Picture this, rockhounds: You walk up to a popular climbing crag, tap your watch, and immediately get a list of possible routes near you. Then you can select “Outdoor climb,” and head up a multipitch route while the watch clocks your approach, total pitches, and descent. That’s the climbing experience that Coros is aiming for with the Apex 4, the latest upgrade to the smartwatch brand’s mountain sports line. While the watch offers plenty of now-expected features, like sleep and health tracking, its primary features are focused on mountain sports like climbing, skiing, and trail running. But it’s the automatic…

In the EDC knife world, brands like Böker and Civivi have established strong reps for producing really good-looking, highly functional folders that don’t break the bank. However, they are not alone, as a host of other makers have been known to flex these muscles too. The latest to do so, interestingly, is the big brother of a budget brand. I’m talking about Artisan Cutlery, which takes a page from CJRB’s playbook with the surprisingly affordable Tradition V2. It is strange to see a $45 knife bearing the Artisan nameplate.  That is usually the price level of CJRB knives. Read the…

I didn’t know a cold plunge could look — or smell — so divine. The Redwood Outdoors Alaskan Cold Plunge Tub is a work of art that arrived smelling like the pine tree gods had planted a blessing in my backyard. I first started dabbling in cold plunging in my backyard: the San Miguel River in Telluride followed by the Slate River in Crested Butte. Headwaters are very cold! While I don’t consider myself a diehard plunger, I utilize cold plunging to reduce inflammation and to boost recovery. Having a cold plunge next to the hot tub makes that process…

SIG Sauer just unveiled its new Hexium suppressor line, which consists of modern 3-D printed, (additive manufactured) low backpressure “flowthrough” style units. In addition to the low backpressure design, SIG Sauer Hexium units are HUB-compatible, making them adaptable to a wide variety of firearms. Internally, SIG Sauer Hexium suppressors feature a unique pattern of mazes and chambers that vent and redirect gas throughout the suppressor body and exhaust them at the front. This reduces the backpressure, soot, fouling, unburned propellant and other harmful byproducts that are the result of modern smokeless propellant. SIG Sauer uses materials such as nickel-based Inconel…

There are loads of cool items shown at AUSA but let’s face it, no matter how much I want one, there’s no way I’m getting an FN Multi-Purpose Tactical Launcher 30mm and even if I did, I’d never be able to get ahold of the ammo. But, there are other items which are both usable and attainable like this Military Grade Borka-Tool kit exclusive to Pro Shot Products. This adjustable torque driver is easy to use and offers two scales (10-27 inch-Ibs. & 28-70 inch-Ibs.) to enhance adjustment resolution for increased precision and ease of use. Built for right hand…
