MoreDesigner Paul Munko’s latest production collab is coming out courtesy of Kizer. Called the Melody, it is a modern slipjoint with a fluid profile and uncommon blade shape. Munko is an established knife designer now, but his own roots can be traced (hah) back to the world of graphic design. Each Munko release benefits from characterful visual quirks that give his pieces a unique identity. A good example can be found right here on the Melody’s blade. While it is technically a drop point, it has been compound-ground, with a thinner grind on the majority of edge but a thicker, tougher flat grind for the tip and belly. And while the non-locking, 2.84-inch blade shouldn’t ever be used as a pry bar, it does help keep the tip healthy even when piercing is necessary. The two Melodies available And yes, this is a slipjoint design, with a full backspring setup just like the classics of yore. It’s in keeping with the overall retro feel of the Melody – retro in the sense of old guitars, or classic cars, rather than actually historical slipjoints, as the design here is obviously a far cry from those venerable patterns. The key materials here…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The Indianapolis Colts’ biggest injury from their first preseason game might not have been to a player, but rather to a coach.Colts special teams coordinator Brian Mason was taken out on the final play of scrimmage in the team’s 13-13 tie with the New England Patriots on Thursday night at Gillette Stadium.Mason, 39, unsuccessfully tried to avoid the Patriots and Colts players who were barreling toward the sideline. He appeared to get hit down low and was then writhing on the ground in pain. “He got rolled up right on the sideline that last play,” Colts head coach Shane Steichen said postgame. “So we’ll see. He’s getting evaluated for his knee right now.”Mason is entering his fourth season as the team’s special teams coordinator. Last season, his unit was strong, as the Colts ranked second in the NFL in kickoff return average (28.8) and had the lowest opponent punt return average (6.3).ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH.

KYIV, Ukraine — Though U.S. President Donald Trump promised Kyiv a license to build Patriot missile interceptors last month, Lockheed Martin and Raytheon have begun putting the brakes on a joint-production deal as executives weigh what is “feasible” and the licensing runs into Washington’s red tape.American officials are backpedaling too. Trump on July 20 told the Financial Times that the U.S. has to be “a little bit careful of who we license to.” Despite that, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Saturday posted on X that the two sides have “now reached an agreement.”The glacial progress may reflect American defense giants’ fear that Kyiv could become a defense industry competitor — rather than posing risk to technology or intellectual property — a Republican official on Capitol Hill told The Atlantic.“Their real worry is that the Ukrainians will find a way to improve the Patriot and then produce them at scale faster and for much less money than what the existing production lines in the U.S. could do,” the official said, adding that the companies will publicly frame their concerns around “IP theft and tech transfer” instead. Ukraine’s weapons industry, honed by nearly five years of Russia’s full-scale invasion, has been booming…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Elephants are widely adored by many people today — but a recent study suggests early humans were butchering them for survival nearly 2 million years ago.A group of international researchers found what they describe as “the earliest direct evidence of proboscidean butchery,” including a newly identified elephant butchery site, according to an article published in the spring in the journal eLife.Modern elephants are the only living proboscideans today — a group that once included woolly mammoths and mastodons. The animal bones belonged to Elephas recki, an extinct elephant species.ANCIENT HUMANS WERE HUNTING AND EATING SHARKS 7,000 YEARS AGO, BURIAL SITE DISCOVERY SHOWSThe research centers on Olduvai Gorge, a site in northern Tanzania’s Serengeti Plains known for major discoveries of early human fossils and tools.At the site, excavators found stone tools alongside bones of ancient elephants — and the recent paper, written by archaeologists and paleoanthropologists, suggests the remains were likely deliberately butchered by early human ancestors. The bones date back some 1.8 million years, during the early Pleistocene epoch.Though researchers have observed evidence of humans hunting large megafauna in later periods, the discovery suggests that early humans processed elephant carcasses more systematically.”The…
White House deputy national security adviser Andy Baker will leave the Trump administration in the coming weeks, marking the latest change to a national security team that has undergone a shake-up in recent months.National security officials in Washington widely view Baker, who also served as a national security adviser to Vice President JD Vance, as a low-key but influential figure inside the White House.A former State Department official, academic and Vance adviser when the vice president was in the Senate, Baker had historically advocated for a more restrained American foreign policy that questioned the wisdom of long-term foreign conflicts.He was also among the figures who helped craft Vance’s speech to the Munich Security Conference last year, during which the vice president warned European leaders that alleged censorship and democratic backsliding posed risks as severe to the continent as external threats, like those posed by China and Russia.“I’m proud of everything we’ve achieved and, of course, am incredibly grateful to the President, Vice President and Secretary Rubio,” Baker wrote in a statement provided to Reuters. “I’ll never be far away.”In separate statements, Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised the outgoing deputy national security adviser, whose departure was first reported…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The alleged leader of a violent Mexican criminal cell has been arrested in connection with the assassination of a mayor, while authorities say the case also produced new evidence linking his organization to the livestreamed killing of a 23-year-old influencer.Ramón Ángel Álvarez Ayala, also known as “El R-1,” was taken into custody during a joint military and law enforcement operation, officials said.Mexican authorities identified him as the leader of Los Rs, a criminal cell linked to the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, or CJNG.Officials allege Álvarez Ayala ordered and financed the November 2025 assassination of Uruapan Mayor Carlos Manzo.

