Thanks for the tip Izzy. I appreciate it.

I hadn't seen the leatherman crunch before, it's a vise-grip style unit. I wouldn't buy it, but, there you are.

Ron hoods new mega knife, marketed thru buck knives, was surprisingly light. I loved it. I'd like to get on for myself.

Also great news, the buck distributor told me that spring assist is legal in texas as of last year. She is sending me the link to the legislation. I'll post it when I get it.

There was a lot of gun brands there, but bad news, I'm mostly interested in survival gear. I wad impressed by aimpoints sights and intro dealer program.

I thought the product that lets you skin a deer with your pickup truck was clever, although not innovative.
