Went to the “Shoe Factory” this week to teach some stuff and while there they hooked me up with some new toys just because.

Too bad the Shoe Factory hands out Glocks instead of Sigs 😁🙃

Nice haul, what caliber are the rifles?

I have a few pens like that, I think one has a standard flat screwdriver and bottle opener, another has a flashlight and the third has like a mini stun gun/cattle prod thing built into the cap. They all have a place in my carry rotation schedule (especially the bottle opener 🤣)

I had a pen like that confiscated by the TSA at the Palm Springs airport

They are actually designed for “punching” and the training course reflects that.

Have you gotten to train/play with the folder version of the knife?

I have not.
I have 3 of the fixed blades but not touched/seen the folder. It’s not really my “style” of dealing with things so I don’t carry them. But, they are good knives, none the less.

Hmmm. . .been a while since I trained on steel, but I too am kinda liking the folder.

Possibly set it up for carrying on the opposite side as the handguns. Like the guy says in the vid, the punching grip is kind of a dumbed-down knife technique for people not super trained up on edged weapons, but even if you are, it's probably a good option for use with your "dumber" hand.

The price point on their knives is pretty good 👍
