BLITZ Mini Tactical Pocket Knife | Straight Edge Edition – Notable crowdfunding campaign

CROWDFUNDING NEWS – A knife is included in the EDC kit of many of us because knives seem to come in handy on a regular basis.  And the best knife to have is one that you actually have on hand, so sometimes, smaller is better. Have a look at Bomber and Company’s latest in the small folding knife category, their BLITZ Mini Tactical Pocket Knife | Straight Edge Edition.

What is it?

The Bomber and Company BLITZ Mini Tactical Pocket Knife | Straight Edge Edition is a pocket-sized, folding knife with a straight blade edge, tanto-point tip, and a tactical black look and feel.

Why do I like it?

Bomber and Company incorporated the feedback from three previously successful Kickstarter campaigns—1,000 surveys from 22,000 original backers and over 10,000 data points—into their latest knife design duo.  The first was their B-2 BLITZ, which had a serrated blade edge, and this latest version is virtually identical, but with a straight blade edge.  And like its previous near-twin, it looks way tough and aggressive.  Made of 440 Carbon Black Stainless Steel, it is highly durable and corrosion resistant and it looks aggressive and tough.  Although they kept it short enough to still fit into the small coin pocket in a pair of jeans, it is wide to help improve the user’s ability to grip it.  It also has a perforated, locking blade, an oversized thumb grip, and a lanyard hole.

Where can I find more info?

The Bomber and Company BLITZ Mini Tactical Pocket Knife | Straight Edge Edition campaign ends in just 6 days on April 11, 2019, and has already far surpassed its funding goal of $5,000. Pledge packages start at $50 for a single BLITZ Mini Tactial Pocket Knife and increase from there depending on the options selected.  After the end of the campaign period, rewards are expected to start shipping in June 2019.
