REVIEW – In case you haven’t noticed in the 25+ years that I’ve been posting reviews on The Gadgeteer, I’m female 😉 and that means that I don’t really like to walk around with a huge knife on my belt (I don’t even wear belts) or in my pocket. But, I like to have a […]

REVIEW – The Vosteed Labrador pocket knife is a new addition to the ever-growing Vosteed lineup. When I first heard about it, it sounded too big to be comfortably carried as a pocket knife. The blade is almost 4″ long and the knife is almost 9″ overall. I’m not one for pocket swords but I

REVIEW – I watch a lot of knife reviews and unboxing videos. So, I’m always interested when a knife comes along for review. I don’t care if it’s uber-expensive or budget-minded. If I can get my hands on it, I want to use it, see the build quality, and check out the materials used. I

REVIEW – There are approximately 500 new EDC flashlights released daily. (This is only a rounding error – don’t @ me!) Most of them can be defined as a cylinder with a lens on one end. Wuben has a few flashlights that break this mold, and I was sent the most recent to review –

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

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

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.
