Links are very important to me. This is what the World Wide Web/Internet is supposed to be all about! LINKS! You can hyperlink and BOOM! You are off into another Universe of Information. That’s what this is all about Friends.

One company that I would like to support 100% is Maxpedition. Over the past few years my Wife and I have been carrying Maxpedition products on a daily basis. We have no complaints. Top quality materials and construction combine with innovative designs and the result is Maxpedition.
Once you carry Maxpedition gear for a while, you won't be able to go without it.
Please support them, you won't be disappointed. Click on the Maxpedition Logo and look at the awesome line of gear they offer.
Another company I support is Aeromedix. Aeromedix is a "One Stop Shop" for a lot of your survival gear needs - especially for Doug Ritter Gear - Pocket Survival Paks, Doug Ritter Benchmade Knives and so much more. I highly recommend them.
Click on the Aeromedix.Com logo below and check them out.
Friends
The following links are to close Friends and I support them and their efforts.
Some of the links may contain information I might not necessarily agree with, that is O.K. too. One thing is for sure, in these links you will find something interesting to read and study.
A little word about these two guys, James Keating and Kelly Worden. These were the guys that first gave the Keys to the Castle away. They are the ones, The Innovators, who supplied information that many kept secret from everyone. Going back to Fighting Knives and Full Contact Magazines, these were the guys you have to thank for the explosion of information and Conceptual Thought when it comes to Combative Arts in my opinion. If you have a Teacher who is stingy with the information now you can connect the dots yourself. Learn what you can from the footwork and everything else then have your eyes opened. Well over 50% (and possibly over 75%) of the knife information out there in video and seminar format can be directly traced back to these two guys.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery to some...but don’t water down your drink, go to the source - Datu Kelly S. Worden and Master at Arms James A. Keating.
The first link is to James Keating’s MAAJAK WORLD. Always an interesting read. Some things are incredibly strange, however, take a look all around you…the World IS strange! MAAJAK WORLD is a mirror of that which surrounds you. I check it almost every day for updates.
Click on the Blue Banner to go to MAAJAK WORLD.
Realfighting.com is a great online magazine. W.R.
Mann has a most interesting website and is beginning to provide the serious
student of all Combative Arts equally serious gear. Check it out.
Next comes Kelly Worden’s Natural Spirit International. Great material and some excellent articles on the site. Like Comtech, some of the best instructional material you can find.
You want to spice up some of your training? Need some food for thought? Want to have a look at an excellent East meets West attitude of Martial Arts? No dogma here folks, just what works from all over the planet. Alliance Martial Arts is an excellent resource and the articles are top notch. Pete Kautz and Company have done a splendid job. Click on the Alliance Banner and brace yourself.
Pete is connecting the dots in an entirely different manner than others and he is doing a fine job too. You will be impressed.
Dr. Brett Jacques has some awesome materials available. He is an Associate and good Friend of Datu Kelly Worden, that should tell you something. Please visit his site and check it out!
Phil Elmore's site contains editorials and other material. He is the publisher of The Martialist.
