I know everything I am looking for is here, watch movies, watch series, education, games, exams, news, current events and many more.
I don’t sing enough praise of titanium as a material. It’s the strongest metal known to humankind, but at the same time, it’s also anti-corrosive, rust-resistant, and biocompatible (the body doesn’t reject it when used internally for implants/supports in surgery). It’s found in abundance on the moon, it self-heals (forms an oxidized layer if scratched),…
CIVIVI Brazen Flipper Somewhere around the year 900 CE, a Japanese swordsmith solved a very specific problem. Samurai warriors needed a short backup blade that could function in tight spaces where a katana was useless, something compact enough to wear through a sash and fast enough to deploy at grappling range. The result was the…
Tanto blades were originally developed for armor penetration, ground with a reinforced tip geometry that could punch through hardened surfaces where a conventional drop point would snap or deflect. That heritage tends to disappear when the profile gets shrunk to keychain scale, mostly because the execution rarely holds up at that size. The geometry promises…
When the CRKT Provoke first appeared, its morphing mechanism felt like a revelation. The design, which borrowed its kinematics from the way a jungle cat’s claws extend from its paws, was a jolt of fresh energy for an EDC world growing tired of endless flippers and predictable OTF switchblades. TiGo’s SyncraBlade now takes that…
In the culinary world, some of the most powerful flavors come from the most concentrated sources. Think of a single drop of truffle oil, a pinch of saffron, one or two anchovies, or the intense kick of a perfectly pulled shot of espresso. These are not about volume; they are about the pure, unadulterated essence…
I don’t think anyone apart from Bruce Lee actually made nunchucks appear ‘seriously dangerous’. A lot of the appeal of a pair of nunchucks lie in the theater, the fanfare, the performance… but operate them well and they’re hellishly deadly. The TiNova is somewhat like that. Its magnet-enabled fidget-to-open mechanism is about as enjoyable…
There are some EDC knives designed to be performers, there are some designed to look intimidating, there are also some designed to channel ‘gentlemanly minimalism’, but sometimes knifemakers make knives a certain way because they can. In certain times, looking stunning is enough of a design brief – and this particular number from SDOKEDC falls…
In creative knife making, when other designers prefer to stick to safe silhouettes, EDC knife-maker Princeton Wong is designing blades that look straight out of an anime. It’s no coincidence, then, that his new, made-in-Italy design of the Nucleus Frame Lock for CRKT is a mecha-inspired marvel that speaks to both craftsmanship and imagination. The…
Small, fun-loving, loyal, stubborn, playful – these are the characteristics attributed to the Corgi. Which only makes when you look at this knife from Vosteed, which also embodies the same characteristics. Dubbed the Corgi V, this tiny little flipper is all about getting the job done but also having some fun along the way. The…
Realistically, there isn’t much you can do that’s new with a knife. It still needs to have a blade, a handle, and if it’s a pocket-knife, it needs to have the blade retract into the handle for easy and safe carrying. That, fundamentally, doesn’t change. What designers and brands do, however, is build around that…
