Orion Hellcat Automatic Watch in Red

REVIEW: Orion Hellcat Watch

I must admit that I find myself missing the Orion Hellcat. I spent about 2 weeks with the burgundy-dialed variant and truly enjoyed every minute with it. The size and proportions of the watch are pretty much perfect in my opinion and I think this design will speak to a wide range of watch enthusiasts. Nick at Orion set out to create a pilot watch with the Hellcat, but I think he did something more than that.

Nutsac Satchel 15 Handle Carry

REVIEW: NutSac Satchel 15 Messenger Bag

This bag has style. The waxed canvas and leather exterior just looks like a man’s bag. More importantly, it’s built to take a beating and last a long time. Nutsac’s Satchel 15 is a great bag for the minimalist everyday carry but will have a hard time stowing much more than the essentials. A great bag for the thoughtful packer.

Tallac House Lip Balm holder in Packaging

REVIEW: Tallac House Lip Balm Holder

Tallac House set out to make a perfect lip balm holder and they hit the nail on the head; I absolutely love it. It does everything the description claimed it would do and it was made really well too. My lip balm was always with my keys and kept in perfect condition. Not to mention its really inexpensive, at only 12.50 it literally pays for itself after preventing me from buying 20 lip balms a year. Super convenient and such a cool product!

REVIEW: CRKT Offbeat™ II EDC Knife

CRKT has some of the most affordable folding knives on the market. The Offbeat™ II is the nylon handled version of its all stainless steel cousin (aptly named just: Offbeat™). The Offbeat™ II follows CRKT’s bread and butter by delivering a well-made tactical knife in a budget package. This is just what I expect from CRKT – nothing more, nothing less. A good knife for a beginning collector.

REVIEW: Trayvax – Keydex Key Organizer & Prybar

There isn’t much to key organizers – they need to hold keys, be easy to access, and hold up to everyday use. Trayvax’s Keydex does this plus a little more with its built-in prybar functionality. Pick up the Keydex if you want something low-tech, ultra-durable, and functional.
