Man I love a good implement of destruction.

I have used a similar level made by Johnson when setting posts and framing walls. Having a multi-axis level is beyond invaluable to for trying to get virtually anything strait. We'll worth the negligible cost of admission.

Zach, well done here sir. I saw one of these the other day and was jaw-dropped. Love those dish wheels and the matte is the only way to go, IMO.

That box is outstanding! Can't think of a better way to get my office out of the basement. Now just where'd I put that spare 10-large?

Roan, thanks for sharing your experience and great story. It's that kind of loyalty to a great company and great products that we like to highlight here at GP. As for the tanto, thanks for pointing that out. I probably have more tantos than anything else and am sure that variety of the SRK is equally awesome.

Brilliant!

Ben, thanks for taking a look at the downsides. Can't wait to see your take on the positives tomorrow.

Jonathan, thanks for the feedback. Even though your experience differs from ours, we always appreciate the feedback. What phones are you using that you like?

Much love for the Wavebird. When I get my own personal drone aircraft, that's what I'm using to fly it.

These are gorgeous. Well done, glass-blower-guy.

Gear Patrol | The Definitive Men's Resource : Outdoor Research Helium Jacket

I would echo Jason's commentary on this jacket. Having tested it myself, I concur with his assessment of its performance. Additionally, I'm big on the cut of the jacket, the coverage of the hood, and the bold red accents. Another great piece of OR kit. Also, fine subtitle here, sir. I'm a sucker for periodic table humor. Well played.

True... but if anyone calls me with a chance to throw explosives from a helicopter, I'm there.

This reminds me that Odd Job is a nickname of GP Editor Eric Yang, as he preferred to play Goldeneye using the diminutive character. I can only image the he chose him due to the high probability of getting shot relentlessly by a certain class-skipping GP Copy Chief, were he to have chosen an appropriately-sized avatar. Just saying.

Gear Patrol | The Definitive Men's Resource : Lehr Eco Trimmer

Tue, 9 Feb 2010 16:22:22 +0000

T.M. - I'm definitely impressed with the trimmer's power. As to your two questions, the smell is virtually non-existent. Certainly less obvious and irritating than a regular 2-cycle engine. As for how long a tank lasts, I don't use anywhere near the volume of a commercial user, and, as such, one bottle of propane (just a few bucks worth) lasted me nearly 3 months.

Love that Reservoir Dogs poster. May have to have.

My Minnetonka Mocs are getting a little long in the tooth. This looks like a great replacement option at a good price.

Gear Patrol | The Definitive Men's Resource : Ralph Lauren Haiti Relief Classic-Fit Polo

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 16:04:25 +0000

Thanks for finding this, Ben. What a great option for making a difference. In a similar (and yet totally different) vein, Bungie (of Halo fame) is offering a limited edition t-shirt featuring the venerable superintendent of ODST fame. All proceeds are going to Haiti relief, as well. Check it here: http://www.bungiestore.com/BE-A-HERO-Mens/M/B0034... Don't choose between it and the Polo; just do both.
