Hard On Gear
A knife and outdoor gear review channel from someone who truly uses (and abuses) their equipment. Through my own trial and error (and many idiotic mistakes) I've gained some insight around what equipment is worth investing in and what it can handle. If you want honest and pragmatic reviews of hard use knives and gear, then consider subscribing.
*Channel Resume:
-10+ years experience in forestry, wildfire, distressed wildlife calls, and variety of outdoor and labor tasks
-Former Forest Technician & Wildland Firefighter by trade
-Briefly in the Canadian Armed Forces until injured in training
-Martial artist, musician, fitness enthusiast, and knowledge-seeker by hobby
*H.O.G. Channel Objectives:
#1: To always put honesty and integrity FIRST; marketing second.
#2: To provide mostly practical discussions... while sometimes musing on hypothetical survival and self-defense scenarios.
#3: To continuously expand my knowledge and share what I learn—the good and the bad.
