LOOP GEAR SK05 Flashlight

The LOOP GEAR SK05 is a versatile, rechargeable 4-in-1 flashlight offering a spotlight, floodlight, side light, and power bank. It features a 1,300-lumen spotlight with a 440-meter range, a 3000-lumen floodlight, and a multicolored side light. Three high CRI Nichia LEDs in the floodlight ensure true color visibility, the lockout mode prevents accidental activation, and the 18W fast Type-C charging fully charges it in 1.6 hours. It also allows quick battery replacement with two included 4000mAh 18650 batteries. The flashlight comes with a magnetic tail cap for hands-free use, is IP68 waterproof, and has an ergonomic design for comfortable handling. You can reserve now for $1 prior to the Kickstarter to get a massive deal on your SK-05 unit at the link below.

Kizer Cormorant

Carrying a pocket knife doesn’t have to be all about business. There’s room for fun folding knife designs like the new Kizer Cormorant. Two main points of consideration stand out for this knife: the Tetris-inspired retro video game design on the G-10 handle scales. The second is the fidgety and fun deployment of the German-made Nitro-V stainless steel blade. There are four ways of opening the knife: the button lock, front flipper, low-profile rear index flipper, and thumb hole. With its smooth pivot and lightswitch action, you can have much fun while completing your tasks with the Kizer Cormorant.

Luminox Heritage Collection

To commemorate its 35th anniversary, Luminox has released three special timepieces, each celebrating the brand’s storied connection with the Navy SEALs. Each piece in this new collection embodies the elements of SEA, AIR, and LAND – three territories where the SEALs operate. The series begins with the Heritage SEA represented by the Navy SEAL Original 3001.H (heritage), a tribute to the original Navy SEAL 3000 with modern enhancements like a stainless-steel bezel, a sapphire crystal, ETA quartz movement, and a red “30” on the bezel, signifying the 30 years since the original watch was launched. The Heritage AIR is represented by the F-117 Nighthawk x Skunk Works 6442.H, inspired by the stealth and innovation of Skunk Works. This piece uniquely features the Skunk Works logo in Super-LumiNova that illuminates at night. Rounding out the series is the Heritage LAND, showcased by the RECON Point Man 8825.H. This watch serves as an advanced navigation tool for military personnel and explorers alike, equipped with cardinal points, a tachymeter, and KM/MI markers.

WaterField Designs Magnetic Cycling iPhone Case

The Magnetic Cycling iPhone Case is a game-changer for riders. The ultra-compact case snugly fits your iPhone and other small ride essentials, all in a jersey pocket. Crafted from waterproof X-Pac laminate, it keeps everything dry whether you’re drenched in sweat or caught in a downpour. It also trades in fussy zippers for a magnetic closure that can be easily operated, even with long-fingered gloves. Available in two sizes to accommodate small and large phones, it’s the sleek, efficient way to carry your gear, especially when you’re on the road.

Gerber Assert – Brooklyn Bell

Things have been quiet at Gerber on the everyday carry knife front lately. They’ve focused on releasing new camp cookware, but with the new Assert folding knife, Gerber’s keen to reenter the scene. We like the choice of American-made S30V on its 2.98″ blade, a marked departure from the brand’s more budget steels lately. There are four different colorways, but our favorite is the limited black and green edition, with a beautiful decoration designed by professional mountain biker Brooklyn Bell featuring the rolling hills of Central Oregon.

GORUCK New GR2

GORUCK has perfected the art of rugged bag design with the New GR2, a ruck inspired by Special Forces’ medical rucks. Made from durable 1000D CORDURA with the recent 210D High Tenacity CORDURA on the back panel and underside of the extra padded shoulder straps and now sporting the latest mainline upgrade, a top quick access pocket, this pack is designed to handle rugged terrain while optimizing comfort. It features a quick access zipper pocket, and YKK zippers with silent, glove-friendly 550 cord pulls. The GR2 is TSA carry-on compliant and offers exceptional organization, with two compartments, six pockets, and four rows of MOLLE webbing for customization. A removable plastic frame sheet stabilizes the laptop compartment for comfortable weight distribution. Available in 26L, 34L, and 40L sizes, each backed by the Scars Lifetime Guarantee, the GR2 is designed to handle the toughest challenges and last a lifetime.

WE Knife Co. Swordfin

The Swordfin is a sleek pocket knife crafted by Thys Meades of Meadesknives, renowned for his handmade high-end knives. This model features a tanto blade and a distinctive handle, bringing a modern twist to his traditional craftsmanship. WE Knife has perfectly translated Meades’ artistry into a production piece that’s as stunning as his handmade creations. Made from CPM 20CV steel, the blade transitions seamlessly into a luxurious handle adorned with carbon fiber and intricately layered aluminum accents. It’s a knife that’s not just functional but a piece of art.

Marathon Arctic Red Maple GSAR 41mm

Marathon’s 41mm Arctic Red Maple Edition Large Diver’s Automatic is a Government Search and Rescue (GSAR) watch designed to handle any terrain or situation. Its stark white dial was specially chosen to increase legibility in bright environments, while its durable 41mm 316L stainless steel case gives it a robust look on the wrist, enhanced by a unidirectional bezel with a 60-minute scale. For low-light conditions, the Arctic Red Maple GSAR is equipped with tritium gas tubes on all hour markers and the full hand set, including an orange tritium marker at the 12 o’clock position and a MaraGlo bezel pip for easy orientation. Rated at 30ATM, this watch is built to withstand depths of up to 300 meters (1000 feet), making it a trustworthy companion for recreational or professional divers alike. To complete the package, the watch comes with a 3-Piece Rubber Strap Kit, crafted from FKM Rubber in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland. This kit includes a tail piece with 8 adjustment holes and two buckle pieces of different sizes to ensure a perfect fit for any wrist size, meeting the high-performance requirements of military applications.
