The MTech MT-673 Fixed Blade Neck Knife has a 2-inch Stainless Steel stone wash finish blade, The handles are G10 styled with raised palm supports which provide extra comfort. It has full tang construction and a 5-inch overall length. It includes a kydex sheath with a break away landyard.
This little neck knife is really pretty cool. Many neck knives are too small for me, if I have to use two fingers and a thumb to use it then it’s not for me. This one you can get yout third finger on it so you have a little better control of the knife and I like that. the tanto-shaped blade works well and sharpens well. the Kydex sheath holds the knife very secure and sits well against your chest. Good design.
What I Would Change About This Product:
I really like this neck knife and there is nothing I would change. It’s a keeper!
Final Remarks:
The MTech MT-673 Fixed Blade Neck Knife is a good little knife for the price. Big enough to get a hold of when you need to use it. The knife is pretty light so you do not feel much around your neck. But one quick tug and the knife is ready for action. I recommend this neck knife highly for someone that wants a knife of this design.

Full, extended tang
Black Kydex sheath.
What I Like About This Product:
This is a great little knife for the money and it looks very cool. It has a very sharp blade and nice micarta handles. The sheath is nice and made out of Kydex. It has a belt loop that can be changed left or right-handed. Mine also had a length of paracord that could be used as a neck knife.
What I Would Change About This Product:
The knife and sheath is a great design, the only thing I dispute is the neck knife possibility. I feel it is too heavy to be a neck knife. If I use a knife around my neck, I like it to be light so you do not even feel it. This knife is kinda heavy for the neck. The other slight comment I will make is about the micarta handles, they look very nice but they were slightly uncomfortable in my hand. I am more nylon or G-10 style handle fan.
Final Remarks:
This is a great knife, sharp, good balance, feels ok in the hand, and has a great little sheath. Is it perfect – NO. But for the money, it’s an awesome little knife. I recommend it highly.

Product: MTech 2070T Titanium Tanto Fixed Blade Knife
Price: $33.22
Durability: High
Best Place To Buy This Product: Amazon.com
My Overall Rating: 9.0
Quick Product Overview:
The MTech Model # MT2070T is a fixed blade knife. It is a 10-inch overall, with a 5-inch gray titanium coated stainless tanto blade. This knife has a black grooved glass-filled nylon handle, a lanyard hole, and has full tang construction. Comes with a black nylon belt sheath.
Specifications Of This Product:
Model – MT2070T
Fixed Blade Titanium Tanto
10 inch overall
5-inch gray titanium coated stainless tanto blade
Black grooved glass filled nylon handle
Full tang
Extended tang
Lanyard hole
Black nylon belt sheath.
What I Like About This Product:
This knife was sharp right out of the box and with a little touch-up on my ceramic stone it was extremely sharp. It feels very good in my hand and I had no “hot spots” after some basic use. I am not into total punishment of a blade but it held a good edge after some good use.
What I Would Change About This Product:
The knife is a good knife for the price, and I cannot find much wrong with the design, but the sheath is another story. This sheath does everything it is supposed to do, it fits the knife, it protects the blade, and has a belt loop to secure it on your belt. But to be honest, I do not like nylon sheaths! As I have said in previous reviews, I like Kydex sheaths. I like my knife sheaths to fit like a glove, snap when it goes in, and holds it there without a snap enclosure. So this is one knife I will make my own Kydex sheath, in the design I like.
Final Remarks:
This knife is not the best on the market, but it is a good knife. It will probably go in my pickup or car as an all-around knife and that suits my purposes. I like knives! But I hate to pay a fortune for one and then lose it. This Tanto blade holds a good edge and feels good in your hand. And with the right kind of sheath, it will work great. So check this knife out, I highly recommend it

Schrade Full Tang SCHF16 Neck Knife Fixed Blade, Black 9Cr18MoV High Carbon Stainless Steel Notched Clip Point Tanto Blade, Grooved & Textured G-10 Handle Overlay Slabs, Lanyard Hole, and Thermoplastic Sheath with Lanyard, Four Grommet Holes, & Neck String
Specifications Of This Product:
Overall Length: 7.00″ Handle Length: 3.90″ Blade Length: 3.10″ Overall Weight: 4.60 oz Steel: 9Cr18MoV High Carbon Stainless Steel Handle Material: G-10 Full tang Lanyard hole Thermoplastic sheath
What I Like About This Product:
This knife was extremely sharp when I received it, no need to touch it up with my ceramic stone. It really felt good in my hand, no hot spots developed as I used it. Its just a pretty cool little knife.
What I Would Change About This Product:
This knife is advertised as a neck knife and it comes complete with a cord or breakaway chain in the box. My idea of a neck knife is something small that is light and does not get in the way. This knife is 4.6 ozs. which is a bit heavy for me. I would have liked it to also come with a belt loop for the option of carrying that way too. While the black finish looks cool, its not my first choice style of finish on my blades, give me satin finish any time.
Final Remarks:
I really like this knife, not as a neck knife but put it on your belt and its a great EDC fixed blade knife. I really like the tanto style blade which is made out of 9Cr18MoV high carbon stainless steel. It is not the best quality steel but would be easy to sharpen and will resist corrosion. I was a bit surprised that the thermoplastic sheath worked so well. It retained the knife quite well and has enough eyelets to fasten a belt loop on very easily or keep the neck loop in place if desired. When looking at this knife overall I highly recommend this as an EDC fixed blade.

