Here’s a multi-tool option for those of you that don’t dig on the bulk of a traditional Leatherman. Designed by Custom knife makers Ed Van Hoy & Tom Stokes, the CRKT Multi-tool does a lot of shit in a small package.
How’s about a bluetooth fed portable speaker that you can take in and out of the shit without much wear? It runs $179 and by most accounts, sounds pretty damn good.
I think titanium pens rule… I mean, it’s not like they are all that functional. What can a Ti pen do that a cheap plastic disposable can’t? Nothing, but I don’t give a damn. This is cool.
Cloth covered wiring is cool for all sorts of reasons… I use it as often as I can on projects that call for it. There’s been a shortage of the stuff on the market for the past 6 months or so, but suppliers finally have their asses in gear and you can buy it again. I get mine here.
Yeah, I know… They are expensive, but dammit – they are made in the USA and they are Levi’s. A pair was recently gifted to me and I have to say, they are worth every bit of $200. There is something so reminiscent about raw shrink-to-fit denim. Magical.
