Clever Girl™ Black Folding Knife with Deadbolt® Lock 2640

Serve. Protect. The Provoke® Zap morphing karambit knife draws on ancient design but it’s hiding a futuristic secret. The first knife ever to feature Kinematic® technology, it stays neatly tucked away in transit and comes to life when there’s trouble afoot. Now built with Grivory®—a strong, lightweight, engineered thermoplastic—it’s more lightweight, adept, and crafted to go anywhere.

Provoke® Zap Folding Knife with Kinematic® 4041G

Looks can be deceiving. A situation that calls for self defense is, by nature, unexpected. The smartest are those who think ahead. That’s where the James Williams Defense Pen II comes into play. Disguised as a sophisticated writing instrument, its defense end carries a powerful punch. This is subtlety at its finest.

Williams Defense Pen II Black Accessory TPENWP

Compact, Concealable and Ready for Action. Drawing on decades of martial arts experience and teaching combat tactics to the world's most elite soldiers and law enforcement, James Williams developed the HZ4–a close quarters battle knife made for the modern warrior. Paying tribute to the hira-zukuri–a classical Japanese straight sword–the HZ4 leverages the same powerful cutting power of longer HZ6 fixed blade, but now in a more compact and concealable form with a total blade length of 4.75”. The Japanese-style tanto blade is made from tough SK-5 carbon steel with a black coating for covert carry and is devastating when used for slashing and penetrating. The textured G10 handle provides excellent grip even in wet conditions and with gloved hands, while the versatile Kydex sheath can be carried discreetly thanks to a high-retention modular clip. An excellent choice for combat and self-defense, the HZ4 makes it easy to be a modern-day warrior.

To everyone else it’s a stylish writing instrument, but to you it’s more than that. Known for the Hissatsu™ and the Hisshou™, former Army officer and martial arts instructor, James Williams applied his design expertise to the Williams Defense Pen. It’s a welcome addition to your defensive edged tools.
