Titaner Trident: Redefining Zipper Security With A True Three-Tier Locking System
In the field of everyday carry and travel security, zipper locks have seen little fundamental innovation for decades. Most products on the market still rely on basic key mechanisms or simple clips—convenient to use, yet just as easy to defeat, offering limited protection in real-world scenarios.
Titaner Trident(37% OFF) was created to break this pattern. Built around an entirely new mechanical logic, it reexamines the role and value of compact anti-theft tools in real-life use.
1. Core Innovation: The Three-Tier Locking System
Unlike traditional zipper locks that depend on a single point of protection, Trident employs a layered structure that divides security into progressive stages:
Tier 1: Quick Locking
Designed for temporary fastening and fast closure, optimizing everyday efficiency.
Tier 2: Daily Protection
Striking a balance between convenience and security for frequent-use scenarios.
Tier 3: High-Strength Physical Locking
Delivering the highest level of physical security. (The unlocking method remains confidential, with a reward promised to the first user who successfully discovers it.)
While the first two tiers prioritize usability and speed, the third tier introduces a concealed mechanical logic that cannot be opened through intuition, brute force, or common experience. Even with partial knowledge of the structure, unlocking it without the correct method is extremely difficult, effectively delaying theft and giving users valuable reaction time. This “delay-based protection” approach elevates Trident from a simple zipper lock into a genuinely meaningful security tool.
2. Second Major Advantage: Structural Security
Crafted entirely from GR5 titanium alloy, Trident goes beyond locking logic. Paired with a non-detachable steel cable, it evolves from point-based locking into loop-based structural security. This allows users to secure multiple zipper pulls or, in suitable situations, anchor bags to fixed objects—greatly expanding its use cases in high-risk environments such as airports, subways, and short café stops.
Thanks to its high-strength physical connection, Trident functions not only as a zipper lock, but also as a small-gear attachment point, an integrated mini multi-tool platform, and an everyday carry accessory—combining protection with refined, premium aesthetics.
3. Designed for Long-Term Everyday Carry
Its minimalist mechanical structure minimizes potential failure points, ensuring stable performance even after years of frequent use. The form has been carefully refined to avoid sharp edges, discomfort, or interference during daily carry.
Operating on a purely mechanical system, Trident requires no batteries, electronics, or maintenance, delivering consistent reliability in any environment.
Ultimately, Trident embodies Titaner’s philosophy of functional minimalism—not enhancing security through feature overload, but by focusing on the most overlooked yet most frequently targeted access point: the zipper.
Trident does not claim to make theft impossible. Instead, it makes it difficult, noticeable, and not worth the effort. With its three-tier locking system and clearly defined design priorities, Trident sets a new benchmark for what a zipper lock can—and should—be.
Yeti’s Yonder Shaker Bottle Is Great For Hydration Mixes
Staying hydrated is important when you’re working up a sweat in the gym or out on an outdoor adventure. Water jugs, sports bottles, and tumblers provide on-the-go hydration. But if you want more out of your bottle, then YETI quielty launched its Yonder Shaker Bottle so you can turn a plain drinking water into an energy drink or any mixed drink.
The launch came after YETI acquired the assets of Helimix for a reported $83 million. The acquisition gave YETI Helimix’s famous patented vortex-mixing design, which is a fave among gym buffs who prefer bottles without mesh screens or metal balls for hydration mixes.
This means the Yonder Shaker Bottle doesn’t needs a screen or a whisk and doesn’t have any loose parts inside. Instead, it uses the patented Helimix Technology, which uses a unique wall design to deliver a powerful swirling motion to blend powders smoothly.
The bottle’s hex-shaped design creates a natural tornado effect. It whips ingredients together just using motion: each shake triggers the bottle’s internal geometry to create a cyclone that blends powders and liquids together. The design reduces clutter or extra pieces (including the added cleanup after each use).
YETI’s Yonder Shaker bottle is best for protein shakes, pre-workouts, greens, hydration mixes, smoothies, meal replacements, and more. It also offers leak-proof storage and sips with its covered chug-style spout. Its lid locks down tight with a snap closure and stays shut even through hard shakes or any outdoor activity.
Durable Elio Water Bottle Folds Down Into A Pocket-Size Disc
The Elio reimagines the portable water bottle into a functional structural totem. It makes stylish artistic display on your desk and offers reliable on-the-go hydration. Outside of its pleasing aesthetics, it boasts a lightweight yet robust shell that can withstand whatever life throws its way.
This bottle holds 750ml (25.4 fl oz) water in a dishwasher-safe construction made with food-grade platinum silicone (BPA-free) for pure and odor-free hydration. The silicone comes with an aluminum hard case for flexible protection. You can step on it, throw it, or drop it and it immediately bounces back into shape.
Elio provides hassle-free one-handed opening for quick, effortless on-the-go sips while running, travelling, or working out. Moreover, it features a leak-proof seal so you can toss it inside your bag and has a wide mouth for easy refills, ice loading, and hand washing.
But what makes this water bottle stand out from its kind is its ultimate packability. It weighs just 0.16kg when empty and moves with you but out of sight. When not in use, it twists down flat in seconds into a pocket-size disc. It locks flat into its base into a compact 3cm disc that easily slips inside pockets, backpacks, or clutches.
Elio even doubles as a colorful bag accessory when packed down. It has a discreet handle that loops around bags, belt loops, or wherever you hang it for quick access. Moreover, unlike rounded water bottles, its triangular form ensures stability on surfaces. It lies flat on its side and doesn’t roll away when accidentally knocked down.

