Dang, that’s an interesting looking knife. Too bad it’s not available until November. Hey, my birthday is in November. I think that 2 + 2 might just equal the Leatherman Skeletool.

Elf Dentist, some of this stuff might be nice as well: Stuff for my New Camera: A small/lightweight and collapsible tripod. I will probably […]

I dropped my camera on Thanksgiving. It turns out expensive cameras don’t stand up to physical abuse as well as I might have expected. I look down and I see pieces. My heart breaks. Then I realize the pieces are just the camera and the battery which popped out. For a moment, I had hope. […]
