Here comes the Cobber from Bestech, latest everyday carry-friendly folder from the company – and it comes to us courtesy of a brand new collaborator, Australian shop Happy as Larry. However happy Larry may or may not be, he’s not so because he owns an Australian knife shop; Happy as Larry is in fact that brainchild of designer Jake Diaz, who brings decades of general industrial design experience to the knife game. The Cobber is part of a batch of production designs that Diaz has rolling out, which also includes pieces made in conjunction with CJRB and Tuya Knives – but the Cobber’s the only and first from Bestech. It’s a Bestech piece, so you know color options abound The blade straddles the profile fence between a spear point and a leaf blade, with the general utility these proven shapes apparent here in full force. 3.37 inches for the blade length, which lands the Cobber unambiguously in the EDC category if you ask us, and the 14C28N stainless steel implemented in its construction earns good marks for the price in all three metallurgical metrics: edge retention, rust resistance, and toughness. Spiritually, G-10 is aligned with 14C28N in that it, too,…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! As NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell commissioner Roger Goodell called the names of prospects last week, lives were instantly changed in more ways than one.From a financial perspective, it’s a massive payday, especially for those first-rounders. And being smart with the millions of dollars that are guaranteed for those top prospects is preached all around the league.One of those players is Jeremiyah Love, the Arizona Cardinals’ No. 3 overall pick who will be the highest-paid running back in the NFL before he even takes a snap. He gets a fully guaranteed $53 million over four years with his draft slot, and the Cardinals can exercise a fifth-year option as well. It’s a common question for prospects to answer: what will be their first purchase after the draft? Love, though, had other things in mind, at least with his NFL game checks he’ll be getting.”I’m not spending any of my NFL checks,” Love said to BRGridiron. “All that money, my financial advisor’s going to take care of all of that. I don’t know about it, it ain’t my job. It’s going to be there making more and more money.”CARDINALS HAD TO DELAY DRAFTING JEREMIYAH…

Pete Hegseth, the Secretary of War in the United States, is set to testify before the Senate as the cost of the Iran War reaches $25 billion. Hegseth is the infamous Christian nationalist being accused of trying to force his religious views in the military. Christian Nationalist Pete Hegseth Pushes Religion In The Military The hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee on Thursday morning is meant to discuss the Pentagon’s staggering $1.5 trillion budget request for the upcoming fiscal year. Instead, it is expected to become a public back-and-forth on the war and the administration’s objectives, according to a report by Fox News.  Senator Roger Wicker, R-Miss., who chairs the committee, and Republicans on the panel are expected to push Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan “Raizin” Caine on turning that colossal budget request inward to rebuild military manufacturing stateside. Christian Nationalism On the Rise: Ruler Reposts Video Saying Women Should Not Be Allowed To Vote “Like the generations that came before us, we are now revitalizing manufacturing right here at home to rebuild the American arsenal,” Wicker said in a statement. “By reindustrializing and investing in new technology, we are creating jobs across our…

It’s not often we hear Stephen A. Smith weigh in on anything golf-related, and after hearing his reaction to the Saudis pulling their funding of LIV Golf, we should all be incredibly thankful for that.On Thursday, the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) officially announced that it would be cutting ties with LIV at the end of the 2026 season after investing billions into the breakaway circuit. Among the many questions to follow is what it means for the players who left the PGA Tour to join LIV, who will presumably be seeking to jump back on Tour.PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp has hinted that the path back for defectors will be far from straight and clear. While we are likely months away from knowing any firm details, Smith has an idea of what should be required of players in order for them to return to the Tour: absolutely nothing. INEVITABLE OUTCOME ARRIVES FOR LIV GOLF AS SAUDIS OFFICIALLY PULL PLUG ON FUNDINGSmith believes that the only figure to blame in this entire, ridiculous saga is the PGA Tour, therefore, it should welcome back players with wide-open arms.”If the PGA decides to punish these golfers, we should be all — excuse…

