It comes and leaves about before you can even really blink. I’d argue it’s the very definition of ‘here today, gone tomorrow’. I’ll stop beating around the bush and just say what I’m talking about here: Bubba gum handles. They’re the type of thing that we can’t ever keep on hand. An order might […]
Throughout the years, Case has done a lot with stag, be it traditional, Sambar, Prime, Red, Green, Blue; it seems like every variation under the sun has presented itself over the years. Bonestag has always been a kind of interesting outliner to the overall concept. With it being bone that’s shaped to look and carry […]
A question that has come up for me a few times now is in regard to the tanto style blade, the style of which you currently see most frequently in the Case product line in the Kinzua Bradford Flipper. The question I’ve had now my fair share is simply where the Tanto style originated […]

Some news hot off the press, Case revealed something new at the 2021 Blade Show, something that was being created for the very first time out of Bradford PA. The Flipper. A one-handed opener every day carry knife in a modern style. The Flippers go by the names the Marilla™ and the Kinzua™, and as both debuted […]

So, naturally, I did a little digging to see what I could find on their roots. Louis Chevrolet, the sun […]
Dating back to even before the 3rd centaury, Damascus has long been an object of desire, both in aesthetical and practical use. This style of blade has its claim to fame in Syria, near its namesake of the city of Damascus, where several origins have validity according to historians. Many say that’s where smiths forged […]
Now that we’ve made it through the fall and the winter months—and boy what a winter—there’s something we all need to do. Watch out for snakes. One in specific comes to mind this go-around: the Copperhead. The Copperhead’s always been a pretty big fan favorite, considering it’s a style that hits both aesthetic and practical […]
