REVIEW – Do you find yourself needing a ruler or measuring tape frequently? If you’re like me, when you do need one, you spend way too much time asking everyone if they’ve seen it. When did I last use that ruler? What the heck did I do with that tape measure? Who used it last […]

REVIEW – If you’re looking for the latest and greatest tactical knife that you can fidget with all day long, turn away now. This one is for Case fans, fans of slip joints, and fans of knife designs like your Granddaddy used to carry. I love all kinds of knives but Case knives always provide
REVIEW— I’ve worked with and on electronic devices for at least 30 years, and one thing I’ve learned is that they’re all dust magnets.

REVIEW – I started a new job a couple of years ago. Trust me, it was for the better. This new job, however, requires I go out on construction sites which means I need PPE (personal protective equipment). One of the items I needed was steel or comp toe boots. So, I researched online and

REVIEW – Vosteed is back with another knife. Shocking, I know. This time they’re following their excellent Raccoon pocket knife with a baby version, the Raccoon Cub. Get it? Baby version? Never mind.

REVIEW – I’m late to the 3D printing game. I’ve wanted one since printers became available for consumers but never pulled the trigger to purchase one.

REVIEW – I have some hearing loss like a lot of people. I have to have the TV up pretty loud to actually hear what’s being said. In crowded situations, I have to concentrate on the person speaking in hopes of grabbing enough of what they’re saying to be able to hold a conversation. Most
REVIEW – When you think of action movies what do the heroes, anti-heroes, and villains all choose as their primary weapon of choice? Right, a gun, but what is their backup weapon? Yeah, you’re right. It’s probably another gun, but the weapon of last resort is usually a knife. And what kind of knife? Well,
