SHOT Show 2012 News! Columbia River and SOG
Posted January 23, 2012 by Howard
Every January the Shooting Hunting Outdoor Trade show is held in Las Vegas. We bring back all the news so you’ll have an idea as to what’s ahead this year in the knife industry.
Columbia River: They are offering the Ripples in an aluminum handle with liners. The action is still fast. The m16 series will be available as steel handled frame locks. Kommer models include orange handle two shot folder and the Free Range line of low cost hunters. Also a “surf n’ Turf folder for fish or all around camping. Their new multitool has switchblade style screwdrivers wrenches and blade and more. Price will be 49. Folts minimalist with a wharnclifff blade. Heiho assisted model with smaller size. M2112 in desert tan. Leong Mah Eraser folder with a bolstered handle with g10 in tactical or satin at retail of 140 and 150. Plus a rescue m16 with orange handles and seatbelt cutter built into the flipper. There is also a key chain sharpener with a few tools designed by Tom Stokes.
SOG has some great new entries for 2012. Tool logic has a key knife with a lock back. They have a light, the transforma, which holds knife blade, scissors, fire starter, eyeglass screwdriver and works on one aaa battery. Also a pocket clip. SOG has a new multitool the power duo that will retail for about $80. Plus 2 flashlights with great led bulbs and great pricing. The name for the line is dark energy. They have several knives with built in lights. The fixed blade is called the blade light. The folder also has 6 led bulbs and has a nylon sheath. The Slim Jim is the thinnest assisted opener they can make. It has aus8 steel blades. It has a pocket clip, safety and 2 sizes for now. These are great folders and will be very easy to carry and will solve the issue many people have with pocket knives- that they are just too bulky to carry! Also a resue knife which is not assisted and will be available in black or bead blasted blade. The sogzilla will be available in a slip joint model with a 3.2 inch blade. Their tomahawk will be available in a polished version. They have great molded sheaths or nylon available and we will offer both.

Kershaw Compound-Combo Edge
Posted November 25, 2011 by kevin
Kershaw Compound-Combo Edge (KS1940ST)
Kershaw Knives, manufacturers of the super plain-edged Compound folding knife, have added a new combo edge version. Featuring Kershaw’s buttery-smooth, precise SpeedSafe® assisted opening mechanism (accessed by a built-in flipper), this knife opens with a very solid “click”, and is secured by a locking liner.
This Kershaw Compound sports a 3.5″ partially-serrated, heat-treated 8CR13MoV steel blade. Offering a removable clip for tip-up or tip-down carry, the Compound utilizes glass-reinforced nylon handles. The result is a very solid-feeling knife, yet it weighs just 3.8 oz.-and it costs just $25.95! Take a look at the combo edge Compound-and its plain-edged brother-at www.knifecenter.com!

SOG Mini Aegis Tanto
Posted November 4, 2011 by kevin
Another in the long line of quality products from SOG, we’re proud to offer the new Mini Aegis Tanto! This is a whole lot of knife for the price-there’s nothing “mini” about the features available!
Boasting SOG Assisted Technology™, all the Mini Aegis Tanto needs to open is a push on the thumb stud, and the opposing springs will do the rest. This knife also utilizes a built-in safety switch (red=ready to go!), a reversible pocket clip, and SOG’s Arc-Actuator to release the lock.
Manufactured from cryogenic heat-treated AUS8 steel for strength, sharpness, and edge retention, the 3″ tanto blade is partially serrated to meet whatever task you can throw at it! Take a look at www.knifecenter.com!

Zero Tolerance 0350 Composite Knives
Posted November 2, 2011 by kevin
Zero Tolerance 0350 Composite Knives
When we heard that Zero Tolerance was going to be offering their awesome 0350 in ZDP-189 steel, we were blown away. Then, they announced a composite version with an S30V spine and a ZDP-189 cutting edge, and blew us away again.
Offered in a satin finish, these gorgeous knives allow the user to clearly view the delineation between the two steels. ZDP-189 is one of the highest-performing stainless steels in the knife industry today, prized for its hardness and edge retention capabilities-and results in a WICKEDLY sharp knife (as my index finger discovered while writing this blog entry).
Designed by Ken Onion and manufactured in the USA, the composite 0350s offer the patented SpeedSafe® assisted opener, allowing smooth one-handed opening. These knives sport textured G-10 handles an adjustable quad-carry pocket clip. They’re available in both plain and partially-serrated edges. Individually numbered, these limited-edition knives are going fast, so pick one up (carefully!) at www.knifecenter.com!
Here’s the word from Zero Tolerance:

Kershaw RJ Series of Assisted Openers

Kershaw RJ Series of Assisted Openers
Amazing series of Speedsafe assisted openers designed by the great custom knifemaker RJ Martin. These work great and have a nicely streamlined handle. The blade shape is remarkable because it’s a tanto style but still has some belly on it which makes it more useful. You can see the series at www.knifecenter.com

Kershaw Tremor Assisted Very Cool Pocketknife!
Kershaw Knives releases another winning folding pocketknife. The Tremor you just felt was the sound of Kershaw’s competitors running back to the drawing board. Kershaw has been the leader in the development and evolution of assisted opening knives since the beginning. We have not seen much new from them in the last couple years in this category, but they have come roaring back with the Tremor. This large G10 linerlock with a blade kicker is made in China under the supervision of Kershaw’s parent company and features the original Ken Onion SpeedSafe technology.
