Qore Performance EDC Coin Purse

Thursday, December 26th, 2019

Introducing the all-new, limited-run EDC Coin Purse.

The purpose of the EDC Coin Purse is to carry currency to go everywhere…places other things can’t go. When we say “everywhere,” we mean everywhere. We’ve flown over 75,000 miles on commercial airlines in the United States to places like California, Illinois, New York, New Jersey and Hawaii. You get the idea.

The EDC Coin Purse is built from the exact same unique laser-cut composite laminate that we use to build the all-new, cutting-edge IcePlate Carrier Exoskeleton (ICE) (coming soon). More than 14x stronger than steel for the same weight with a tensile strength of more than 600 pounds, the EDC Coin Purse is hydrophobic, cut and abrasion resistant.

That is why the EDC Coin Purse is stitched and assembled in the same factory as most of the mission-critical free fall parachute equipment used by the U.S. Military. The EDC Coin Purse has your back. Everywhere.

100% Made in USA from American materials.

Wndsn Universal Moon Clock

Monday, December 23rd, 2019

Wndsn universal moon clock; the view from the northern hemisphere from the front, and the view from the southern hemisphere from the reverse side. Yes, it’s one and the same device, seen from the transparent, and hence mirrored, backside. Up is down.

A visual aid in determining Moon phase, we introduce a simple universal equatorium predicting cardinal direction, and approximate time (in unequal hours) from observed shape and altitude in either hemisphere. Made in Germany.

This is a teaching tool showing average (equinox) conditions; the directions and times throughout the rest of the year have to be extrapolated.

Quickcord – Ending Soon on Kickstarter

Tuesday, December 17th, 2019

Designed by former Marine Matthew Adams, Quickcord, stores, dispenses and cuts Paracord because he was tired of untangling cordage when he needed to use it. Additionally, Quickcord can be operated one-handed.

There’s an additional function which I find most interesting. Quickcord will hold a Chemlite and quickly configured as a buzz saw signaling device thanks to the cord contained inside.

Available in two colors.

Order yours now on Kickstarter.

Blast From The Past – The Chinese Entrenching Tool

Tuesday, October 29th, 2019

This may prove to be the most entertaining 8:46 of your life, or the most terrifying if you consider the Chinese horde all armed to the teeth with these shovels. It slices, it dices, it juliennes. Truth be told, a couple of the features such as the “scissor” and nail puller are pretty cool, but music and effects make this one worth the price of admission. Make sure you stay long enough to see the entrenching tool museum.

This article first appeared on SSD June 9th, 2010.
