The Gearheads' Gift Guide - 1
Christmas is right around the corner, and we’re sure that you might be having trouble trying to decipher the enigma that is the gear-head you live with. Well, hopefully we can help, and hopefully they have strategically left this magazine out in the open, and just happened to leave it open to this page for your ease. Ideally, the perfect present for a gear-head is parts or tools, however these are highly specialized items, and unless you know the actual part number of the certain piece your gear-head is looking for, we’d stay away from that strategy.
However, there are a great many things that not only make a gear-heads life easier, but also make great gift ideas. Here is our list of safe gifts that a gear-head will not only appreciate, but will also find useful.
SOG ESCAPE KNIFE
Along with a good multi-tool, every off-roader takes great value in a quality knife. The SOG Escape acknowledges this and provides a solution. As a general knife, it is the perfect size for everyday carry but still has a tremendous amount of capability with its one hand-opening blade. Integrated in the handle is a line cutter that is perfect for cutting cord, string and more importantly, seat belts when the unthinkable happen on the trail. Also important to the wheeler is a glass breaker for extreme emergencies, a wire stripper, and extra line cutter blades (which are stored under the handle slab). All this combined with a stout partially serrated spear point blade and hard anodized aluminum handle. The Escape features an 86 mm blade made from 9CR18MOV high carbon chromium bearing steel that is corrosion resistant.
