We Have a New Addition to Our Family


No, my husband and I did not have a kid. We have, however, added a new addition from the Gerber Applegate-Fairbairn family to our selection of knives. It is the Gerber Applegate-Fairbairn Covert FAST (pictured above).

Designed by Colonel Rex Applegate as a combat weapon originally, this knife family is internationally known as best-of-class among folding, tactical knives. The strength, durability and balance of this knife is hard to beat. Click here to check it out on our website.

Anyone purchasing this knife from us will get a free engraving as a gift from us. Just e-mail us to let us know what you want etched on the knife.

Hunting Joke of the Week

Hunting With Your Wife

A man was taking a friend on a tour of his home. In his den there was the stuffed head of a lion above his desk. His visitor asked, “When did you bag him?”

“I got that when I went hunting with my wife.” he replied.

“What is it stuffed with?” he queried.

His reply “My wife.”

History of Knives

Knives are on the the oldest and most useful tools. Evidence of knives has been discovered by archeologists who have studied the Stone Age, the Bronze Age and the Iron Age. Primitive knives were made from sharp stones and wood pieces.

Civilization advanced with the discovery of metal as did the knife. Knives with metal alloys and combined metals were produced, evolving into the stainless steel blade that is so common today.

There were knives made for men, knives for woman and knives to be used by both sexes. Many purposes were served. Knives were used as weapons, tools and eating utensils. As an eating utensil, they were used to pierce food then raise it to the mouth. I have seen this in old cowboy movies.

A knife was a symbol of bravery. Warriors decorated these proud possessions first with feathers and then embedded gold and silver design into the knives. Knives hold religious significance for some people, even today.
