Holex Cable Splitting Knife - a beautiful, affordable SAK alternative? VineClimber 2024-03-29 | The Holex Cable Knife (Kabelmesser) is a beautiful multitool knife. In the United States, it only seems to be available from Hoffman group.hoffmanngroupusa.com/holex-cable-knife-with-wooden-handle-foldingCould this be a good Swiss army knife competitor? Well, I think for some people it might be. The beautiful wood scales are honestly just gorgeous, and the unusual tool set might be appealing to a variety of knife collectors. It doesn't have the fit and finish of a Victorinox, but it's beauty and interesting tool set makes it a very welcome part of my collection. The best part of this is that it is a very inexpensive knife at coming in less than $13 currently on Hoffmann Group USA.
Plus Scale 111 mm Swiss Army Knife!

Its Controversial, but breaking the blade off of your Swiss Army Knife gives you a Bladeless SAK. VineClimber 2024-03-18 | What if you were to simply break the blade off of your Swiss army knife? Is this a mod that's worth doing? Is it hard to do? Is it safe to do well? It's not safe, but I will also tell you that I had a very easy time with this. I broke the blades off of a Swiss army knife that was 58 mm and then snapped the blade off of a second 58 mm Swiss army knife and I also broke the blade off of a 91 mm Swiss army knife using a clamp. Original description below:Ok, here it is! And if you thought I was willing to look stupid to say thank you to my first 1000 subscribers, you are really going to think I'm an idiot now!

Zulu-style Strap on the LWS2200H VineClimber 2024-03-08 | The Amazon links below are affiliate links, so by using them to buy these or other products, you may be supporting the channel without costing yourself anything! What a deal!MARATHON WATCH BANDYou will need the 16mm width for the LWS2200H. The length I have is 10 inches - I guess that could possibly be as short as 5.5 inches without making another hole, but I worry about the band stretching over time. Note that I cut it in the video.According to my calculations, I think that the 11 inch watch band will get up to an 8 and a 1/2 inch wrist size ????Here's the exact band I used 10 inches long and desert tan (16mm is necessary for this watch):amzn.to/48pfqUM Here's the 11 inch black band, which maybe of interest to people with larger wrists who want to get the black watch and make it longer:amzn.to/3Ie4Sgy WATCH STRAP TOOL KITThis is the watch strap tool kit that I purchased.

Why are there no bladeless Swiss Army Knives? (except the jetsetter, but cmon, man!) VineClimber 2024-02-23 | It seems to me that many of us are longing for a bladeless Swiss army knife.Why hasn't Victorinox given us a bladeless Swiss army knife?Well, I sure don't know why, but in this video I'm gonna make a lot of suppositions and guesses and you can watch along.

Can Bluetooth make a Casio Better? VineClimber 2024-02-05 | I love Casio watches with productivity features. I recently reviewed the LWS2200H- but Casio made pretty much the same watch with some added Bluetooth features as a GShock model. Will the benefits of Bluetooth outweigh the drawbacks?Below are Amazon links to searches for the Casio G Shocks GMDB800 and GBD800. Links to the Casio LWS2200H, the non- GShock Casio used for comparison in today's video, are listed below. I chose to use links to searches for the G Shocks rather than individual products, because with these items there are a variety of sellers and you probably should look around to make sure you're getting the best price in the store. Additionally, sometimes different colorways become available. Because of the way Amazon lists items, however, be sure that you are positive you're getting the correct watch. For example, the first search below will often list watches that are actually GBD800 s, not GMDB800 s!GMDB800 - the GShock discussed in today's video - I have the gray color, which does not seem to be available anymore. It's tough and has amazing functionality - the only problem for me is how obnoxious the beeps are! In my opinion, the watch strap is long enough to fit many men.amzn.to/3w21YZBGBD800 - A men's G Shock version which MIGHT have the same functionality as the GMDB800 discussed in this video. But I don't really know, because i don't have one!amzn.to/3HO2k8wLWS2200H- Honestly, this is my choice for a productivity watch most days. The style is epic Casio, and the functionality is nearly perfect. I do wish it had the Bluetooth features, but the beeping is so much more appropriate for populated areas! The watch strap on this is long enough for people with small wrists. Mine is 5.9 inches and it's perfect.