Effective immediately, sailors within the fleet — and those specifically stationed in the National Capital Region — are now granted greater flexibility when it comes to daily workwear, according to an April 26 NAVADMIN message.The update means that for sailors E-7 and above, the wear of the Service Dress Blues jacket or Eisenhower jacket in office buildings or workspaces is optional throughout the fleet.According to the memo, this update allows for the “walking within the confines of a building without the [Service Dress Blues] Jacket or Eisenhower jacket covering the white shirt and tie.”The black garrison cap is now authorized as an “acceptable substitute” for the combination cover to accompany either the SDB coat or the Eisenhower jacket. The memo notes that these changes to fleet dressing will allow individuals greater flexibility when working in an office setting while suited and booted in SDB dress. Additionally, effective May 4, in addition to SDBs, NWU Type III dress — and all of its 12 pockets — will be authorized for wear in the Pentagon. “This change is being made to ensure the Navy is aligned with the uniforms being worn in the Pentagon by other members of the Joint Force and…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! A Democratic Senate hopeful in Michigan reportedly deleted thousands of social media posts, including one disparaging the middle-American communities she is asking voters to elect her to represent.Mallory McMorrow, who indicates in her 2025 autobiography that she “relocated permanently” from the Los Angeles-area to Michigan in 2014, shared in the deleted posts about dreaming that the elite coasts would annex themselves from middle America. In the now-archived posts, McMorrow also mused about how she wished she “never left California” and said there were days since moving to Michigan “that make me miss California even more.”Meanwhile, McMorrow described herself in 2016, after she claimed to have relocated to Michigan, as a constituent of Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu, repeatedly referenced voting in California’s June 2016 Democratic Primary and urged other voters to do the same. McMorrow referenced voting in person in November 2014 in the Los Angeles area as well, even though in 2024 she chided someone on social media who said they voted in a state they no longer lived in.In total, McMorrow deleted roughly 6,000 social media posts, according to CNN’s K-File investigative unit, which reported that the posts appeared to have…

The United States Senate has failed to limit Donald Trump in his bid to attack Cuba. The US president has repeatedly hinted that regime change, using military force, is needed in the island nation. A Democratic-led effort to limit Trump’s authority to use military force against Cuba without congressional authorization has failed in the Senate. The Republican-majority Senate’s vote on the measure on Tuesday narrowly dismissed it as out of order in a 51-47 tally on the grounds that there are no active hostilities with Cuba. Yet. But Trump’s rhetoric has been quite hostile toward Cuba lately, and the country responded, saying it was “not afraid of war” with the US. Cuba Responds To Trump’s War Mongering: We Are “Not Afraid Of War” Cuba has been fighting the US’s fuel blockade. Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez condemned Washington’s “ferocious blockade” of fuel supplies, calling it a “brutal onslaught” on the country’s economic system. The situation briefly and mildly eased in late March, when a Russian tanker delivered 100,000 tons of crude after reportedly bypassing the US blockade on fuel supplies. Trump later said that Washington doesn’t “mind having somebody get a boat load” into the island, as “they need to survive.” Moscow has said it will…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Congress took a major step toward ending the record-breaking Department of Homeland Security shutdown on Thursday as the White House warned hundreds of thousands of federal employees were on the verge of missing paychecks amid the 75-day funding lapse.The House of Representatives unanimously approved a Senate-passed spending measure covering most of the department’s appropriations through September.The vote came after the DHS funding measure had stalled in the lower chamber for more than a month as House Speaker Mike Johnson declined to put the bill on the floor over objections to language he said defunded law enforcement. The speaker’s opposition reflected the views of many in his conference, who viewed the bill as a dead letter when the Senate passed it unanimously in March.Johnson changed course this week after the White House appeared to side with the Senate and urged swift passage of the upper chamber’s bill.  CHUCK SCHUMER INSISTS CALLING DHS FUNDING SHUTDOWN ‘POLITICAL’ POSTURING’ IS ‘NOT FAIR'”We’re not defying the White House,” Johnson told reporters Wednesday. “Everybody understands what we’re doing. We’re all one team.”In an internal memo sent to Hill offices and obtained by Fox News Digital, the White House…

For the first time, the U.S. Air Force is asking Congress to fund the purchase of Collaborative Combat Aircraft, marking the beginning of the “loyal wingman” era.The service’s fiscal 2027 budget request includes $996.5 million in procurement funding to begin production of Increment 1 Collaborative Combat Aircraft, plus $150 million in advance procurement for FY28.Combined with roughly $1.37 billion in continued research and development, up from $827 million in FY26, the total program request reaches roughly $2.37 billion, according to Pentagon comptroller documents released April 3.The CCA procurement line stands out as the single largest new addition to the Air Force’s $30.64 billion aircraft procurement account, the clearest sign yet that the program is moving from the test range into the operational fleet.Unlike traditional remotely piloted drones such as the MQ-9 Reaper, Collaborative Combat Aircraft are jet-powered, semi-autonomous systems designed to operate alongside crewed fighters such as the F-35, F-22 and future F-47. The pilot in the manned jet serves as mission commander, while the CCAs, the “loyal wingmen,” use onboard autonomy for navigation, maneuvering, sensor fusion and weapons employment.Increment 1 CCA will focus primarily on air-to-air and strike missions, with electronic warfare and ISR variants planned for later increments.…
