NYC’s War on Knives

Jun 21, 2010 Stuart 4 Comments

The other day I read that sporting goods and home improvement stores were being forced to contribute substantial resources to some type of “fund” because of the types of knives they were selling. Now, it looks like the Manhattan DA is going on a miseducated spree confiscating “illegal” knives at Home Depot and other stores.

Daily Deal – Black & Decker Ready Wrench

Jun 16, 2010 Stuart 4 Comments

We’ve commented about Black & Decker’s Ready Wrench before, and we’re not huge fans of it. 16 metric and SAE socket wrench sizes in 8 sockets? That just doesn’t add up! In any case, the Ready Wrench dropped in price to below $20. Despite our disdain for it, the Ready Wrench seems to be decent for infrequent uses, […]

C.H. Hanson Precision Ball Level Durability Update

Jun 14, 2010 Stuart 9 Comments

We reviewed C.H. Hanson’s Precision Ball Level a few months ago, and have used it a few times since then. Thus far, the ball level seems to be in great shape. However, as mentioned in comments to the review, the levels on the shelves at local home improvement retailers (mainly Lowes) are in terrible shape, with rubbed-off crosshairs. […]