Hobonichi Accessories You Need! (maybe) VineClimber 2024-01-27 | I love my Hobonichi Cousin. I have a few "accessories" I thought I'd show you - they are an easy and useful part of my EDC. "2D white out," glasses that actually fit in the Hobonichi pockets (even in the Hobonichi techo - in the sideways front pocket) and a Victorinox Swiss Card.if you are interested in getting these yourself, I put a few links here. Thile Amazon links are affiliate links, and the channel may earn a small commission if you purchase anything after clicking on this link.2D CORRECTION TAPEHere's the 2D correction tape - I came upon this because I couldn't figure out a way to store some white out with me easily. I just bought these on Amazon. You very a lot of them for not very much money! Then I cut them up into the appropriate size, fold them in half, and I always can fix my little errors.amzn.to/49b6uDmTHINOPTICS GLASSESI really love these tiny glasses because they're not the kind of thing, I wouldn't wear them all day of course, but since I usually don't need any glasses, I find them wonderful when I just need to be able to see my Hobonichi Cousin a little bit better. Last year I had an A6 Techo and I was able to put these in the sideways pocket.Here's a link to the ThinOptics 2-pack I bought...amzn.to/3OmaJnrbut I think you could save some money if you only want one with the keychain case version, which is really very cool. I carry those in a bag for work. amzn.to/3SylMfFif you are going to buy the ThinOptics, I would actually look around at all of the Different versions. They are offering to make sure you can get a good deal. If you're going to carry it in your planner, you will not need a case at all.VICTORINOX SWISS CARDThere are several versions of the Victorinox Swiss card available at Amazon. amzn.to/3OjE2HsThe one I showed in this video, I purchased from Victorinox directly. It does look nice with the cover of my Cousin, but it doesn't match exactly.

Friendly Knives - Design Language Matters VineClimber 2024-01-19 | Does your knife make you look friendly? With the 4 rules I present here, you can evaluate your knife on friendliness. I just made these up. So it really might not be a very good scale. The friendliest knife may be the one that cuts you out of a problem, for example, no matter what it looks like. Does your knife look like it's made for helping or harming?This is not a value judgment on knives that I might think look unfriendly. I actually like knives that I think might look unfriendly. It's just that I don't really like to use them in public. And I have a lot of appreciation for people who carry knives of all sorts. Knives are, first and foremost, a tool.All of the Amazon links below are for supporting the channel - it's the Amazon Associates program, and the channel earns a small amount from each purchase of these or other items.

A Day in the Life of my Swiss Army Knife VineClimber 2023-12-11 | How often do you really use your Swiss army knife? That question is brought up on my channel occasionally and on other channels quite a bit. I thought I would answer it by simply recording what I did with my Swiss army knife in one Saturday.I do think I use my Swiss army knife a lot. I was a little bit worried that I would have a day during which I didn't actually need to use it for anything. So I picked a Saturday during which I'm typically pretty busy around the house, which is where I use my Swiss army knife the most. However, my Swiss champ came in handy more times than I thought it would - 20 times over the course of the day!

Washi doing with your Swiss army knife? VineClimber 2023-12-09 | I love Swiss army knives, but they don't always have the style I'm looking for. Swiss army knives can be made more beautiful with washi tape. This removable, colorful tape can be applied and removed and replaced with other patterns and designs and colors to give you a personalized Swiss army knife, which matches your clothes, mood or favorite sports team. Make your Swiss army knife a beautiful Swiss army knife.

Casios virtually unknown minimalist productivity powerhouses: LA11WB, LA11WL, and LA670WEM VineClimber 2023-09-17 | I have fallen down the rabbit hole of casio watches. In particular, I love the digital and anadigi watches for their amazing functionality which is really helping me live a better life. One example is that he timer function is amazing at improving my productivity.Casio makes some very sleek, minimalist watches, which really hit A. They have an amazing timer function. Where the timer is on the main screen and accessible via one button. Each time you press the timer, the time set increases. And it's just noted with a small line at the top of the screen. This amazing direct to Timer Functionality Is Paired With A Stopwatch and Alarm As Well As Day and Date functions. This makes these small women's watches fantastic productivity tools. I just wish they made them a little bit larger. Because even on my wrist, they are pretty small. That being said the LA670WEM is a beautiful and delicate watch, the LA11WB has awesome retro vibes, and the LA11WL has a casual and clean look that I wish I could enjoy more!The LA11WB, LA11WL, and LA670WEM Seem to be very unappreciated in the cassio watch world, probably because they are targeted at women, and have no male counterpart. I think this is such a shame because the functionality of this watch is amazing and honestly, I wish it were larger too - if there were a men's version. I would definitely own it!.

