The RUT From Todd Rexford Is The World’s Best Razor Blade

Todd Rexford is an accomplished custom knife-maker, and one of the best in business. Which is probably why his R.U.T is selling for $130, when it seems to be nothing more than a fancy razor blade handle/box cutter.  But hey, the R.U.T. – short for Rexford Utility Knife - might just be the ultimate utility razor blade.

Quick, think multitool. What’s the first thing that pops into your head? For us, it’s the name Leatherman.

Fenix CL09 LED Flashlight: The Most Versatile Light on the Market

You probably have noticed, we at Gear for Life appreciate multi-functional products...gear that can be used multiple ways in multiple settings. Fenix Worldwide is known for their high-quality lighting gear.  On of Fenix's newest releases is just what we value, the multi-use Fenix CL09 LED flashlight. Even though it is promoted as a camping lantern, we see many other uses. How many times have you been under the sink trying to work on the plumbing but you just can't see the problem. You have a flashlight but it won't shine on the problem--you need a third hand to hold it in place! The Fenix CL09 has a built-in magnet base and a hanger so placing it where you need light is resolved. The light diffuser also disperses the light an evenly 360 degrees. So think of all the places you can hang or stick the little torch to help you with those "honey do lists."
