Defense Saturday Night Blade Porn: More A-SOLs David Reeder July 18, 2015 Join the Conversation At RECOIL, we review every product fairly and without bias. Making a purchase through one of our links may earn us a small commission, and helps support independent gun reviews. Learn More Artificum Solis Custom Bladeworks has continued to forge ahead (see what we did there?) since our article about 'em last year. Artificum Solis is a disabled veteran owned, staunchly pro-LEO company headquartered near Ft. Benning, GA. They are still building Everyman and Clever Girl knives, but have added some new blades to the mix — like the Ole Forester. In fact, here's a picture of Ole Forester in an old forest (as described by A-SOL in Chief Austin McGlaun). All images from Artificum Solis Custom Bladeworks social media outlets. This is a V2 Dirty Girl, 1095 steel with a skeleton handle. This is their Damascus Hunter. They're forging more than fixed blades nowadays — they're building hammers and axes too. Here are a few more shots. Make sure you follow them on Facebook. They frequently run impromptu specials, host raffles and provide discount codes. You can do that at https://www.facebook.com/ArtificumSolis. They also have a Facebook group (the A-SOL Nation) here. I'll take this opportunity to give a nod to 3/187 Infantry, whence McGlaun hails.