As focus shifts to the Western Hemisphere, the U.S. Army has approved service-wide wear of the Jungle Tab upon a soldier’s completion of the Jungle Operations Training Course, an Army spokesperson confirmed Monday. The skill tab will join the likes of the Sapper Tab, Ranger Tab and Special Forces Tab as “an official skill tab,” spokesperson Christopher Surridge said, adding that the Army is in the midst of codifying official policy and procedures for the tab’s wear and approval in the upcoming iterations of the service’s regulations. “We will officially publish and distribute formal implementation guidance to all commands upon publishing these regulations,” he said. The update was first reported by Task & Purpose after a related memorandum circulated on social media. Last week, U.S. Army Pacific Command on X said the Army had approved the tab and asked followers to tag or submit photos of themselves wearing it. The move builds on an effort to revive jungle warfare expertise and experience, as the Army earlier this year tapped the newly-redesignated Army Security Cooperation Group-South to oversee the Combined Jungle Operations Training Center in Panama.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Eating less protein, not cutting calories, may be an easier path to a longer, healthier life for sedentary adults, according to a new scientific review.While previous research has long tied calorie restriction to improved lifespan and lower rates of age-related disease, studies have found that many people have difficulty maintaining strict low-calorie diets.A review of more than 350 studies published in the journal Cell Press Blue suggests that targeted protein restriction can deliver similar metabolic benefits without the need to cut calories.LEADING ONCOLOGIST REVEALS 6 HABITS THAT COULD PROMOTE LONGEVITY AND REDUCE YOUR RISK OF CHRONIC ILLNESSAcross the reviewed studies, lower protein intake was associated with better metabolism, altered nutrient signaling, reduced cellular damage and improved cellular maintenance, according to the published review. Much of the benefit stems from a metabolic hormone known as fibroblast growth factor 21, or FGF21. Restricting protein triggers a surge in FGF21, which animal studies have shown can boost energy expenditure, reduce inflammation, improve blood sugar control and extend lifespan.Researchers highlighted three essential amino acids that are building blocks of protein — methionine, isoleucine and valine. Under certain conditions, they may contribute to biological pathways associated with…
Seventy-six members of the U.S. Coast Guard died by suicide between 2014 and 2024, with 14 — or nearly a fifth — occurring in 2024, the most recent data available.In the decade from 2014 to 2024, the number of suicides among active personnel and activated reservists ebbed and rose each year, with the lowest number of deaths, 3, occurring in both 2018 and 2021, and the highest — 12 and 14 — in 2022 and 2024, according to data released July 16 at the request of Military Times.The 2024 increase occurred at a time when the service experienced a slight decline in its number of active-duty personnel, the result of recruiting challenges. That year, the Coast Guard had roughly 39,000 active-duty members, according to the Government Accountability Office, compared with roughly 43,000 members in 2014.The Defense Department issues a report each year on suicides in the armed forces, examining rates of suicide for each service, demographics and trends to provide information for its suicide prevention policies and strategies.The Coast Guard is not included in that report because it is a part of the Department of Homeland Security.According to a Pentagon report released earlier this year, 471 service members took their…

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday establishing a formal commission to address decades-old, persistent problems facing military spouses and families.“It’s an order that’s long overdue,” Trump said during a signing ceremony at the White House, flanked by more than a dozen military spouses who will be part of the new commission. The President’s Military Spouse Commission will make suggestions for improving quality of life in the areas of spouse employment, housing, education, childcare, healthcare, deployment-related support “and just about everything else you can think of,” Trump said.He noted the strains of separation from loved ones deployed overseas and the frequency of permanent change of station moves.These are “generational issues that are long overdue to address,” said Jennifer Hegseth, wife of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and chairman of the commission, which will include more than 20 members. For more than a decade, military spouses have struggled with unemployment rates above 20%, in addition to various problems with housing, lack of affordable childcare and persistent issues with access to health care.The commission’s duties will include connecting with military spouses to determine common areas of concern, according to the executive order.

I don’t want to get harassed. I don’t want to get yelled and screamed at. I don’t want to get booed off the stage, irrespective of what I’m saying. And I believe that if I go, that is what will happen because it’s been happening to me.”Nessel, the first Jewish person to be elected Michigan’s attorney general, claimed that party leadership has neglected her concerns over the rise of antisemitism within the Democratic Party despite reporting that she was harassed by some members.Michigan Democratic Jewish Caucus chair Jessica Alexander told Fox News Digital that she respected Nessel’s decision and, though she does not believe that the Democratic Party itself is antisemitic, acknowledged a rise in “anti-Jewish” attitudes among dissenters.
