BECKER KNIVES by Kabar 
‘WORK FOR A LIVING’

Becker knives originated in 1985, the brainchild of avid outdoorsman Ethan Becker, who created Becker Knife & Tool Corp. 
Becker-designed DivTul and TacTul models were recipients of the ‘Most Innovative American Made Design Award’ 
by the USA knife industry in 1990. The current TacTool model is a combination of the award-winning models.
In keeping with Ethan’s ongoing quest to research and produce ideal outdoor knives we offer the best of Becker’s survival-style bladeware:

*The Becker Necker is the quintessential neck knife.  Updated with 1095 CroVan steel, a redesigned sheath, and marked with the new BK&T KA-BAR stamps, the Necker is the same quality performer it has always been...only better.  Black plastic injection molded glass-filled nylon sheath and 550 cord included. Also note that the revised sheath for the Necker was designed to work with the TDI Metal Belt Clip, #1480CLIP. This allows for easy on and off mounting to a belt, in a boot, or on a tactical vest.  Made in USA.

** The first Becker knife released under the KA-BAR product line, the BK11CSM is an updated version of the Becker Necker.
Made to the same dimensions as the original, the CSM Necker features a Carbon San Mai blade. Carbon San Mai has a carbon steel core of Hitachi White Steel 2 sandwiched between two layers of 410 stainless steel.

Becker Knives are manufactured in the USA in the Kabar Knives factory. 
With exception to BK11CSM, Becker blades are made from 1095 cro-van bladesteel

  RETURN OF GREGSTEEL TRADE BLADES
 
Gregsteel is the popular trademark used by Gregory Steel Products Pty Ltd of Melbourne, the famous Australian manufacturer of cutlery for more than 6 decades. Jim Gregory began the business in 1912 which petered out of existence in the mid 1970’s. During the 1950’s Gregory Steel Products was the largest manufacturer of cutlery products in the Southern Hemisphere. Prior to that they were Australia’s biggest producer of military bladeware (not including bayonets) for Australian and American defence forces serving in Asia and the Pacific Ocean in World war Two.

Often taken for granted was Gregory’s wide range of mass-produced, good quality kitchen knives and trade knives that were used more or less on a daily basis. Admittedly, not as aesthetically exciting as most military and recreational type knives, but nonetheless just as useful when you need the right tool for the right job. In fact, Gregory Steel also supplied thousands of kitchen and trade knives (also tableware) for the war effort bearing the D(broad arrow)D Australian Defence Force (ADF) mark.

The Gregsteel/Gregory Steel Products Trade Mark #711548 in the Register of Trade Marks was registered by Keith Spencer (Australasian Knife Collectors –AKC) since 26 June 1996 and has been applied previously to replications of Australian-made military type knives (Gregsteel Stiletto & Gregsteel Bowie hand-crafted by custom knifemaker Zane Darcy Shaw).

Preparing Gregsteel trade blades for re-entry into the Australian marketplace has been a tedious, long-term project. No factory in this country was either prepared to or capable of manufacturing the Gregsteel patterns to the level of quality demanded and at the price required to re-launch Gregory Steel Products. Because Gregsteel trade blades couldn’t be satisfactorily made in Australia, the next best option was to travel back along the lineage to England, Sheffield in particular. 

The high carbon bladesteel had to be right, so too the blade shapes, as well as handles securely hafted in the traditional way. 
J Adams Ltd was the obvious choice, a long established firm with an impeccable track record for the production of trade blades. Under the tradename of J Nowill, this firm already supplies AKC MAILORDER with trade-type Aussie Rabbiter’s Kits & Bushman’s Kits and Australian Bushknives; faithfully reproduced old practical patterns popularised in Australia – so why not a collaboration on Gregsteel trade blades!

  • Sheffield-made Trade Blades.
  • Overall length 26-cm. Blade length 15-cm.

    Special big knife design features:
  • The slightly oversize handles can (if required) be quickly & easily customized using a file & sandpaper to suit the user’s hand. Contour for comfort. 
  • Angled-down grips ensure the knife is always ‘live’; that is, the working part of the blade is ‘pitched’ forward ready to be activated. Blades with angled-down grips have more ‘follow-through’.


