This Bug Out Bag especiale from Colt includes 5 of the company's S.P.E.A.R. Tactical Arrowheads. Each piece is black coated 8Cr13MoV stainless steel and includes a double punch of lanyard / lashing holes. Arrowheads include...

If they're holding your feet to the fire to light the kindling and make the logs crackle, hold your face to the fire--at a safe, 20" distance--to get it done. Epiphany Outdoor Gear's V3-Pocket Bellows is a modern take...

A little snip, a little strip, a little screw. No, I'm not here to discuss the benefits of vasectomies today, but the attributes of Coleman's 12-in-1 Camp Scissors. The pair of stainless steel blades snip through fishing...

Hiding Christmas presents in the old shed in your mama's back yard is a terrific idea. Until the old swollen-up door and its pile-of-crap-on-a-park-bench handle lock get stuck and you cannot access the gifts for giving...

That's some mighty fine firewood you've chopped there, ma'am, but I must axe you a question: how do you plan to light it? A fire starter built into the handle? You bet I'd like to take a look. How kindling of you to axtend...

Say hello to my Lil Friend. Literally. At just 3.375" long, Boker's Magnum Lil Friend micro fixed blade isn't just small enough to slide into your pocket, it's small enough to slide into the wallet you slide into your...

I'm choppin' some wood, splittin' some kindlin', buildin' a fire...naw. I'm really just sitting at my keyboard eating some turkey & gravy potato chips. Yeah, I couldn't believe they were real when I saw the bag either...

I know. If you're not military, law enforcement, or a first responder you can't have a TEC Torch handheld breaching saber tool, but, dude, you can still want it. TEC Torch uses thermal magic, specifically a concoction...

Pick up Nemo's Special Ops salt-water-resistant, concealed-carry drill, load it up with a 31/64 bit, and drive that sucker right through your heart. Because if the fact that this weapon of mass construction is currently...

More than a watch and more accessible than your phone, the Dakota Knife Clip is a multi-tool growing out of a carabiner providing latchable, fast contact with a clock, knife, scissors, LED microlight, and compass. The...

When using a knife it's usually helpful to be able to see what you're doing. And since it's not always easy or practical to bring your knife to the light, SOG Specialty Knives and Tools has decided to bring the light...

While men tend to crave something that will blow all year long, come fall and winter that longing becomes particularly poignant. Leaves and snow, raking and shoveling, they're hard work begging to be turned into easy...

Sure you can light your path just as bright, for just as long, and hands-free with an LED headlamp, but...maybe you don't like wearing bulbous lights on your head. Maybe you like your illuminating glow emanating from...

Whether a manly gift from someone else or one you give to yourself, getting a Gorilla Cart is bittersweet. Sure, the heavy-duty hauler and dumper means moving and unloading yard waste, firewood, and 50-pound bags of Ice...

You might be slated to carve the turkey this year, but have you signed up to hunt, shoot, field dress, and butcher it too? Browning says its DIY Butcher Kit comes with a blade "for every cutting chore imaginable." Hunters...

I may not have designed it, or forged it, or carved it myself, but I sure as Shine-Ola used my own two hands to emboss my pocket knife with this two-headed grizzly bear. Yessir, I sure did want it to have two heads. It's...

Luminoodle is a light rope. And a lantern. And maybe something you'll soon see the hula hooping hippies and rave girls incorporate into their acts at shows. This 5' strand of USB-powered LEDs shines 10 to 20 times brighter...

In his 20s, Jason Brous found that he really liked 3 things: Biomech art; knifemaking; and sex. (Note: #3 is just speculation on my part, but with Brous being a dude and all, I'm 99% sure I'm correct.) And the Brous Blades...

I've learned to tie knots hundreds of times. Usually it's the same knot, the one they use to tie fenders on boats, which my friend Anthony shows me every time I go on his, and which I use once and then immediately forget...

Cars, bikes, and even PC cases, sure. We've seen a ton. But good on Texas Tool Crafters for jumping on pop culture's current obsession with multi-tools and launching a whole new industry of mods: Leathermans. Want a Skeletool...

Tsvet doesn't waste any time on an intro waxing poetic about his Crocobiner on the multi-tool's Kickstarter campaign page. Why would he? One look at the EDC crocodile and its list of functions tells me just about everything...

FOBO is an acronym for For Our Better wOrld. That's a really dumb acronym. Luckily, the 24/7 Bluetooth tire pressure monitoring system it represents is sweet enough to overcome the branding misstep. And I guess I'll let...

This headlamp would be better if its LED light rotated 360-degrees and was brainwave-controlled. But I guess 90-degree vertical movement and manual manipulation are OK too, especially if you need a headlamp for more than...
