About The Back Door

The Back Door is where perfectly good knives with imperfect stories live.

This is where you’ll find discontinued models, cosmetic quirks, returns, prototypes, and one-off situations that don’t fit the main shop. Nothing here has a functional problem.

Every knife in The Back Door is fully disclosed, honestly described, and priced accordingly. Inventory is limited, unpredictable, and first come, first served.

You can always get lucky in The Back Door.

 


 

 

About the Dreadeye

The Dreadeye was a compact fixed blade from Tactile Knife Co., designed as a purpose-built, American-made utility blade with clean lines and practical ergonomics. While the design itself was well received, the grinding challenges associated with the blade ultimately made it unsustainable for continued production.

What remains is a knife that still delivers the same performance, materials, and USA-made quality Tactile Knife Co. is known for, just with visible grind inconsistencies that prevented it from meeting full production standards.

 


 

 

Key Details

Why You’ll Want It

Discontinued American-made knives rarely surface in quantity, especially directly from the maker. This is an opportunity to own a real piece of Tactile Knife Co. history at a reduced price, while still getting a fully functional fixed blade built in the United States.

Supporting knives made here supports continued domestic manufacturing. If you want a hard-use fixed blade with a real backstory and genuine scarcity, the Dreadeye belongs on your belt or in your collection.

Very durable and designed to last a long time
Number of Items: 2
I've had a pair of these lights for 7-8 years and would still be using them with no issues if a naughty racoon hadn't taken an interest in them and broken the glass on one of them. I was delighted to find that the identical looking ones (operate slightly differently) were still available. They are extremely simple to put together (just screw together the durable metal pieces) and turn them on to the chosen brightness. It couldn't be much simpler. I also have other Gama Sonic solar lights and they are every bit as good.

Gama Sonic Solar Lights: Built to Last and Guaranteed
Number of Items: 2
These lights are nice and bright and stay on all night. I have other Gama Sonic solar lights also. One of them, which I didn't buy from Amazon, had a problem so I contacted Gama Sonic directly because they have a 2-year warranty. They responded immediately and I got it fixed and now I'm happy with it. I will keep buying their solar lights because they make good quality solar lights and have a 2-year warranty.

Very strong construction--no plastic
Number of Items: 2
Expensive, but appears to be very well made. The lights are made of aluminum, so the support is sturdier than the usual plastic. The poles are in two parts, so you have a choice of heights the light is above the surface. Battery replacements are expensive, but you should get two years or more from a battery. You have a choice of a quite bright white light or a less bright yellow light.