The Cutting Technique
The following technique will maximize cutting efficiency & minimize fatigue. 

1.  Firmly grip angled-down handle with forefinger & thumb and loosely grip with three remaining fingers.

2. Cock hand back at the wrist for forward, backward, upward & downward slashes.
 
 

3. And finally; 
In a relaxed fashion, sweep & direct the working part of the blade (about 12 to 14-cm back from the tip) to the point of focus. At the moment of impact un-cock the wrist & ‘snap’ the three fingers firmly around the handle. 

This almost effortless procedure ‘draws’ the blade & provides much impetus to the cutting impact – sometimes referred to as the ‘bite’ of the blade.

A word of warning.
Make sure that you (and others) are safe from the glancing blow of a mistimed cut. For example, if slashing downwards on your right hand side into hard deadwood, make sure that your right leg is well forward out of the way of a glancing blade. Before doing any cutting job ask yourself, “Is it safe?” 

Practice makes perfect
With practice this simple technique can be perfected and a blade swinging rhythm can be achieved - a kind of effortless cutting efficiency that can be sustained for long periods - just like the villagers and field workers of the Indonesian Archipelago.

Blade maintenance. Keep blades sharp and lightly oiled when not in use. Remember, the best way to sharpen a knife is never to allow it to get dull – keep it touched up by stone or steel.

Grohmann Knives Ltd of Pictou, Nova Scotia - Canada was founded in 1957 and the following year won the design award for the 'Canadian Outdoor Knife', better known as the D.H.Russell Belt Knife.  Deane H Russell, a hunter from Ottawa, created the original award winning design concept upon which most of the range is patterned.

2007: The Original Design's 50th Year !
Limited Edition Anniversary Collector's Knife 

Back in 1957 the first D.H. Russell Original Design belt knife was finally elevated from being made on a custom basis into the production stage.  As many collectors know and possess in their collection, the design became a registered trademark in 1958. Each blade of the Original Design was stamped with RD 1958 for the next 20 years.  Now 50 years later they are still being manufactured by the same family in the same town in the same traditional way.  As busy as things are, due to the great amount of loyal customers asking for an anniversary knife, the family is proud to finally introduce this beautiful variation of the original.

This anniversary version will be available for a limited time only. Even though Grohmann Knives are classified as production knives, there can be as few as two craftsmen creating your knife from start to finish in as many as 53 steps.  Beautifully figured exhibition grade Arizona Ironwood scales have been chosen for their rich colours and diversity. Handmade mosaic designer pins with various designs and styles take the place of the middle brass rivet.  The 50th Anniversary logo is electro-etched onto the blade and gold foiled on the high grade hand stitched leather sheath. Each anniversary knife is different and unique for you and comes in the classic black and gold foil gift box with the Grohmann Limited Lifetime Warranty. Your own piece of history.

Lynn Abrams World Of Straight Razor Shaving
 Cut throat razor enthusiast, Mr Lynn Abrams is a well known identity in the world’s razor scene. 
As a 30 year plus straight razor shaver (cut throat razors are known as ‘straight razors’ in the USA), and the founder of the original Web-based Razor Place ( an internet forum and support group for razor enthuisiasts), he has also honed over 7000 razors for people all over the world who lacked the skill and were unable to ‘hone their own’. 

But this DVD, with it's 3 ½ hours of instruction and demonstration, should solve that problem for you. Presented in eight sections, ‘chapters’ include honing, stropping, shaving demo, E-bay buying, introduction to mugs, soaps, and brushes, cleaning razors, soaps, mugs and brushes, buying a razor, and a look at some of Lynn’s own razor collection.

A remarkable DVD, and likely to become the most important shaving tool, after your razor of course!  $39.00 plus $8 post (3-day Express) across Australia.  (International quotes for  airmail provided.)

    GJK:  "Golang" - British Jungle Blade
    British military prototype. Similar in essence to the Parang that appears in the British SAS handbook, which is actually a hybrid of a South East Asian Golok (primarily a chopper) and a Parang (primarily a slasher) - so we call it a Golang.  It utilises the best of both worlds being able to chop as well as slash with equal efficiency. This is a serious wilderness big-blade!

