It was there last weekend when I cooked some lake trout caught just minutes before, near my campsite. And it’ll be there for every camping trip I take in the foreseeable future. Simple, efficient, and vastly cheaper over time than disposable green propane canisters, the Ignik Gas Growler is one of the few products that I actively promote to my friends on darned…

REDSTONE ARSENAL, Ala. – In a move set to reshape the Defense Industrial Base, Tobyhanna Army Depot signed a landmark cooperative arrangement with a defense industry partner. This arrangement merges capabilities aimed at rapidly advancing domestic manufacturing and military readiness. The strategic agreement empowers TYAD and Darkhive, a company focused on modern hardware and software solutions for aerospace and defense use, to combine strengths in support of critical Department of War requirements. This cooperative agreement focuses on the future of combat and defense, including the rapid development, production and sustainment of small-unmanned aircraft systems, or sUAS. “The Organic Industrial Base…

Ford has been hard at work for a couple of years in its Long Beach, Calif., skunk works facility developing an affordable electric pickup. Now, thanks to an announcement Ford made on Thursday, we know it will be called the Fathom and will start at $29,945. The name isn’t all that impressive, subjectively, but it’s the price that we’re really interested in. Ford is clearly seeking to take a big ol’ bite out of Slate’s potential market share in the budget electric truck category. Given the rocky starts that most new car companies go through, the Fathom will probably feel…

It was the Fourth of July in Colorado, and I was about to host the backyard party of the year. Twenty or so friends were on their way for a low-country boil, a delicacy from my home state of Georgia. The volleyball net was up. Camp chairs were arranged for prime spectating. Thirty pounds of corn, shrimp, potatoes, and sausage were ready to hit the pot. But there was an issue: It was well over 85 degrees. The afternoon sun was beating down on my exposed backyard. And the only reprieve (since I didn’t have a slip n’ slide or…

Jonas Black wants to protect Yellowstone’s Mollie’s Pack. At least, that’s what he says. The animal-rights influencer recently offered a $10,000 reward for information identifying anyone who legally kills 12-year-old wolf 1090F or another member of her pack during Wyoming’s upcoming wolf season. He also promised to make the hunter famous, comparing the potential backlash to what followed the killing of Cecil the lion. I understand what he thinks he’s doing. He wants hunters to believe that killing one of these wolves will come with consequences. Instead, he may have signed their death warrant. That plan rests on the assumption…

The National Park Service (NPS) is often referred to as “America’s best idea.” Poll after poll shows that Americans across the political spectrum love national parks. Theodore Roosevelt is a beloved president, in part, because of his association with the parks. During a recent visit to Yosemite during peak season, however, I observed a wide gulf between people’s feelings and their actions. Visitors may think that national parks are the country’s crown jewels, but they treat them like garbage cans. Since NPS data has confirmed for years that Yosemite is experiencing large crowds, I saw my visit to the park…

Custom knife maker Gabriel Berthelemy is the creative mind behind a brand new Boker Plus model, the Kazy. Built along proven dimensions and with tried-and-true user-friendly philosophies, the Kazy has broad appeal. Time makes fools of us all. Just the other day we remarked on the prevalence of the 3+ inch EDC knife, and, as if on cue, the Kazy crosses our desk with a very compact footprint – we’re looking at a 2.64 inch blade here. Boker’s copy positions the Kazy as a tactical piece, and there are certainly elements of that design school here: the aggro clip point…

Cornell University has added a new rule to its Community Living Standards for the 2026-27 school year: Students can’t process wild game in communal residence hall kitchens. The policy is only one sentence long, but it doesn’t leave much room for creative interpretation. “Processing wild/game animals in community kitchens is strictly prohibited,” the updated standards state. Cornell confirmed the addition was prompted by an incident last September, when two students brought a legally killed black bear into a North Campus residence hall and butchered it in the communal kitchen. A Legal Bear Hunt Ends in a Dorm Kitchen On Sept.…
