Zac Wingard of Wingard Wearables joins Bob "The Knife Junkie" DeMarco on Episode 371 of The Knife Junkie Podcast (https://theknifejunkie.com/371 (https://theknifejunkie.com/371)).Wingard Wearables creates EDC items out of weapons not thought of for everyday carry, like tomahawks, spears, war clubs and an implement called the "Quill." One thing that many current-day tomahawk makers get wrong (and that Wingard focuses on getting right) is weight. Unlike axes and hatchets, tomahawks are meant to be very light and nimble in the hand and easy to throw.Like the name implies, Wingard Wearable tomahawks, pikes and quills are intended to be worn close to the body and come with kydex sheaths for the sharp and pointy parts. Zac EDCs his Backripper Tomahawk, in-the-waistband, literally all the time. These tomahawks and other implements are not just weapons but also intended for utility use. The new Thumper is a wearable bludgeon designed around the Iroquois war club, made by Zac entirely in house.Each Wingard Wearable is made in America by skilled blacksmiths and bladesmiths and numerous small businesses across three states.Find Wingard Wearables online at https://www.wingardwearables.com (https://www.wingardwearables.com) and on Instagram (wingard_wearables) at https://www.instagram.com/wingard_wearables (https://www.instagram.com/wingard_wearables).Be sure to support The Knife Junkie and get in on the perks of being a Patron -- including early access to the podcast and exclusive bonus content. https://www.theknifejunkie.com/patreon (https://www.theknifejunkie.com/patreon)Let us know what you thought about this episode.