Heckler & Koch’s SFP Tactical Folder Oozes Rugged Masculinity
Only very few knife designs catch our eye. But Heckler & Koch’s SFP Tactical Folder oozes rugged masculinity from the handle to the blade. The German brand produces the highest quality and innovative weaponry, from guns to knives, and this all-black version of its loved SFP Tactical Folder is no different.
The discreet yet rugged black silhouette is handsome to look at. But best of all, the knife feels good in the hands. The design incorporates elements from the brand’s world-famous self-loading SFP pistol, notably on the polypropylene handle.
Heckler & Koch’s SFP Tactical Folder’s offers an ergonomic handle with strategically-placed finger recesses for a secure and comfortable grip. It lies securely in the hand. It is grippy enough to hold in wet weather conditions and even when used with gloves on.
Moreover, another noticeable detail is on the blade design. The robust 3.60-inch stonewashed spear point blade is crafted from D2 steel, which is known for its good combination of hardness, edge retention, and resistance to corrosion and wear.
The black-coated blade can handle everyday heavy-duty use and has a partially serrated edge handy for sawing. It deploys via an ambidextrous thumb stud and locks securely in place via sturdy steel liners.
Moreover, Heckler & Koch’s SFP Tactical Folder is portable and compact enough for everyday carry at 8.58″ long and 4.50 oz. It comes with a high-quality nylon case for safekeeping. Branding on this folder is subtle and found on the handle scales and the deep carry tip-up pocket clip.

CRKT Shrinks The CEO Knife Into The 3-Inch Long Microflipper
CRKT took its popular CEO knife design and made the CEO Microflipper, an even smaller version offering superior portability. But it boasts the same robust build and lightweight strength as the OG.
This new version measures an overall length of 5.50″ and a mere 3.25″ when closed. It weighs 1.70 oz. (48.19 g) and packs a reliable and sharp 12C27 stainless steel blade for excellent edge retention. The blade is plain edge with a satin finish and measures 2.21″ long and 0.09″ thick.
The CRKT CEO Microflipper operates smoothly with a blade deployment reliant on an IKBS ball-bearing pivot system. The flipper deploys the blade fast and locks in place for safety via a liner lock which can be closed with one hand. Meanwhile, the lightweight aluminum and strong handle complements the razor-sharp steel blade. Together, they make this flipper a great EDC for small tasks both domestic and outdoors.
This folder comes in two versions: a drop-point blade with textured silver aluminum handle and blue liner and a sheepsfoot blade with blue aluminum handle and silver liner. It may be the smallest and lightest version of the famed CEO folder. But it seamlessly combines refined style and ultimate convenience and competitive strength that makes it a “serious contender for any job.”
Plus, the CRKT CEO Microflipper boasts a sleek silhouette easily disguisable as a pen when tucked by its pocket clip. It may have an unassuming profile but it doesn’t cut corners in functionality and quality. It’s the perfect everyday carry with its smooth blade opening and ergonomic handle.

