Kizer has kicked off 2025 with the Mini Mystic, one of four exciting new models to hit the market. Designed by Paul Munko, the Mini Mystic is a scaled-down version of the popular Mystic, a knife that won over enthusiasts with its ergonomic design and high-performance Rex 45 steel. While the original Mystic was a phenomenal tool, its 4+ inch blade size wasn’t ideal for everyone. The Mini Mystic addresses this by offering a more pocket-friendly design, with a 3.2-inch blade and an overall length of 7.58 inches—right in my personal EDC sweet spot.

The Olight Oclip is like the espresso shot of flashlights—compact, powerful, and guaranteed to wake you up when you see just how bright it gets. Don’t let its small size fool you; this little light packs some serious lumens.

When I’m looking for an everyday carry fixed blade, there’s a mental checklist I go through. Size—does it hit that sweet spot between being compact enough for EDC but big enough for actual work? Weight—is it light enough to carry without feeling like a brick but substantial enough to inspire confidence? Materials—can it handle tough tasks, resist corrosion, and sharpen up easily? And then there’s the carry setup—can I strap it to a pack, drop it in a pocket, or clip it to my belt without it being a hassle?
Benchmade’s new Dacia checks a lot of these boxes. On paper, it’s a real winner. It’s lightweight, rugged, and designed with both everyday tasks and outdoor adventures in mind. But after carrying and using it, I’ve got a few thoughts on where it excels—and where it stumbles.
Olight has always been a polarizing brand. You either love them for their bold designs and accessible products, or you critique them for not meeting the exacting standards of flashlight purists. I stand firmly in the "love them" camp. Diving into the flashlight world has been an adventure for me, and while I’m learning the finer details like CRI ratings and emitter types, I know most people care about three things: Is it bright? Is it durable? How often do I need to charge it? The Olight Arkfeld Pro delivers on all three, but it’s also packed with unique features that set it apart.
When I first saw the Arkfeld Pro, I was struck by its shape. A flat flashlight? It was so different from anything I’d seen before. We’re used to round flashlights because batteries are round, but Olight broke the mold here. The Arkfeld Pro is slim, flat, and feels more like a TV remote than a flashlight. And that’s not a bad thing. It’s comfortable to hold, intuitive to use, and pocket-friendly in a way most flashlights aren’t.

The Kansept Baba Yaga, designed by Greg Schob of Sparrow Knives, is a fascinating blend of artistry, performance, and durability. Schob, a custom knife maker and active-duty Coast Guardsman, brings his expertise and passion for functional, EDC-focused designs to this collaborative effort. Named after the mysterious and powerful witch of Slavic folklore, the Baba Yaga knife mirrors its namesake—unassuming in appearance but harboring immense capability.
Kansept has been on a roll this year, cranking out one standout design after another, and the Cybin is no exception. This little marvel comes from the mind of Scott Stills, a part-time knifemaker from Asheville, North Carolina, who’s pouring every ounce of his passion into Edgy Bladeworks. His creations reflect a bold, dark sense of humor and a love for unique designs, and the Cybin—a nod to psilocybin, the psychedelic compound found in "magic mushrooms"—is a perfect example.
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.

Steel and Soul: The Artistry of Knives and Multitools
Written by David BowenArt 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.
