Killer Knife of the Week: Ontario Blackbird SK-5 Noir Survival Knife
The winner of this weeks "Killer Knife" goes to the venerable Ontario Blackbird SK-5 Noir Survival Knife. The Blackbird Noir is a no frills fixed blade designed for outdoor uses such as bushcrafting, camping and survival. It also can be classified as an EDC fixed blade. It has a full-tang blade made of 154CM stainless so it will perform with minimal maintenance in a variety of locations. The canvas Micarta scales provide excellent grip traction. The blade is not as thick as some but it measures in at .130" and it is flat ground so it slices a variety of materials with ease. Both the knife and the sheath are made in the USA by Ontario Knife Company and Hedgehog Leather. Check it out at OsoGrandeKnives.

TOPS Knives SXB "Skullcrusher's Xtreme Blade" Warrior Survival Knife
The TOPS Knives SXB “Skullcrusher’s Xtreme Blade” warrior survival knife delivers solid performance and is a beast of a knife.
Skullcrusher’s Xtreme Blade (SXB) was designed for the Warrior Survivalist to aid in their survival not only in the wild, but on the battlefield as well. Designer, EJ Snyder is an Xtreme Survivalist and Adventurer in real life and as seen on TV. He is also a highly decorated, 25-year Army Combat Vet who served in the 1991 Gulf War and Operation Iraqi Freedom. EJ knows what it takes to survive in a multitude of extreme situations from the wilderness to combat, and he has been tested and proven every time.EJ wanted to design a modern day blade that honors the spirit of the pioneers of the past but meets the demands of an ever evolving modern world, and a tactical survival tool that is as tough, durable, and dependable as he is; one that every warrior, survivalist, and outdoorsman couldn’t live without. The SXB is the Xtreme Tool for any Xtreme Job!
EJ's quest for such a knife started on the Serengeti Plains of Tanzania, Africa while conducting a 21 day Xtreme Survival challenge on "Naked and Afraid". The knife EJ took with him, being the only piece of equipment he had, did not perform well in the field and became non-functional. It is potentially disastrous to be out there and unable to rely on your knife. Upon his return to the U.S., EJ tested many knives, sought out the advice of many top custom knife makers he personally knew, and spent countless hours researching all aspects of the art of knife making. A lot of influences, needs, and rigorous tests went into the thought process and design behind the SXB Knife . His 2 year journey culminated with the creation of his vision by TOPS Knives.

Killer Knife of the Week: KA-BAR Big Brother Combat/Utility Knife
The latest Killer Knife of the Week is the next generation and evolution of the venerable Ka-Bar USMC Fighting/Utility Knife. Yes, we are talking about the KA-BAR Big Brother Fixed Blade Knife. The Big Brother is a significant step up from the standard sized KA-BAR, it is just as good a utility knife as the old Ka-Bar Fighting/Utility knife but it's a superb fighting/combat knife.
Our test model literally came hair shaving sharp right out of the box--Ka-Bar really knows how to put an edge on a blade. The massive 9.38" 1095 Cro-Van steel blade is well done and very tough. The blade has been differentially heat treated, a step in the tempering process that gives the blade more strength. It will easily withstand even the most difficult cutting tasks and will still take and hold an extremely sharp edge.
The noticeably wider blade improves the overall handling of knife as well as adding weight that is beneficial when using the knife around camp. The most noticeable addition-apart from the increased size is the addition of serrations along the spine of the blade. The spine serrations improve the fighting capabilities of the Big Brother knife... back-slashes are wicked, and the double-edge makes it more difficult for an opponent to defend against or disarm you. The Big Brother has enough unsharpened spine along the last third of the blade for batoning. These serrations (NOT saw teeth) allow the knife to have a continuous plain working edge and still have the serrations along the backside to cut through tough, fibrous materials.
The leather disk handle is comfortable (works good when your hands are sweaty, wet or bloody) and feels great in the hand. The balance is perfect for chopping and slicing and decent for point-work. The premium leather sheath is outstanding. It's rides well, looks good and feels great.
If you're looking for a Bowie-sized "utility and fighting knife" then you'd be wise to consider adding the Kabar Big Brother to your arsenal. Utility and fighting is what this knife was designed for, and designed quite well. Get one today at OsoGrandeKnives.com.

Killer Knife of the Week: Chris Reeve Pacific Combat Knife
The latest Killer Knife of the Week sets the standard for a multi-purpose tactical fixed blade knife. Yes, we're talking about the Chris Reeve Pacific Combat knife. The quality of this knife is superb as are all Chris Reeve knives. The Pacific Combat knife is a little larger than the Green Beret GBK 5.5 and a little smaller than the GBK 7.0. The 6" CPMS30V blade comes hair shaving sharp and is the perfect length knife for backpacking, hiking, general camp use. The CR Pacific is an excellent survival knife and serves double duty as a self-defense knife. The Pacific is light weight and perfectly balanced and the forward choil enables you to choke up for detail work. The sheath is awesome, it has room for a full-size multi-tool or a ferro rod, a small map compass, a sharpener as well as some other survival necessities. See it right here at OsoGrandeKnives.com
