casabrews gense 10

REVIEW – Coffee is life. While I’m not addicted to the point where I can’t function without it, I sure do enjoy a cup or two each day, and some of my top travel memories are discovering new coffee shops around the world. I’m fine with a standard drip-brew cup, but a well-made espresso just […]

VT2900 Rev 200559671 scaled e1675076969786

REVIEW – Working from home often means managing more than one computer. Since my home office is a bit small and my desk only has room for one large monitor, I need to maximize space whenever possible.

fenix wf26r 5

The SOG PowerPint multi-tool packs 18 tools in a pocket friendly design

SOG PowerPint 2

NEWS – I love multi-tools as much as the next EDC fanatic, but there’s no way that I’ll carry a full-sized multi-tool in my pocket or heaven forbid, in a belt pouch. First of all, I don’t wear a belt, and secondly, I’m not Batman (or Batwoman). The SOG PowerPint is a mini multi-tool that

Vosteed Raccoon folding knife review – pocket sized guardian

Vosteed Racoon 01

REVIEW – I’ve owned a lot of folding knives. It’s something I’m passionate about so I was skeptical when a brand I’d never heard of wanted me to test their new $59 knife with a silly name. Let’s see if the Vosteed Raccoon can earn the top spot in my pocket.  What is it? The Vosteed

Olight bike light 3

REVIEW – Lights on bikes used to just be for hardcore commuters and racers doing 24-hour endurance events. But more recently, lights have become a fixture on an increasing number of bikes, even during the daytime.  This is due to the increase in bike-to-car collisions and an attempt by cyclists to make themselves more visible

This EDC wallet has some basic multi-tool functionality

quiqlite taqtracker 3

NEWS – When I say that the QuiQlite TAQTracker minimalist wallet has basic multi-tool functionality, I’m referring to the fact that the anodized aluminum wallet features a 150 lumen flashlight, a screwdriver, and a glass breaker tip.

Paris Rhone 12

REVIEW – Have I ever mentioned how much I hate cold weather?  Well, I really hate being cold.  Maybe it has to do with living in south Texas for most of my life, but I will take 100-degree temperatures over 55-degree temperatures any day.  That being said, I am also a cheapskate, and the cost
