Le Victorinox Pioneer est un modèle de la gamme Alox de Victorinox, dérivée du fameux couteau de soldat suisse, mais débarrassé de tous ses accessoires pour se concentrer sur l’essentiel : la lame. Ce n’est pas tant en épaisseur que le gain est le plus important, bien qu’il soit assez sensible - c’est surtout en […]

Benchmade rejoint les fabriquants de stylos de combat (WTF ?) avec ses deux nouveaux modèles 1100, l’un écrivant en noir, l’autre écrivant en bleu, et se différenciant cosmétiquement essentiellement par la couleur de l’endroit où on les prends en main.

Le nouveau Tenacious remplace le Delica en tant qu’entrée de la gamme des couteaux Spyderco, se plaçant en alternative à la marque chisoise de Spyderco, Byrd. Il est doté d’un acier un peu moins à la mode (du 8CR13MOV) et de plaquettes G10 (vissées), s’il conserve la bonne finition de ses aînés et leur douceur […]

The Soldier from Victorinox is the official Swiss Army Knife (until 2007, at least and with its Wenger’s cousin) and is one of the best EDC knife available today.
Compact, sturdy, very classy and dressy, it got a slighty buffier blade than its celluloid’s brothers from the Officier series. The selection of tools is very well […]

It seems that Leatherman is going to offer besides its quality tools and knives a line of Cree ledlight. It risks to be heavy (6 AAA batteries in a stainless steel body…) but don’t seems to be bulky, not much than classical 2 x CR123 tactical flashlight alla Surefire 6P.
Price TBA.

I’ve just seen last week three very interesting variations around the classical Atwood design of an EDC prying tool : the BugBites, the BottleBug and the Crawdaddy.
Departing from the Prybaby, each model have its own specific usage, beside the prying and the screwdriving. The BugBite, a wonderful titanium keychain tool, comes with an integrated hexabit, […]
