Gloveshot Slingshot

My day wouldn't be complete without a post about some sort of weapon. With that said, this is the Gloveshot Slingshot, the configuration of this bad ass slingshot features a horizontal grip and  woven para cord band for bracing your shot across the back of your hand. The nice thing about this slingshot is this type of brace allows you to bypass many state laws that have outlawed forearm braced slingshots. Dennis the Menace wishes he had access to one of these...

Button 2.0

Your eyes don't deceive you, that is a button that holds your ear-bud cables in place. The generically named Button 2.0 solves one of life's little problems by providing a small groove to snap in your ear-bud cables and help keep them in your ears. This is one of those things that is so simple, but such a good idea, for $3.28 I think its a steal.

Gun Egg Fryer

I like guns, a lot. I like eggs, a lot. It just makes sense that i would want my morning eggs to be shaped like guns.

Crovel Tactical Shovel

Its safe to say I am a sucker for a kick ass tactical shovel, and the Crovel Tactical Shovel is no exception to this fact. The Crovel features a chromoly steel shovel head, threaded hollow steel tubular handle design and a sweet stabbing spike on the end of the handle. This sweet digging machine weighs in at only 3lbs and the handle is wrapped in 15 feet of 550 Paracord. This shovel is made in the USA for use by Americans because only us Americans need a bottle opener on a shovel. Wipe the drool off your keyboard.

MoMA Multigrater

I really love my Microplane cheese grater, unfortunately i can only grate my cheese at one thickness. I'm not saying i'm going to be trading it in any time soon, but if i were in the market for a new grater, I would look closely at the Multigrater from the MoMA. not only does it look like a cool folding pocket knife but it also features 3 cheese grating options for all your cheese grating needs.