The James Brand Redstone Is Designed For All Adventure
The James Brand Redstone is more than just a beautiful piece of EDC in a compact and minimalist design. Its features make it adventure-ready especially with its sharp blade and ambidextrous grip.
This folder comes in two colorways: in a candy-like aesthetic for a more lively appeal and in a ruggedly dark silhouette. Yet both share the same high-quality structure that The James Brand is known for. They come in a one-piece chassis to minimize parts and keep dirt and grime out.
The James Brand Redstone is also easy to operate even with just one hand both opened and closed. An ambidextrous slide lock mechanism deploys the blade and also keeps it securely in place during usage. Meanwhile, a textured grip made with durable polypropylene scales makes a great pair for the partially serrated drop point blade so the knife can work for just about anything, from cutting, slicing, prepping, hiking, climbing, improvising, and more.
For portability, this pocketknife comes with the brand’s very first formed-wire pocket clip for a deep carry. An added lightweight paracord adds another transport option if you want to hang it to your bag, your pocket, or anywhere you want it within easy reach.
The James Brand Redstone is meant for easy and lightweight carry. Thus, the minimalist design and single chassis. It weighs just 50 grams with an overall length of 6.2 inches. It fits comfortably in the palm of your hands so you can work with ease. The blade is also just the right size for a simple task at just 2.5 inches. Meanwhile, a Sandvick 12C27 steel blade paired with the compact size makes it ready for all sorts of adventure.

Secure Your Precious Bottle of Wine With the Rimowa One Bottle Case
Wine connoisseurs will find the Rimowa One Bottle Case handy especially during travel. It is literally a safe house for your most-priced bottle of spirits.
This case comes with the German luggage brand’s trademark grooved aluminum shell in silver color. Aesthetics-wise, the surface takes on an elegant and modern appeal. It boasts high-gloss aluminum corners and a black leather handle tag that “adds a tactile note of luxury.” It also comes with a TSA-approved lock with a heritage look that can be triggered either by a combination or key for optimum security.
Meanwhile, the interior of the Rimowa One Bottle Case comes in luxurious black for an attractive contrast to the silver silhouette. To prevent any cracks to the bottle during transport, the interior boasts a clever system of foam padding. Three removable cushions wedge the bottleneck to prevent it from moving. Glass-coddling microfiber that lines the paddings helps to insulate the bottle so it stays cool for hours.
The case can hold most bottle sizes but as its name entails, it can only accommodate one bottle with its interior space of 7.8″ H x 16.4″ W. If you’re heading to a suit-and-tie party and tasked to bring expensive wine, then you know where to store it. While you’re at it, why not go a bottle of Dom Pérignon, Veuve Clicquot, or
Moët & Chandon. Moreover, the Rimowa One Bottle Case makes a great conversation piece. It is even lightweight at 4.4 pounds and is sleek just like any other luggage line from the luxury brand.

