Eddie Deluca - Knife Tester
Eddie DeLucaMostly we enjoy telling people to go poop in their hats. But occasionally we try to provide some halfway useful information - like how we know our knives are the best. Here's what we do. It's complicated, so pay attention.
We give our knives to a human wrecking-ball, the strongest, toughest sucker we know, and former World Arm Wrestling Champion: Eddie DeLuca. He tries to break them.
Eddie, who may be the strongest guy we have ever met, could not break our Prototype Zeus CQBT. We recently watched him throw one of our CQBT combat knives blade first into a concrete blacktop. While we cringed every time the blade hit, the result was nothing - not a scratch, chip, or anything. That's saying something for a guy with these qualifications:
