<p>ll over the internet lurk computer generated websites that are as flaky as the adwords you sometimes see on websites that have absolutely nothing to do with the actual content on the page. It&#8217;s funny, it&#8217;s sad, but it&#8217;s also pretty easy to spot.</p>
<p>A week ago I was doing some reading on different ways of sharpening the different knives I have around my house and garage and I kept finding these horrible recommendations on purchasing HUGE and more often than not EXPENSIVE sharpening systems.</p>
<p>Why would I sharpen a $20 knife on a $100 sharpener? Does that make any sense?</p>
<p>Regardless, I typed in KNIFE SHARPENING TIPS and happened upon <a title="knifesharpeningtips.com" href="http://www.knifesharpeningtips.com/" target="_blank">KnifeSharpeningTips.com</a> &#8211; HOLY WOWSERS!</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know the dude, but I read his site quite a bit, and you should too!</p>

<p>I love Gerber&#8217;s packaging and blade strength, but for finger&#8217;s sake, buy three knives or BE FRICKIN CAREFUL! Every knife I&#8217;ve ever received or purchased has cut me a few times in the first few days, but imagine the potential for pain when showing off this puppy with each of its three different knives.</p>
<p>I like the idea, I just know myself a little better than to purchase something like this and not end up like Jerry Garcia.</p>

<p>Like I&#8217;ve previously said, TheAwesomer.com has dope schtuff and will occasionally put up a quick review of a DOPE ASS KNIFE!</p>
<p>They did it again today with KA-BAR&#8217;s Becker TacTool. About $140.00 USD and a little over 1lb. just imagine kicking serious tactical ass with this badboy. Not only that, but I could see myself repelling from a pirate ship&#8217;s sail with the hook blade if I needed to. RIGHT SLOTH?!</p>

<p>Here is their blade description:</p>
<p>&#8220;A design collaboration between Ethan Becker of BK&amp;T and John Benner of TDI, the Tac Tool smashes, bashes, prys, hammers and cuts. It is equally powerful at lifting stubborn hinge pins, prying open doors or windows, and hammering out glass as it is efficient at cutting 550 cord.</p>
<p><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px;"><strong>Made in the USA&#8221;</strong></span></p>
<p><strong>I plan on breaking a lot of crap before I die. This would help.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve seen other people rockin&#8217; microtech knives.</p>
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 310px"><img class=" " title="fixed blade microtech" src="http://nicnac.net/media/microtech_automatic_otf_front_open_knife_makora_2_custom_carbon_mirror.jpg" alt="Stunning Presentation. TASTES LIKE FREEDOM!" width="300" height="227" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Stunning Presentation. TASTE&#39;S LIKE FREEDOM!</p></div>
<p>I&#8217;ve attempted to purchase one on an ebay auction.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve never held one in my hands, but I&#8217;m now putting the images found on their websites into my internal memory bank for future fantasies.</p>
<p>Behold, microtech&#8217;s brand of custom knives: <a href="http://www.marfionecustomknives.com/creations.html" target="_blank">Marifone Custom Knives</a></p>
<p>I have never considered buying a fixed blade, but after staring at the A.D.O. (Alpha Detachment Operative) model for a few weeks, I am seriously a hair&#8217;s width away from making the change from steak knives to a rack of A.D.O.&#8217;s in my kitchen.</p>
<p>So I&#8217;ve entered into a new phase of my life: knifeporn! Knives shot with just the right lighting can be almost as attractive as a woman on a freshly waxed pickup holding a juicy burger containing a fried egg, applewood smoked bacon and a gift certificate to Gander Mountain!!</p>
<p>AAAAAAHHHHH!</p>
<p>What are the knives you like to look at the most? Let me know! I&#8217;d like to oogle with your favorites too!</p>
