I'll opine from the rafters on ideal fighter features -
Has a grip that aids retention when your hands are wet from blood or perspiration. (leather or checkered micarta/wood)
Has a cross guard to prevent your hand slipping forward onto the blade.
Has a narrow width blade to allow...
Vintage Case XX, "Tested XX Razor Edge" etched on the blade. Find a NIB one from the 60's and you will be amazed at the factory edge they had back then.
More modern (for me) is the Spike non-serrated automatic from Benchmade. As I was opening one for the first time my wife said "Be careful...
Thanks for the feedback and coments guys!
I think I might make it a bit wider but keep the press mounting area within the dimensions of the Workmate for some elbow room.
I have not reloaded for 20+ years and am slowly getting back into it. I cannot dedicate the space for a fixed spot and want to be able to take it down when I finish. What are you comments on the setup below? What would you change or add? It seems like a straight up good idea.

Darn it, I was just gearing up to deliver my chainsaw hypothesis!
Is a bat being considered instead of a non-lethal alternative such as a chemical deterrent? I'd certainly grab a bat if that was the only thing at hand, but a bat sure puts me up close & in the kill zone if my assailant has...
PRM, to that point I was raised in the San Joaquin valley in CA. I can recall walking to a friend's house once with my loaded .22 where we both proceeded to walk another mile or so out into the fields to shoot. Along the way we did get stopped by a sheriff deputy who told us to be careful and...
I might want a mag-feed or stripper-fed weapon so I could keep the mag loaded but out of the rifle in case of break-in or vehicle theft. Otherwise, easy to put back into action where a tube-mag gun would not be. Maybe an SKS?
The rack picture reminds me of my buddy's Toyota Celica. He had a...
