The Kansept Osprey is a fascinating blend of compact design and bold utility, crafted by 18-year-old Canadian knifemaker Jonathan Shaw. Despite its official designation as a Wharncliffe blade, its pronounced curve and aggressive profile align more closely with the utility and aesthetics of a hawkbill blade. This distinctive shape is what sets the Osprey apart in both form and function.
The TRM Bulldog isn’t just another knife—it’s that scrappy yet polished companion you didn’t know you needed. Compact, hardworking, and undeniably charming, it’s the EDC equivalent of a loyal pup: always ready, never in the way, and packing plenty of bite.
Pry bars are a hot topic in the EDC community. You’re either a believer in their utility or part of the crowd that sees them as a fleeting trend, arguing that a screwdriver or similar tool can handle the same tasks. The skepticism makes sense—we went decades without carrying pry bars and managed just fine. But times change, and so do needs. One of the main drivers behind their popularity is the tendency for people to misuse knives for tasks like prying, often snapping the blade. Enter the pry bar: a "blade saver" that’s become a staple, appreciated for its versatility. From opening boxes and cans of paint to popping out window screens, a simple flat piece of steel or alloy has transformed into an indispensable tool.

When it comes to knife maintenance and emergency repairs, my go-to has always been a trusty Kershaw driver. But the OKnife Otacle D1 Brass Driver has introduced a touch of elegance and functionality I didn’t know I needed.
The Victor is a fascinating blend of nostalgia and cutting-edge innovation. With its classic design and pioneering Friction Forged technology, it bridges the gap between the traditional and the modern, offering something unique in a sea of everyday carry options.

Roxon has always been a brand with an eye for innovation, and with the Flex series, they’ve accomplished something truly groundbreaking—the modular multitool. For decades, DIY enthusiasts and tool hobbyists have dreamt of a multitool that could be customized to fit their specific needs, rather than just accepting a fixed set of tools where some might be redundant or unnecessary. With the Flex, Roxon created an adaptable system that quickly won fans in the multitool community. Now, they’ve refined and reimagined that concept with the Flex Companion, a compact, customizable multitool designed for users who don’t need pliers every day but still want a reliable toolkit in their pocket.
When it comes to everyday carry (EDC), the goal is to carry gear that meets your daily needs. For some, this means a consistent setup; for others, EDC evolves daily, adapting to new tasks and challenges. This evolution has given rise to a world of gear tailored to countless scenarios. Some people embrace minimalism, while others believe in carrying everything—including the kitchen sink.
This shifting mindset has pushed manufacturers to develop tools for specific tasks or users, whether hikers, skateboarders, or generalists. Many companies follow the “more is better” philosophy, cramming multitools with features to suit as many people as possible. But what if your tools could adapt to your needs? Enter Windeler, a UK-based company reimagining how we interact with tools.

The QSP Lark stands out right out of the box. The shredded carbon fiber overlay with that blue and black mix is captivating, catching the light in a way that’s subtle but eye-catching. Unlike flashier carbon fiber, the Lark’s handle material has a satin feel to it that’s more refined than flamboyant. It’s backed with G10 to keep costs down without sacrificing structure, and the result is impressive, with QSP living up to its name once again: Quality, Selection, and Price.
There's something charmingly nostalgic about the CIVIVI Sendy—a knife that feels like a nod to the good old days, when a trusty blade and a hanky could conquer just about anything. CIVIVI took that nostalgia and threw in a few modern perks (yes, I’m talking tweezers and a toothpick). It’s like they looked at the humble Swiss Army knife and thought, “Why not up the ante?” And so, they did—"Sendy" style.

This blade certainly stands out as a piece you’d want in your rotation for tasks both expected and unforeseen.

What kind of people would write collect and review multitools? Quite simple really- we are designers and do-ers, outdoors types and indoor types, mechanics, doctors, problem solvers and problem makers. As such, we have, as a world spanning community, put every type, size and version of multitool, multifunction knife, pocket knife and all related products to every test we could manage in as many places and environments as there are.
