Let There Be Light


Somebody bought me a new toy and boy am I glad. After 2 headlamp failures I got a powercap. As you can see by the picture, it is adequately bright. I am glad to make it my new EDC flashlight.

Product Review - Survival Hatchet

http://www.majorsurplus.com/Survival-Hatchet-3-Pack-P14412.aspx

We ordered this and received it in a week.  It is a nice lightweight item that now has a fine place in our gear.  It's not a greatly constructed product, but its usefulness is obvious.  One thing to do as soon as you get it is epoxy the grip onto the steel.  Otherwise as soon as you use it the hatchet slides out of the grip.  You also will want to put a cover on the blade, as it doesn't come with one.  All-in-all not a bad deal (3 for $23 after shipping).