Fantastic EDC knife, that will not break the bank.
Product: Old Timer Pro Hunter Knife
Price: $26.17
Durability: Very Good
Best Place To Buy This Product: Amazon.com
My Overall Rating: 9.0
Quick Product Overview:
Old Timer® Pro Hunter Full Tang Fixed Blade Knife, 7Cr17 High Carbon Stainless Steel Drop Point Blade, Desert Iron Wood Handle Slabs with Nickel Silver Bolsters, Lanyard Hole, Brown Leather Lanyard, and Brown Leather Belt Sheath.
Specifications Of This Product:
Overall Length: 8.00″
Handle Length: 4.40″
Blade Length: 3.60″
Overall Weight: 6.20 oz
Steel: 7Cr17MoV High Carbon Stainless Steel
Handle Material: Desert Iron Wood Handle Slabs with Nickel Silver Bolsters
What I Like About This Product:
Old Timer says it all! It reminds me of the type of fixed blade knives that I had when I was a kid. It has perfect balance, extremely attractive, very sharp out of the box and has a nice leather sheath for a very reasonable price. Its nothing fancy, its just a great little knife.
What I Would Change About This Product:
The knife itself is really a nice knife but it comes with a leather landyard and that is not my style. The minute I pulled it out of the box and saw the leather landyard, it had to go! I untied the leather thong and off it came. Some people my like them, I do not. You might as what I have against landyards on a knife? It’s just not my style.
The leather sheath is functional and will work, but I like Kydex sheaths for my fixed blade knives. I think they fit your knife better and do not sweat like leather knife sheaths do. I am trying to get setup so I can make my own Kydex knife sheaths, and when I do I will write an article about it.
Final Remarks:
As I said, this knife is nothing fancy, just a really good all around knife. My favorite thing about this knife is it has a nice satin finish on the blade and that gets me every time. Many people like the black finishes on their knife blades but not me. A satin finish makes the knife look much better to me. I guess you could say it really has a traditional style to it and that just makes the whole appeal of the knife come together.
This was one of the few knives that I did not have to touch up with my ceramic stone when I got it. It was outrageously sharp right out of the box and the hollow grind on the 7Cr17MoV High Carbon Stainless Steel blade will hold up under high moisture environments very well and keep a very nice edge.
The Desert Ironwoon handle scales have a great look to this knife and they really feel good in your hands. I got no hotspots when using this knife for an extended period of time.
This 8″ overall fixed blade knife is a real “keeper” in my book and I highly recommend this knife as a great EDC knife.

What I Like About This Product:
Since I look at knives and other gear strickly as an EDC item, my reviews may look different then others. I do not care about chopping or batoning or other bushcraft tasks. I just want an good sturdy knife that can hold an edge and take some standard punishment for everyday use. This little knife is extremely sturdy, with the blade being 3/16″ it sure will not bend at all. The knife feels very good in your hand although the texture on the handle is a bit too smooth for me. With a blade length of 3.55″ and an overall length of 7.75″, it is perfect for an EDC fixed blade knife. The sheath is pretty nice and keeps the knife very secure. Since I am left-handed, I like the fact that you can easily change this sheath to left-handed.
What I Would Change About This Product:
I really like this knife but there are a couple of things that I would do differently. The handle is very nice, it is a great color and fits the knife very well but I like a handle that has some texturing on it so I doctored it up a bit. As you can see by my picture, mine looks different then the original. I added some additional texturing to these grivory scales, lightly sanded them to remove any hot spots, and re-dyed them black. This gave me some additional grip on these handles without spending more money on new fancy scales. If you are one of those people that do not like the grivory scales, LMF Knives make some very nice micarta scales that would really accent this compact fixed blade knife nicely.
My knife out of the box was sharp but not quite sharp enough for me. I took some time with my ceramic stone and placed a better edge on this knife that was more to my liking.
Lastly is the sheath, it is a decent sheath, rather then many of the cheaper nylon designs that come with many Schrade knives. This sheath is easily changed from right to left-handed and that’s a good thing. My favorite would be having a Kydex sheath for this knife with a nice belt loop that is adjustable for left or right-handed users. I am experimenting with Kydex, if I am successful I may talk about that in a future post.
Final Remarks:
The SCHF55 has a heft and strength in it’s 3.55″ drop point blade produced from quarter-inch thick 1095 high carbon steel, the all black SCHF55 offers outdoor enthusiasts a knife eager to take on the rigors of the back country.
The powder coated fine edged blade resists corrosion and is razor sharp right out-of-the box. The knife is 7.75″ overall length, contributing to its versatility and ease of use. The 90 degree angle of the knife’s spine can be used as a striker against a ferro rod.
The handle offers a contoured design that fits with your hand’s natural shape. Jimping on the blade’s spine and underside adds traction while the finger choil offers increased blade control. Pass cordage through the lanyard hole to keep the SCHF55 close at hand.
Designed to see you through the unexpected, crafted from premium materials and built for a lifetime. I highly recommend this Schrade SCHF55 Mini Frontier Knife, it’s design is really cool and it’s quality is very good and should last a very long time. I usually link to Amazon.com but they are out of stock on this particilar knife so I linked to the Smokey Mountain Knife Works.

