Colorful Standard Ferro Rods

by Brendon Brigham on Dec 21, 2024
SlicKnives has created our line of standard ferro rods to offer everything our customers might need from a simple replacement without a shock cord for those that would like to continue using the shock cord originally provided with their knife, to brightly colored cord options for higher daytime visibility, and to include reflective cord choices to make it a bit easier to find the ferro rod using a flashlight after dark.

Simply the SlicKest Camp Knife Around

by Brendon Brigham on Dec 18, 2024
As I shared in an earlier post, I’ve always been a fan of Horace Kephart’s sheath knife – it’s simply a wonderful blade profile that performs many tasks well.  While the original versions and many of today’s replicas use high carbon steel, I wanted to create a version in from a more corrosion-resistant steel to help keep maintenance at a minimum.

Do you dangle?

by Brendon Brigham on Dec 16, 2024
I’m personally fond of using SlicKnives’ large belt sheath dangler during cooler weather to help position my knife lower than my warm layers.  It drops the sheath about 5” lower than the belt and comes in handy when I need to access my blade quickly while all bundled up.  I also appreciate that it’s made from the same matching leather as my knife sheath.

Effective Large Fixed Blade Lanyards

by Brendon Brigham on Dec 13, 2024
Lanyards can be as complex as you want to make them – I prefer simple, effective solutions in everything that I do.  I’ve found that the use of a lanyard over the backside of my hand and around my thumb generally positions the knife to fall back into the palm of my hand if it slips out, affording me with a quick re-grip of the handle.

Hunting Memories

by Brendon Brigham on Dec 09, 2024
I’m completely spoiled by living in Colorado.  Our vast public land provides amazing big game hunting opportunities and I’ve been fortunate enough to get out in the high-country in pursuit of deer and elk over the last couple of decades.

It’s so tempting, isn’t it!?  You need to pry something or tighten a screw and all you have on you is your pocketknife – don’t do it, you’ll regret it!  Snap…  There went your knife tip; ugh!

Simple Sweeping Hollow Ground Blade

by Brendon Brigham on Dec 04, 2024
Years ago, I was fishing with a friend that was wise in the ways of historical blades and his preference to clean trout was to use a simple straight back blade with a long sweeping curved edge for precise, smooth cuts.  He taught me that his heavily-patinaed unmarked carbon steel blade with a simple wood handle was called a classic roach belly profile and was a design that’s been around for a long time dating all the way back to the colonial period.

An Amazing Find

I bumped into Horace Kephart’s The Book of Camping and Woodcraft years ago as I was learning about bushcraft and was instantly mesmerized by how it transported me back to the late 1800’s and early 1900’s; his writing still echoes in today’s world.

Thanks for swinging by – I appreciate it!  I’d like to take a quick moment to introduce myself and to share a bit about why I founded SlicKnives. After a couple of decades supporting my customers in the data and advertising/marketing realms, it was time for a personal change and new focus heading into May of 2024.  The time to leverage my years of business experience and knowledge obtained from working with numerous entrepreneurs through the years had arrived.  It was time to set up my own business, but what kind of business…
