Today I had a lunch with David from LifeView Outdoors. They are a newer company that is offering some great deals on outdoor gear of all types. They are located in Nashville and have recently started carrying some tactical knives from brands like SOG and Benchmade to name a few. David told me that business has been good lately, which makes us all feel a little better in the current situation we face, and that one item they can’t keep in...