    Manufactured exclusively by Samuel Staniforth Ltd - Sheffield under contract to Jordania

    JORDANIAN ARAB ARMY KNIFE: 
      for professional users and discriminating collectors

    Whilst the Jordanian Arab Army Knife is produced at the Smithfield Works of Samuel Staniforth Ltd at Sheffield in England, the unique knife concept clearly originates in the Middle East. Patterned after the style of a traditional Arabic Jambiya, its initial production was close-monitored by a Jordanian Sheikh to ensure that the knife’s specifications would fulfill its intended purpose. 

    Samuel Staniforth Ltd at Smithfield Works of Sheffield in England was selcted by the Jordanian's to manufacture this official jambaya.
    Samuel originated the cutlery manufacturing firm in 1864 in the city of Sheffield, which at that time was the world’s foremost steel and cutlery producing centre, backed up by a knife making history that stretched back to 1604. Staniforth’s current owner, Chris Hopkinson, knew exactly what was required and precisely how to do it. The product is perfectly practical and superbly presented. A faithful new generation production of the original ‘Arab Knife’ adapted for modern-day military usage.

    Of much significance is the inclusion on the handle of the Jordanian Royal Crest, which ordinarily only appears on those knives issued to soldiers of the Jordanian defence force. At the request of the AKC via Staniforths, the Jordanian Government, after a lot of consideration, eventually granted permission for the AKC to distribute a limited number of Arab Army Knives bearing the Royal Crests, mainly for the purpose of selling them to discerning knife collectors in this country.

    The crest represents King Abdullah II, the Head of State, who with the assistance of a Prime Minister rules and governs Jordan. It is worth reiterating the King’s words to the world after Jordan’s Hyatt Days Inn and Radisson hotels in the capital Amman were shattered by three al-Qaeda suicide bombers in November 2005. Heretics of Islam...terrorism is a sick and cross-border phenomenon. Therefore, eradicating it is the whole world’s responsibility.” 

    A Brief History:
    The emergence of the Jambiya in the Jordanian region is buried in the mists of history, however, the distinct design evolved into a symbol of the Arab kingdom hundreds of years ago. Located on the Jordan River nearby the Mediterranean Sea, the country of Jordan contains historic ruins of early civilization, including the ancient remains of the Greek and Roman city of Jarash, the Nabataean city of Petra and the crusader castles at Al Karak and Ajlun. 
    Although under Israeli control since 1967, Biblical places west of the Jordan River - Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Hebron and Jericho and the site where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found - are also located in Jordan. It is believed that mankind established one of the first settlements in the history of the world at Jericho in 8000BC – Jericho may even be the oldest city in the world.
    During the Bronze Age (3000-1100BC) four small states developed east of the Jordan River, one of them being Ammon, which is now the name of Jordan’s capital city. The Hebrew states of Judah and Israel developed on the west side (west bank) of the Jordan and the Philistines held the land along the Mediterranean Sea. Later, the Assyrians, Chaldeans, Egyptians and Persians would invade and control the region.
    Alexander the Great conquered most of Jordan in 332BC and after he died, Jordan was governed by two rulers calling themselves Ptolemies in the south and Seleucids in the north. In 63BC the Romans conquered Jordan and presided over the region during the introduction and spread of Christianity. The Arab conquest, Muslims from the Arabian Peninsular, captured Jordan in AD636, thus spreading the influence of Islam in the region. Jerusalem had become a city of religious significance for followers of both Christian and Islamic faiths.
    Christian crusaders from Europe conquered Jerusalem in 1099. Then, after further crusades, the Marmalukes of Egypt eventually drove the crusaders away and ruled Jordan until 1517, when the Ottoman Turks defeated them. The Ottomans ruled most of the Middle East for about 400 years, although few Turks settled in Jordan, which meant the Arab people maintained their language and customs.
    During World War One (1914-18) Saudi Arabia defeated the Turks in Jordan with more than a little help from a British Army intelligence officer stationed in the region; Thomas Lawrence – better known now as the famous ‘Lawrence of Arabia’. After the Great War the League of Nations placed Palestine (west bank of the Jordan River) and Jordan (east bank) under a British mandate. Jordan became an emirate (territory) under an emir (king) and the territory was called Transjordan, functioning under a form of independence.
    Unrest prevailed in the area between Arabs and Jews relating to perceived land entitlements based upon historic and religious backgrounds. In 1947 Britain asked the United Nations to help settle the conflict. In 1948 the British mandate expired and the Jews established the state of Israel on the land assigned to them under the United Nations plan. Fighting broke out between the Israelis and adjoining Arab states over disputed land ownership in 1949, which resulted in Israel doubling the size of its country. In 1950, Transjordan changed its name to Jordan. Disputes continued and in 1967 Israel defeated Jordan, Egypt and Syria in a six-day war and seized the west bank of Jordan and placed Jerusalem city under Israeli rule. Arab-Israeli unrest still exists in the region.
    One thing has remained unchanged throughout all this, the Jambiya knife, being both a ceremonial symbol synonymous with Arabs and a weapon of offence or defence should the need arise. Not surprisingly, a variant of the traditional Jambiya is utilised by the Jordanian Arab Army personnel and who better to have manufacture this combat-survival style knife than the Brits, Jordan’s old allies since the days of ‘Lawrence of Arabia’?

