Top Gear of 2025: Our Editors’ Favorite Products
  It’s time to look back on 2025 in gear,one of the GearJunkie edit team’s favorite assignments. In the last 12 months, we tested hundreds of products selected from thousands of launches, pitches, and cold-call emails.   As with every Gear of the Year roundup, some wonderful products had to be left out to winnow everything down to 10 winners. This list...
Victorinox Adds Two Features You Never See on a Swiss Army Knife: ‘Onefold’ Review
  Changing a century-old, world-renowned form factor that sells millions of knives a year is a bold move, but that is exactly what Victorinox did with its Refined line. These tools add two things missing from classic Swiss Army Knives: a locking blade and a pocket clip.There are three tools in this new line, the simplest being the Onefold, which is...
First Drive Review: Nissan Restyles, Upgrades 2026 Pathfinder
  It’s been a tough few years for Nissan, the second-largest Japanese automaker struggling to reverse a series of setbacks that have forced it to make major cutbacks in production and employment around the world. For customers, of course, that’s just noise in the background, and they’re more likely to ask, “What have you done for me lately?”   The good news...
Perfect Ergonomics (At a Price): Kershaw Knives Pack Mule Review
  For a guy who has been collecting knives for nearly 40 years, I’m actually kind of picky about the ones I like to use. I own a lot of really cool knives, but not many are all that practical. If I’m not actively reviewing a knife and I have the freedom to choose any blade to hit the trail with...
Toyota Exec Spills Details on Scion 01 UTV Concept
  A few weeks after standing idle at the SEMA show, Toyota lit the ignition on the Scion 01 Concept at the ceremony of the updated proving grounds in Arizona.   I saw it blast down a dusty red carpet of sorts before parking under a tent. Idle again, Don Federico, Vice President of Vehicle Performance Development at Toyota, stood next to...
A $40 Beater Multi-Tool Done Right: Harbor Freight Gordon 20-in-1 Multi-Tool Review
  Harbor Freight is one of my favorite hardware stores, and I spend a considerable amount of time browsing its aisles. For a person who loves both hardware and scavenger hunts, Harbor Freight combines the two in a way Home Depot, Lowe’s, Northern Tool, and Ace Hardware could never.   Tools at Harbor Freight fall into three buckets, almost in equal measure:...
Leap From One Activity to Another: KEEN Roam Review
  Like many runners with a shoe fixation, my closet is overflowing with footwear. I have waterproof trail runners, breezy road runners, carbon-plated racers, and nimble, breathable mountain scalers.   But what about shoes for liminal terrain — those runs that take you from your front door along pavement to a wooded trail to a gravel path and back again? For that...
Walmart Makes the Best Value in Knives Even Better: Ozark Trail Tanto Review
  The first Ozark Trail knife was an experiment in limbo pricing (how low can you go?) and sourcing real knife components. This knife, which has no official name — hence the Ozark Trail Tanto — is not just a daring loss leader, it is also an outstanding and cohesive piece, a knife with real chops.   At $20 plus tax, you...
The Reiff Knives Circadian Is the American-Made Muscle Car of Outdoor Knives
  I’m all about carrying a belt knife out hiking and exploring most of the time. In the colder months, I wear one all the time. I’m not sure if it’s because I subconsciously think I will need to fend for myself against a legion of ice monsters destined to take over our planet, or not. However, consciously, I know that...
The Knife That Named a Category: Buck 110 Folding Hunter Knife Review
  Weber, Leatherman, Buck. Anytime I come across a storied brand that never surrendered its reputation for manufacturing quality to bean counters’ “death by a thousand cuts,” my heart warms by a few degrees.   You’ve heard the term “Buck knife” before. It’s a household name, after all. Buck is the name of the company, founded in 1947, and the Buck 110...
‘Tacticool’ Meets Classic Upland Style: Chief Upland Over/Under Vest Review
  Im not a tactical gun bro. I think tactical gear is over-the-top, and doesnt fit my style despite having spent over 7 years in the Army. Im more of the old school, classic look type of guy. Think tweed jacket, bamboo fly rod, and walking the Scottish countryside with an over-under vibe. Yeah, its snobby, but I like what I...
2025 GearJunkie Adventure Vehicle of the Year Awards
  The trend toward more rugged and adventure-ready vehicles straight from the factory continued in 2025. While more refreshes hit the market this past year than truly new vehicles, there are a few standouts worthy of a 2025 GearJunkie Adventure Vehicle of the Year Award.   As usual, we got behind the wheel of lots of new vehicles andreviewed many of them....