Cooly: Completely Hands-Free Portable Fan
As this pale blue dot in our solar system orbits around the sun, its axial tilt creates the seasons. Depending on where you are — relative to the planet’s Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere — the temperatures may vary. Although it is easier to keep warm even while outside with the help of layered clothing, the opposite is somewhat more difficult. However, with the help of a gadget called Cooly it shouldn’t be a problem anymore.
Without an air conditioner, there are several ways to beat the heat. You can grab a frozen treat, stay in the shade, drink plenty of fluids, and maybe turn on a fan. As indicated by the latter, this is where the Cooly shines. The concept behind it is already familiar to a lot of folks, which makes it easy to use. Moreover, the stuff it does differently makes it an interesting item to have handy.
Back this cool project now: Here
What is the Cooly?
To put it simply, this is a portable fan. However, it is one that provides hands-free cooling wherever you go in a clever fashion. In fact, it will perform this function even while you are engaged in other activities. This versatility is what makes the Cooly an awesome accessory for people who hate being drenched in sweat. Warmer seasons or climates are unavoidable, but we now have an intuitive device to make it more bearable.
How does it work?
As moisture evaporates, it generates a cooling effect. This is exactly what our body does when we are exposed to temperatures higher than usual. The Cooly helps this process along by directly blowing air across a larger surface area, instead of just our head. As such, you can clip it on your belt or pants with the blower facing upwards.
Secure your shirt to the secondary clip and turn it on. As you can see, this is pretty straightforward. Based on the user’s personal preference, they can position it to the sides, front, or back. A good rule of thumb is to direct the air over a part of your upper body that tends to sweat more than the rest. Physics will then take over and keep you cool until the battery runs out.
Technical Specifications And Design
On the subject of portability, the Cooly measures a pocketable 3.03” x 3.97” x 1.41” (W x H x D) and tips the scales at 5.99 ounces. We can’t help but notice the distinct retro aesthetic of its outer shell. You have curves on almost all edges, which gives it a classic streamlined look. You can say that the retrofuturistic theme just works here.
The rear section features the main clip that is color-matched to the outer shell. Meanwhile, the opposite side features a large intake that somewhat resembles a speaker grille. Slightly above it is the smaller secondary clip. Then, right on top is another grille for the blower and an integrated power button just beside it. All of these are in the same shade as the frame.
We have five chromatic options available to choose from. There’s White/Silver, White/Rose Gold, Black/Black, Black/Dark Metal, and Black/Rose Gold. Pick any colorway that suits your tastes since these will easily complement any outfit. Powering the Cooly is a 4,000-mAh battery.
It takes approximately 3 hours to fully charge via its USB-C port but might do so quicker with a fast-charging power adapter. There are three fans speed settings: Level 1 at 16.4 ft/s, Level 2 at 19.7 ft/s, and Level 3 at 24.6 ft/s. It should remain operational anywhere between 2.5 to 6.5 hours according to your usage pattern.
No worries about noise here as it produces a maximum of 76 dB on the highest fan setting. The standard package includes the portable fan, a USB-A to USB-C charging cable, and an accessory the company calls the Wind Cover. This attachment actually redirects the vent downward so you can let your shirt down over the Cooly and not affect its operation.

Our Take On The Cooly
We think this evaporating cooling device is essential for people who hate sweating when the heat becomes unbearable. It’s discrete enough to wear under your shirt out in public or even in a room with minimal ventilation. We believe that it will definitely come in handy when you least expect it. Therefore, grab a few and keep them charged. Who knows? Maybe everyone else will be so eager to find out how you stay so fresh at all times. Don’t be surprised if you’re suddenly the most popular guy around.

Kizer Knives Dabbles With A Magnetic System For Its Rhino EDC Folder
When it comes to EDC knives or blades in general, there’s not really much to innovate. Perhaps the use of special materials or maybe the introduction of new manufacturing methods count as such. Nonetheless, Kizer prepares to launch the Rhino – its latest folder. Aside from the sleek and stylish design, it also touts a unique folding gimmick.
To be honest, we’re not exactly sure how Kizer hopes to market this mechanism. Still, just the fact that how users can deploy or close the Rhino should give it an advantage over other contemporary models. We always love to see how engineers come up with ways to integrate magnets into anything.
You can actually flip open each scale separately and they will recouple with a satisfying snap courtesy of the magnetic system. The Rhino is an EDC knife, from a label that might not be as prestigious as the rest out there. Yet, enthusiasts and collectors have lauded many of its previous outings.
This implies the craftsmanship and durability is presumably top-notch, which is what you need to always consider. Survival experts will tell you to never compromise quality as it could mean life or death in certain scenarios.
Not to worry, because Kizer endows the Rhino with a Wharncliffe blade forged out of S35VN stainless steel. Moreover, the stonewashed finish adds a satin luster to the metal. It then matches with a pair of titanium scales with a classy two-tone aesthetic.
The anodized blue is a welcome contrast to the otherwise dull gray of the metal. Also, a section of the handles features knurling to improve your grip. Finally, the tip-up pocket clip secures the Rhino in place during transport.
