    Tactical gear is like all the fancy bells and whistles you can get on bikes:

    • A small number of things (e.g., lights) are extremely useful, and while there are better and worse ones, most out there will do the job fine
    • 90% of the gains you make in how well you use your equipment are not related to gear

    Plus, in whatever hypothetical shootout one thinks they might get into, 100 other things are going to determine your survival more than if you dropped $70 on a special belt that will hold your knife.

      I just like knives to flick and look at it. It’s not socially acceptable to pull out a gun and look at it in public obama-sad

        It’s not socially acceptable to pull out a gun and look at it in public

        Even if you walk into a bank, wave it in the air, and shout "Everyone be chill. This isn't a robbery and nobody has to die today" to make it very clear you have no ill-intent.

    The only info you need about knives is they are sharp and cut things, actually looking up in-depth info gets you exactly this and nothing else

    Thinking the empire or stormtroopers are cool or badass is either a gateway to fascist thought or a socially acceptable way to express it.
