There is a JR retail store in Burlington NC. Also, what part of NC are you in? I'm near Charlotte. If you're somewhat close we should have a smoke!

I love this style knife!! I'm more of a fixed blade person myself, that comes from growing up in the country and working on and off farms I think. But I've always admired these knives I think my wife would appreciate me carrying one of these over my usual lol.

I love this Perera Fountian Ppen.

Nice video! If you’re still looking for a wallet for your TN, Galen Leather has a nice leather wallet insert for the passport TN. It does look like it might get a little bulky and it’s quite expensive though!

Just fyi, the wire stripper works without the knife. The notch is textured. You just have to spin the notch around the rubber casing. Great video!

These also come in a small size. Perfect for the pocket. I would love to see these in many other colors and scales. Abalone would thrill me!

How many pages does this Notebook have , and it also looks like a6 ist this true? realy liked watching your video.

I'd like to learn how to create and use systems like these. Loved the video and you sharing your experiences and knowledge from using this over time. Subscribed (from Norway) and looking forward to watching more of your advice.

Love the Pocket Notebook and pens! Awesome Sowbelly, great knife for EDC

Nice carry…love the Sowbelly. Nice Notebook and Pens…Thanks for sharing

Ha ha ha. I fell for the unusual cartridge insertion too. I really like that blue and may just try it next as I am currently filled with black ink.

I'm a big traveler's fan; however, I needed something a bit bigger for note taking....Planning to pick up a Rhodia notebook to see if I like the paper or not, appreciate the recommendation! Cheers! Ryan

Some awesome stuff! That sowbelly is nice!

What a great video with the behind the scenes struggles. I think I would be too frustrated or wouldn’t be able to stop laughing if it happened to me.

I never include my beard comb in my videos. I though i was the only one who EDCs one. Love that Sod buster!! Great video sir!

That Carbon Steel gray bone soddy is my daily beater! 😂😍🔥🙌

Really cool pocket dump. I have found myself carrying a sak sd classic at home. Great sling bag

Pilot makes some great pens, but my favorite is definitely their Vanishing Point. One of my all time favorite pens.

I LOVE everything Japanese. Pens included. I didn’t know this model, and now I gotta get me ne of these!!! Thanks for this video!!!

❤❤ Hı from Türkiye.. I am happy to inform you about the Istanbul "Pen Fest" event, held at Çırağan Palace on 9-10 November 2024, where all pen lovers and companies in the world will meet. Thank you for the video.❤❤

Awesome job as always. Stay in touch and keep supporting :> twenty eight done

I have the Pilot Prera in medium nib. I really love it. I use it at work a lot. The fine nib is too fine for me.

You got that for a great price. They're usually over $40 USD. I have the same color with a medium nib, and it's my favorite steel nib.

I so adore that little chonky fountain pen haha. The ink in the new one you tried is gorgeous, it reminds me of cerulean. Also, I just noticed the pencil that you have, and it reminded me that my dad actually had a few pencils like that! I wonder if my mom's kept any of them over the years. So with the fountain pens, it seems like they're worth the investment - I have a couple of prefilled Pilot fountain pens I love. But that one that you've had for 10 years, is the original ink still in it? I'm so curious! Have a great weekend Jack. Thanks again for another fun video!

Nice collection of pens. I'm going to start dabbling in fountain pens soon. Used to have to use one in school many moons ago and i want to get back into using them daily. Great video and very inspirational to me 🙏

Beautiful knive. I own a amber bone case junior scout. And i love it. Wouldn't mind all the models in amber bone.

Brilliant Jack!! Sorry that I missed this when it first came out. I feel very similar about my channel. I did well in my first six months after monetising then revenue dropped off. Have considered Amazon affiliates..... by adding your custome amazon links to products you feature in your videos - you get a small % of what people spend on amazon after following the links. I don't do a heavy sell and just include the affiliate links in my descriptions - but that has made almost the same amount as I get through adsense....

