Review of: Honshu Small Covert Defense Push Dagger
- Paul Andersen
Excellent push knife
I bought two years ago. Loved them. Lost one. So, of course, I had to buy another. They are great and very handy if you need some protection. Buy one and you will not be disappointed.
Review of: Combat Commander Mini Black Push Dagger
- Robert Baize
perfect concealed carry weapon
I have worn my belt knife for years. It does not matter if in a suit or jeans it looks great. It is really nice to know I have something if things go bad. Many places you cannot carry but this is so well hidden that no one knows you have it. I have actually worn mine so much that I had to get a second belt.