What I Like About This Product:
This multi-tool knife is made of very high quality materials. There are not too many items here but enough to get the jobs done.
What I Would Change About This Product:
While it seems like a good idea to have a toothpick and tweezers on this knife, those are some things I would have rather skipped. I would rather not use the same toothpick over and over again and I know the need for tweezers but they are so thinly-made that I do not feel they will be functional.
Final Remarks:
The Victorinox Camper is a nice multi-tool and should work for those that like that sort of knife. This type of tool is not my favorite type of gear, it is high quality and should work well for you.

Whether you prefer the versatility of the E2D Defender® Ultra or the straightforward simplicity of the E2D Defender® Tactical, SureFire has developed two superlative everyday-carry tactical lights that can take a beating or give one if necessary. Machined from aerospace aluminum, every Defender body incorporates a crenellated Strike Bezel® and scalloped tailcap that turn these robust illumination tools into formidable weapons, just the thing for when a thorny situation can’t be solved by photons alone. Its intense 1,000-lumen beam is precisely focused to deliver a crucial tactical advantage.
Specifications Of This Product:
Battery#: CR123 Lithium (2)
Dimensions: 5.6″ long x 1.125″ head diameter
Lamp Type: LED
Light Output: 1000 or 5 lumens
Weight w/batteries: 4.2 ounces
Run Time: 2.75 to 63 hours
Focus Type: Fixed
On/Off: Pushbutton, Tail-Cap
Material: Anodized aluminum
Warranty: Limited lifetime warranty through SureFire
What I Like About This Product:
This flashlight is extremely bright and the light beam is very intense, thus as a self-defense flashlight it works perfect. The brightness of this bulb will render a person momentarily blind when this light is shined directly into their eyes. The push button tail-cap switch works great and very easy to operate. I use this in combination with my firearm and it works very well. Is it an inexpensive flashlight, NO, but it is worth the money and will last a very long time.
What I Would Change About This Product:
The only thing to remember is these lithium batteries do not last a long time so you always need to have some of these batteries on hand. That means you must plan ahead and keep them ordered ahead of time.
Final Remarks:
The Surefire E2D Defender is an excellent self-defense flashlight and works extremely well. Is it a drawback needing lithium batteries, absolutety not! You just need to plan ahead and keep them on hand at home. While flashlight that use AA, AAA, etc. batteries are easier to get batteries, they do not usually have as bright of a light beam. I highly recommend this flashlight as your self-defense tactical light.

What I Like About This Product:
I can be a little rough on my phone some times and therefore I need to use a case that can protect my phone as much as possible. This BlackWeb Rugged Phone Case is just that, a rugged case for your phone. While it protects your phone very well, it’s outside demensions is not quite a big as the leading Otterbox case that I usually use.
What I Would Change About This Product:
This is a very good phone case and I do not have very much negative stuff to say about this case. If I had to say one thing it would be that this case does not have a cover for the earphone jack. My Otterbox case has one and I was used to having that on my case. Is that a deal breaker, absolutely not, but it was nice because it helped keep junk out of that hole.
Final Remarks:
As I have said, I used to have an Otterbox case for my iPhone 6 phone and had it for many years. This Otterbox case eventually cracked and was becoming very annoying. I tried to take advantage of Otterboxe’s guarantee but they would not do any of that during the COVID-19 timeframe and that is when I needed to get a replacement. This is what drove me to try a new case for my phone and I liked what I tried. This BlackWeb Rugged Phone case is a really good case, very safe and secure for your phone. I spent a lot less for this case then I did for my OtterBox and it does just as good of a job. I highly recommend this case, it is so worth the money!

I have a couple things I would change but I will discuss them in the next section.
What I Would Change About This Product:
I am not a big fan of the multi-functional card, while they may work for a few things, their use, in my opinion, is minimal. What I would add to this kit is a good multi-tool, I think that addition would help the overall functionality of this kit.
Final Remarks:
This is a very complete survival kit that has almost everything you might need for EDC. I could see how someone might buy this kit to get started, figure out what works for them and then move on.
