The Coolest Pieces of Gear We Tested This Week

If you’re in the market for a new, ultra-dependable and capable every-day tool, then you need to check out the Trask from CRKT. Our favorite part about this knife is its simplicity. No unnecessary bells or whistles, just what you need—without losing sight of handsome design.

The blade is made from D2 steel for outstanding durability, and the handle is built from superb glass-reinforced nylon. This whole package is lightweight and tough-as-nails. It has a really nice low-profile with a very well-designed pocket clip for ease of carry. But one of our favrotie things about this knife is its remarkably smooth opening design: The IKBS ball bearing pivot deploys the blade in one of the finest fashions we’ve ever seen. It really a pleasure to use on a daily basis, and it hasn’t let us down yet.—Jon Perino, senior editor