The Victorinox Sportswoman! VineClimber 2023-09-06 | The Victorinox Sportsman is a fantastic Swiss Army Knife for women! women will love the size, proportions, nail-saving tools, nail file, and might not admit how much they love the tweezers! Don't get me wrong. The sportsman is also great for men, and there are tons of Victorian ox products that are of course good for men and women but in a world where women aren't all that interested in Swiss army knives, I think this is one that could use a little introduction.These first two links are Amazon affiliate links: This seems a little bit spendy for the Sportsman II, which has nylon scales. I do love them and yet the price right now is $39, but I think it has been discontinued:amazon.com/Victorinox-Swiss-Sportsman-Pocket-Knife/dp/B000FNIL7Q/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2ZJWRUSNW4D0B&keywords=victorinox+sportsman&qid=1693864769&sprefix=Victorinox+sports%252Caps%252C172&sr=8-3&_encoding=UTF8&tag=vineclimber-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=4f3378f588fca42ad4b6f88c35cc679a&camp=1789&creative=9325 And then the Sportsman with cellidor scales: amzn.to/3EqhFur Don't like red scales?

Casios Vibration Alarm Watches - W735H, W736H, TRT110H, and GD350 VineClimber 2023-09-04 | Cassio is known for making some amazing digital watches, but the vibration alarm feature is not available on many watches other than some of the newer versions that connect to your phone via Bluetooth. If you are looking for a more traditional watch without a phone connection at a really great price, that features a vibration alarm, I discuss those in this video. If you are interested in having a watch that is timer focused, all of these watches really highlight some great timer features. I can't wait to show you the vibration alarm watched with great timer features in this video!The W735H and W736H pair a one-button restart of the timer along with the vibration alarm. The timer is the first feature you will reach when hitting the mode button and because the mode button will go back to the main time keeping screen after you use the timer, I find these to be really great productivity choices at really affordable prices. The TRT110H is a mud-resistant version of the same watch. The vibration alarm and the timer featueres are the same on the TRT110H as on the W735H and W736H - the one button timer reset is awesome! - but to me, it looks WAY cooler with a round, non-warthog-shaped case.The GD350 is a G-shock that can start its timer from the home screen and has a vibration alarm, along with a really cheerful and friendly scrolling message bar and an awesome way of turning on and off alarms.All of these links are Amazon affiliate search result links - If you click on them, the channel may make a little bit of money and you will not pay anything extra.. There are a lot of different colors which each have their own listing. W735H - this one has the warthog look and was shown in the video (the "purple" actually looks more blue, and is called blue):amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&tag=vineclimber-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=f40c24f4c77868c17c88d1bbb76c8c80&camp=1789&creative=9325&index=watches&keywords=W735h"W736H - This one has the warthog look but has the largest digits. This is the one I don't own (yet!).

Be aware that the price you pay for the features of looking round and having mud resistance is that the buttons are a bit harder to push!amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&tag=vineclimber-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=a665264c8d8c7cab962a9ce2c07253b7&camp=1789&creative=9325&index=watches&keywords=TRT110HAnd if you want a G Shock with a vibration alert, this is your bet, the GD350. amazon.com/gp/search?ie=UTF8&tag=vineclimber-20&linkCode=ur2&linkId=f234398ec376a947ede4be7308973f74&camp=1789&creative=9325&index=watches&keywords=Gd350Keep in mind that there are other Casio watches with vibration alerts. Some of them are not much more expensive than the GD350, but they all are Bluetooth connected, and that really wasn't what I was looking for!
EDC Hiking on a Sunny Afternoon VineClimber 2023-08-27 | I took a short hike today to rejuvenate. None of what I brought was gear that I got special for hiking but rather it's gear that I have for other reasons that also works well during a hike! The most important thing I think that I took from today's hike was not how well my gear served me but how poorly my attitude did. I really love my holster from Wide River on Etsy.
