Gränsfors Bruks American Felling Axe

RTIC Soft Pack 30 Cooler

Miles out in the sticks, your bud turns to you with sweat beading across their brow. They look you in the eye, trembling, as they say the four words that can lay waste to any fishing or camping expedition, "we're out of beer." 😶 Smoother than Sinatra's aftershave, you reach into your hidden RTIC cooler and pull out an icy brew. 🍻 Crisis averted, friendship tempered, satiety your reward.

Pocket Ref

A lack of information has never ended well for humanity. In the 19th century, doctors thought milk was a good substitute for blood transfusions. In the 20th, teens thought JNCO jeans would be cool forever.

The Pocket Ref lays out information on everything from first aid to mapping, conversion tables to construction. Your bud seeks knowledge 🧠, reward their good sense with this.
