The DPx HEST/F Urban Rave Reviews are Rolling in

May 23, 2016

The DPx HEST/F Urban Kickstarter editions started shipping to their eager owners on May 18th and the rave reviews are pouring in. Below is some feedback we've received so far. Do you own the DPx HEST/F Urban? What do you think? Let us know!

For the last 6 months I have been waiting for this knife. As I was opening the box, all I was hoping for is that this knife would be close to the quality that my sebenza is. I can say this with ZERO reservation.... #sebenzakiller @dpxgear you guys knocked it out of the park. You have to make more, I need a few of these. Hands down the best folder i've ever owed. @robertvickphotography

Good Afternoon!

I just wanted to take a moment and let you know I received the knife, and its incredible!

Its obvious that a lot of time and effort went into its production, as the fit and finish is fantastic! I cant wait to see how the battleship grey titanium wears/breaks in with use.I have most of DPx's knives, but the Urban is my favorite You have truly outdone yourselves on this project, I am extremely happy to have been a part of it!

Regards,

The Urban is a beauty! I do love the action, smooth and quick! Thanks again for making a quality product!

Thanks again!

...love the results of the campaign. I have some of the larger HEST/F and one of the HEAT knives and a few of the Aculus knives (including a Blackwater). I have to say I think this is the perfect middle ground between the larger HEST and the HEAT for me. The bead blast finish has a wonderful texture.

Got mine today. What a great knife. Couldn't be happier. I'm torn between adding it to my collection or using it as an EDC, should have bought two.

Received mine this morning! I could not be more pleased in the quality and workmanship. Opens smooth as silk. Solid feel and built like a tank! The extras were very much appreciated. I really like the sheath. Smells good too. The wait was well worth it, because: the final product reeks with quality and beauty!!!

Thanks and congratulations to#dpxgear for delivering the best#madeinamerica #kickstarter campaign I've ever supported. This blade is top notch and boasts an incredible feature-set for its size. Small squabbles aside, the overall quality is excellent, and I greatly look forward to putting the #hestf #urban through its titanium scale - S30V steel - bottle cap torquing - glass breaking - screw-driving - and wire-stripping paces. @slicksd

CPM 154: The Blade Steel That Makes the Urban G10 Series So Unique

January 28, 2022

Some say it is because of the mirror like blade finish on the Milspec model, and some say it is the small size matched with the heavy duty utility it offers. Both of these attributes are spot on, but we think it is the blade steel: CPM 154. Lately, we have been getting a lot of questions on this blade, so we decided to break down why this off-the-radar steel is so unique.

Boot and neck knives are popular with those wanting an easily concealed weapon ready in a moment. They date pretty far back; from Civil War soldiers, to outdoorsmen, to gangsters. Whether you need something to make you feel safe walking downtown, or a last ditch defense against a bear attack, having the DPx HIT Dagger at the ready is a great idea.

We’ve enhanced the knife durability, simplified the design, retained the same hard use features, and still offer our famous Skull Tool,” says DPx Gear founder, Robert Young Pelton.

“A proven, heirloom quality knife, crafted by an award winning manufacturer, at a reasonable price with a lifetime warranty. It’s the perfect product for someone looking to get past gas station knives or low priced folders.”
