variants; you choose. Supply is limited.

DROP TIME: Today at 2PM EST

Black/OD packages are dropping today with M1942 Frogskin packages dropping later in the week.

Sneak Peek – Pohl Force Prepper S.E.R.E.

Friday, December 1st, 2023

With the Prepper One series, Pohl Force introduced a completely new knife concept for bushcrafters and outdoor enthusiasts in 2016: Compact in overall size, a blade length that complies with German weapons regulations (below 12 cm) and a hollow handle for storing survival utensils. After just a short time, Dietmar Pohl’s design became a real classic among outdoor fans.

In 2023, the Prepper One formed the basis for the further development of a completely new generation, which now focuses on the needs of crew members of civilian and, in particular, military aircraft. The term S.E.R.E. refers to the ability to survive, evade, resist and escape. The Prepper S.E.R.E. was developed with this application profile in mind.

Tekto – A5 SPRY Tanto OTF Knife

Tuesday, November 7th, 2023

One of Tekto’s OTF knives, the A5 SPRY, showed up at SSD headquarters. Having an appreciation for a good knife we gladly gave it a once-over.

The A5 SPRY features a 6061-T6 aluminum housing/handle (available in either black or od green), and a 3.5” S35VN steel blade, which was a tanto-style on the model we had on-hand. In addition to the tanto-style blade, the A5 SPRY can also be had with a dagger or drop point blade.

The A5 SPRY’s push-button action smoothly extracts and retracts the blade from the housing, with a positive tactile feel upon activation. The button features a contoured and textured surface; it takes a fair amount of force to push, so accidental activations are unlikely. Add in its 3.5 oz weight, closed length of 5”, and ambi pocket clip, and the A5 is a great edition to one’s EDC.

SOG Knives – BAR15T Tanto Bayonet

Friday, October 6th, 2023

There just aren’t a lot of bayonets on the market so when a new one pops up, I’ve got to mention it. Meet the BAR15T Tanto Bayonet from SOG Knives.

It features a 7-inch Tanto-shaped blade made from AUS-8 steel and G10 grip. It weighs 19.2 ounces and has an overall length of 12.2 inches. Fitted with an AR-compatible barrel ring it should fit rifles with Mil-Spec muzzle devices.

However, your rifle will also need a bayonet lug which is integral to the base of a Mil-Spec rifle’s Front Sight Post but isn’t generally found on those without the sight triangle. Your rifle will also require sufficient barrel space to accommodate the length of the bayonet handle, between the ring and attachment.

If you find yourself in this situation but just have to have that bayonet, you might check out the bayonet lug from Cogburn Arsenal. I’m sure there are a few other options out there as well.

Finally, it naturally comes with a sheath.
