Happy Holidays from all of us at Multitool.org

Thanks for making this place amazing!

The Raccoon has long been a fan favorite in the knife community. Vosteed has steadily evolved this crazy little trash panda with new handle materials, colors, and locking mechanisms. Enter the latest iteration: the Raccoon in Copper Dune. Featuring the patent-pending Top Liner Lock (TLL), this critter just got a serious upgrade. Let’s dive into what makes this version so exciting.

A Fresh Look: Copper Dune and Green Micarta

This Raccoon sports a green micarta handle paired with a stunning Copper Dune blade and matching hardware. In the past, I was a purist—clean blades were my jam. Coated blades always felt temporary, like their aesthetic would fade with wear. But I’ve come around. The copper finish on this one pops beautifully and gives the knife a unique, adventurous vibe. It’s a bold look, and I’m here for it.

Art takes many forms. While paintings, sculptures, and music often come to mind, there is another medium that blends beauty with purpose: knives and multitools. These tools, crafted from steel and adorned with natural and man-made materials, are interactive works of art. Unlike a painting admired from a distance, these creations are meant to be held, used, and cherished. They prove that beauty and utility can coexist, and they transform everyday tools into expressions of creativity and craftsmanship.

Knives are functional art, and the Kansept Fermi is a prime example of what happens when an artist collaborates with a top-tier production company. Designed by Burchtree Bladeworks, the Fermi brings the craftsmanship and attention to detail of a custom knife into a more accessible package. With Kansept’s stellar reputation for quality, this partnership lets more of us enjoy Burchtree’s artistry without the year-long waiting list or the custom price tag.

Tuffknives—yes, that Tuffknives—is a name that carries weight in the knife community. His designs are big, bold, and unapologetically unique, kind of like the guy himself. If you’re into knives that look ready to survive a Mad Max-style apocalypse while still slicing through an apple with finesse, you’ll love his work. The ODD21 is no exception—it’s Tuff through and through.

As someone who has extensively used the HORL 2, I was curious to see how its successor, the HORL 3 Cruise, would stack up. The HORL 2 set a high standard with its sleek wooden body, premium feel, and interchangeable discs, allowing users to customize their sharpening experience. In contrast, the HORL 3 Cruise takes a different approach—streamlined, affordable, and environmentally conscious.

Vosteed has always been a brand known for pairing innovation with charm, and the Corgi V is no exception. As the newest addition to the Corgi family, the Corgi V blends the lovable essence of the original Corgi and Corgi Pup with a serious upgrade in functionality and design. With this release, Vosteed’s Vanchor Lock makes its grand entrance into the Corgi lineup—and the result is nothing short of paw-some.
