Today in Gear: An Excellent EDC Knife from SOG, the World’s Thinnest Mechanical Watch & More

Today in Gear is our daily roundup of all the latest product announcements, drops and deals. Comments or concerns? We’d love to hear from you at tig@gearpatrol.com.

Ask a layman to explain what a knife is and you’ll get a weird look and vague descriptors like “sharp” or “stabby.” Ask a knife collector and you’ll get a dissertation on every kind of knife ever made, from stone age cave-scrapers to custom carbon-fiber blades. They’ll also tell you that a good knife is all in the details — something that the folks over at SOG are experts in. I mean, what else would you expect from a brand whose name stands for “Studies and Observations Group“? They read that dissertation on knives, absorbed it, and came back with the FLASH AT — a fully ambidextrous, ergonomically designed, rapid-open knife made for everyday users. The premium CRYO D2 steel blade comes with SOG’s patent-pending Assisted Technology XR Lock for a fast one-handed open and solid lock-up, as well as an optional thumb-stud for those who prefer multiple opening styles. In short, this is the knife to get if you don’t know what you’re looking for — and if you do know what you’re looking for, then you don’t need us to tell you that this is still the knife to get.

Today in Gear: Backcountry’s Spring Sale, a Watch Benefitting the National Parks & More

Today in Gear is our daily roundup of all the latest product announcements, drops and deals. Comments or concerns? We’d love to hear from you at tig@gearpatrol.com.

For those of us quarantined in cramped apartments or suddenly exposed to dangerous levels of roommate interactivity, it’s tempting to let our minds wander elsewhere — somewhere quieter and a bit more spacious perhaps, like the deserts of the American southwest. Fortunately for us, our friends over at Backcountry just dropped a spring apparel collection which happens to be inspired by the very same place — Red Rock Country in Arizona. The collection features standout items such as the 2-person Nachi Tent designed in collaboration with NEMO, the Women’s Double Dyno Climbing Pant and the Men’s Mantle Climbing Pant — all of which are currently 25 percent off along with the rest of Backcountry Gear & Apparel. And if your summer climbing trip happens to get canceled this year, those new pants can double-up as your new work-from-home pants until it’s safe to go outdoors again.

O2 Canada’s Curve Mask 1.2 provides a premium breathing experience without compromising comfort or style. And while comfort and style are important, so is the data behind it. The Curve filters out particulate matter down to 0.1 microns to create a mobile, personal and controlled breathing space that improves every breath you take. Plus, it’s outfitted with high-quality adjustable straps for simple usability and a medical-grade silicone seal (that’s a crucial distinction from other masks out there). That tight-fitting seal will even work for guys with facial hair. And don’t worry about filters, the Curve comes standard with a three-pack of electrostatic ones and is available in white, black, blue and red. The masks ship directly from the manufacturer with a one-year warranty.