    DAGGERTS

    Who would have thought how far a fixed blade could come! The Daggerts are a well thought out complete package. The only thing left for you to decide is which size. The challenge was to create a new breed of extreme fixed blades... suitable for today’s modern military, capable night and day, wet or dry, and able to be carried in a variety of ways.   But you might ask, what could possibly be new in a fixed blade? The Daggert easily answers this question with contemporary solutions and have been tuned and tweaked for performance at every level.
    Features include an instinctual handle shape with bold diamond checkering scored with grip lines, signature washer construction with a molded Kraton rubber grip handle, a proven robust blade style with flat ground bevels, precision ground grooves, and serrated edge, as well as stainless steel sculpted crossguard and pommel (capable of being used as a field hammer).

    (Note: Daggers are 'prohibited weapons' in Victoria, ACT, NT, and SA. This means that residents of Victoria, ACT and NT should hold a relevant permit or exemption to legally own daggers in their state. Financial members of the AKC are covered in Victoria by the Club exemption for ownership of daggers.)

       L205L  WAVE

    The Leatherman Wave multi-tool is hands down our most popular model, made famous by its outside-accessible blades that can be deployed with just one hand. When we redesigned it in 2004, we gave the new Wave larger knives, stronger pliers, longer wire cutters, and all-locking blades. Perfect for any job, adventure, or everyday task, the Wave multi-tool is an international best-seller.

    Our best-selling multi-tool, now redesigned. Larger knifes, stronger pliers, longer wire cutters and all-locking blades make the new Wave an essential piece of equipment for outdoor enthusiasts and professionals. Manufactured from stainless steel, Wave incorporates a large bit driver - switch bits for a customised tool that meets all of your challenges for the day. Larger knifes with better thumbholes can be opened easily with one hand. And scissors strong enough to cut cloth, plastic and paper. Wave comes with a leather or nylon sheath.. Protected under Leatherman's 25-year warranty.

    All Leatherman products are manufactured from 100% high-grade stainless steel. (Exception: Screw bits for the tool adapter are made of tool steel.) But stainless steel is not rust proof; it is corrosion resistant. Depending on the mix of metal alloys, stainless steels may be highly corrosion resistant and relatively soft (like kitchen flatware), or they may be somewhat corrosion resistant and quite hard. Our products are fabricated from the latter type, so your tool components are strong and the knives retain a sharp cutting edge. Consequently, corrosion can occur in the absence of proper maintenance. Your Leatherman product should be cleaned, dried and re-oiled periodically to inhibit rust and corrosion. This is especially true if you use it in a damp or marine environment. After cleaning, re-oil pivoting areas with a light machine or penetrating type oil (such as WD-40). Buff stained surfaces with a polishing cloth or non-metallic abrasive (e.g., Scotchbrite pad or soft bristle brush).
