DDR 18Xray NSN

June 15th, 2016

The 18Xray by Darrel Ralph Designs has been a very popular automatic opener. It also has an NSN of 1095-01-568-8897.

The 18Xray is made from 154-CM premium grade stainless steel. It has a blade length of 3-13/16 inches and an overall length of 8-7/8 inches with anodized 6160 aluminum slabs which incorporate a lanyard hole as well as pocket clip. It’s quite a robust knife which integrates Darrel’s SAS (Slide Auto Safety). Instead of a simple button that can actuate in your pocket, with the SAS you have to push the button forward and down to open the blade. It also offers a very positive lock.

Thulsa Doom Seal Of Approval

June 14th, 2016

After the Team Wendy affair we realized that many savvy consumers of tactical gear are looking for products from manufacturers who are ideologically pure. Answering this call, we’ve created a new standard, a symbol of excellence named the “Thulsa Doom Seal Of Approval.”

Standards to qualify are high. A manufacturer must show that they and their employees have never hosted or attended a political rally for a Democrat or donated time or money to a Democrat or liberal politician, or cause. Companies must also attest that they vote party ticket Republican in all political races (Donations or voting for RINOs may be approved on a case by case basis). They must also provide documentation that their suppliers meet all of the same standards.

Additionally, in order to affix this mark of distinction to their products a company must prove that they make all of their products in the USA using US materials and US labor. What’s more, they cannot use any materials, products or equipment in their business that is made overseas or by a company that supports Democrats or liberal/leftist causes.

It’s a tough standard to meet, but those that do will be able to affix the approval of Thulsa Doom with pride on their products.

‘Lethal Force’ by Tony Long

June 14th, 2016


Some of SSDs readers, and those in the trade, may remember Tony from his time with Edgar Brothers but may not know that having retired in 2008 after 33 years service with the London Met and 25 years with the Met’s Specialist Firearms team, in 2014 he was charged with the death of an armed suspect who together with two others were on route to rob and kill rival drug dealers. Tony faced a murder trial in 2015 and was rightly acquitted. He has written the book ‘Lethal Force‘ to put the record straight and explain the difficulties of being an armed officer within a police service and a society that is predominately unarmed. I can’t wait to read it.