I've been waiting for this review. What you probably experience; when you say you are liking the Lamy and Kaweco's writing; more than the Pilot pen, could be that both Lamy and Kaweco are German brands, with German manufactured nibs. Pilot is a Japanese company and Pilot nibs are known to write a finer line. So a Pilot medium nib will write more like a German fine, and a Pilot fine will be more like a German; or Western; extra fine. That's why I ordered a medium nib in my Prera. I dislike extra fines in most pens. But your gray Prera is a classic and I'm sure you'll come to enjoy it.

I‘ve been carrying a Kaweco Liliput in my jeans pocket for easy access and a Prera attached to my notebook for more comfortable writing. I wouldn’t use either for longer writing sessions, though.

I'm always glad to see a new video from you! This stuff is my happy place. I embrace technology, but for creativity and things like that, I love the analog vibe so much more. I've only recently gotten into fountain pens myself, but my TWSBI Eco is my favorite possession in the world right now. Writing with it is a joy. I appreciate your channel because I love traveler's notebooks and journals, even the junk ones, but there is an absence of a masculine direction in that space. Don't get me wrong, I learned how to make faux-dori journals from those folks (which I did with a leather cover that fits the 3.5x5.5" notebooks and it is rad). So I appreciate what they do, but it's cool to see how other gents use these things. Safe Travels!

You can’t say something stupid! I love fountain pens, the look etc. I have too many and don’t use them much because of a tremor I’ve developed. Pencils and erasers work best for me. Love your channel.

I’ve been happy with the 2 different waterproof Olight keychain flashlights I replaced a 20 year old one I got after the 1989 SF Bay Area earthquake. The Olight i3E EOS runs on 1 AAA battery and is often on sale for $9. This one makes a great gift for young people coming of age, and someone new to having a flashlight in their EDC. The Olight i1R 2EOS is rechargeable with a usb-micro port, shorter than the one you showed, but not as bright.

Excellent review of one of my favorite SAKs, the Swisschamp. Love the super tweezers name for the pliers. I will just say that the pliers on the champ, while small, are very precise. The tolerances on these tools are amazingly consistent. I’ve handled many of these over the years and they all are invariably the same, precise tools. Beware of fake, Chinese army knives. But the quality of the real ones usually stands out. Liked and subscribed. Thanks

I love RovyVon flashlights. At this size, there are none better.

That IS indeed a coolFlashlight!!! Dust and water resistant, and tiny: just what I’d need now that I’m camping in the mountains. And, speaking of Aurora, there’s an Italian fountain pen brand that goes by that name (I had one as a child, maybe it’s time I bought another… ). Thanks for this video!!!

Lots of great lights..I’m a affiliate for some and a lot are very good

The knock off ones work as well at fraction of the price from Temu for about $6. I lost my RovyVon when it fell off my keychain.

Neat little light. Looks convenient

I've been thinking of getting an explorer, mainly for the phillips and magnifying glass. What keeps me undecided is that the magnifying glass is all plastic. That has to be short lived.

I've been waiting on this video, since you first gave a sneak peek. What a cool, little flashlight. It's perfect for lighting the doorknob, whilst trying to get your key in the slot.

❤ love my flashlights. Will be adding that to my collection. Thanks

Thanks my friend!!

That is one neat torch. I'd love one of them on my key ring for autumn and winter. Great video 🙏

This may sound weird, but I feel like you would be a great person to hang out with and have a beer. Ha.

cool video thank you!

Thanks for sharing! You should check out King's Desperation. The regulators was like a weird alternative universe to Desperation. Not really a sequel but used the same characters and had some tie in's. It's one of my favourite King stories. Very different to The Regulators but very good.

This hat brings so many memories of a time when "gentleman" ( my deceased father included ) wore a hat for every ocasion. My father left this world over thirty years ago. When we finally moved from the old house to our new digs, My "hipster" nephew immediately embraced my father's hat AND refused to part with it!

Well done my Brother

I really like your channel and the way you do your Bullet journaling in the TN passport size and also the Field notes. Thanks for showing your fruits trees, etc. That is an interesting way to do the blackberries. I have always done the thornless upright, but your way looks a lot more productive.
