Look, I don’t know if it’s actually possible to look both adorable and serious at the same time, but Bomber and Company might just have pulled it off with their tiny but mighty B-2 Nano Blade knife.

We’re no stranger to Baron Fig ’round these parts; I’ve reviewed the Confidant Hardcover Notebook, the Vanguard Softcover Notebook, and the Squire Rollerball Pen. Although I really like Baron Fig’s notebooks, I’m a bit obsessed with the Squire Rollerball Pen. Its just-right length, balanced weight, ergonomic shape and finish, and smooth writing tip all contribute

I’ve been a Star Wars fan since being mind-blown by Episode IV: A New Hope at a drive-in with my parents back in the summer of ’77. It was only my first of hundreds of viewings of the classic original film, but since I was only about 5 years old at the time, my memories of that

Looking not unlike an astronaut sleeping bag for your phone, Phoozy (cute name) claims to also have space-age powers. Namely, that “It provides military grade protection from the sun, heat, cold, and shock while also providing float protection.” It is literally made from materials that are used to protect astronauts from the extreme environments of

There are TONS of different bottles, flasks, tanks, and other container-type products for holding all manner of beverages. And that’s totally fine, because there is no “perfect” beverage holder. But BottleKeeper seems to be a bit unique. Slide your glass beverage bottle inside the neoprene-lined BottleKeeper and it will keep both your bottle and your

Now that Qi charging is totally a thing in the Appleverse, is anyone still paying attention to Lightning docks? Heck, I am! Until my company springs for an upgrade (not holding my breath), I’m still rocking my iPhone 6 Plus—no Qi for me. But I’ll tell ya’, I love a good dock. One that allow me

A few years ago, I noticed that some of the folks running the heavy equipment on our manufacturing floor at work were wearing what looked like a cross between company-issued earplugs and earbuds. Fast forward to a few weeks ago. I was talking to a buddy of mine who was wearing some of these things.

“This speaker is now the ultimate power in the universe. I suggest we use it.” I may be paraphrasing Admiral Motti of the Imperial Navy a bit here, but I think it’s appropriate.

We recently bought a new Apple MacBook Pro for my wife. It’s a fantastic device, but one of its limitations (I’m sure Apple would say advantages) is that basically the only ports on it are four USB-C ports. I do like USB-C and I’m looking forward to the day when old-school USB is phased out

Two words: wireless earbuds. If there has been one product one that’s absolutely exploded in the past few years, it’s probably been these little buggers.

Ever tried to leave your smart-looking dress shirt casually untucked? Yeah, for most dress shirts, it looks sloppy because their tails are just too long.
