I am researching my next knife article. The article will be about unconventional combat knives. I just finished and shipped out an article about Spyderco's Warrior which was designed by Guy Rafaeli who is an expert martial artist who lives in Israel. Rafaeli teaches knife fighting to the SF of the Israel Defense Forces. His rendition of the Warrior is made for only one thing….taking out bad guys nose to nose and toes to toes. Check out the Warrior on Spyderco’s web site. …

My article is "Tomahawks as Tactical Weapons". I explored the Vietnam Tomahawk issue with a former LRRP Ranger who was there from 1968 to 1969. I would like some feedback from this group about the subject of are tomahawks

A few more Thompsons over there, then (not surprisingliy). In Sweden we are 329 and there are 4 Linda Thompsons. Its not a very common name, the Swedish equivalant Thomasson is not that unusual, though. I got the name through marriage, my husbands family is English. My maiden name was the more Swedish "Larsson".

Thanks for the tip. Of course we are related, especially since Thompson is such a rare name. ;-)
