James Brand Chapter Knife
Some of the best designs come from a need; you want something, but it doesn’t exist, so you fashion it. The Chapter Knife is a perfect example. Made with everyday carry in mind, this rethought folding design features titanium frame lock construction, with minimal parts for minimal maintenance. The drop point blade and clip are rendered in stainless steel, while scales and spacers are made from durable, lightweight titanium. $275

uKeg Pressurized Growler
The growler has seen a rise in popularity thanks to beweries’ willingness to fill ‘em up on the spot. Trouble is, beer doesn’t stay fresh for long. uKeg maintains perfect carbonation from the first pour until the last by utilizing vacuum insulated stainless steel and CO2 cartridges. This 64 ounce model features a regulator cap to keep air from leaking out, a locking dispenser tap with interchangeable handle to permit additional personalization, and a sight tube with pint and ounce measurements so that you know when you’re getting low. Comes with a pack of cartridges, too. $149
