The Handy Little Leatherman Squirt

I’ve owned four Leatherman’s (including the original version made over 35 years ago) but this little Leatherman Squirt is easily the most handy, since it lives on my keychain. For me, it’s more useful than the pricier Leatherman Micra because it has needle nose pliers with built-in wire cutters too, which I use a lot. Plus, it has a better two-sided file. Small, light, perfect for Amazon boxes, filing your fingernails or defusing a bomb (always cut the red wire!) Perfect stocking stuffer for a man or woman. All Leatherman tools come with a 25 year warranty. Built in Portland, Oregon. Find it at Amazon…

Our Favorite American Made Tweezers

Our Favorite American Made Tweezers

I’m impressed with the ergonomics and pinpoint precision of these little tweezers. As a woodworker, I get lots of splinters and these perform perfectly! Uncle Bill’s Sliver Gripper’s small size and wider width let me grip close with accuracy – an intuitive tool that just feels right. Good for small work like tick removal, sewing or grabbing a brush hair out of a paint project. They click into a tip guard making them perfect to keep on a keychain. Made from high quality spring-tempered American stainless steel. Lifetime guarantee. Grab a three pack and give them for stocking stuffers. Find it at Amazon…

Better Than Wd40

Unseize Like The Pros With Kroil

Stuck bolt, seized shaft, rusty metal part? For years I’ve applied WD40, PB Blaster or Liquid Wrench with hit or miss results. This month, I tried Kroil (formerly called Aerokroil) and it is far superior, in fact it’s a bit amazing in its abilities. I work on boat engines, chainsaws and repair our John Deere tractors. Recently, I had a frozen muffler nut that would not budge until I hit it with Kroil. Worked! Everyone from aircraft mechanics to plumbers gives it 5 stars – because it works like no other. Also lubricates, prevents rust, removes corrosion and sticky stuff too. Proudly made in Nashville, Tennessee since 1939. Editor’s Choice. Find it at Amazon…
