  • I have one of those floating around here too, the thing I didn't care for with that model was that the blade doesn't stick out very far. The one-handed action is nice tho. The one I carry every day is this one https://a.co/d/29pk73c but it's not currently available.

  • Slider style EDC utility knife. Small, lightweight, and because the blades are cheap and easily replaced you can abuse them - cut on concrete, pry stuff, if it breaks the blade, not a big deal.

    https://a.co/d/gouJDKV typical example but there's lots of different ones.

    Bonus - these blades are more expensive than most, but still cheap and last a lot longer than standard blades do https://a.co/d/bQj77Qz

  • They don't get anything out of calling him, so he doesn't understand why they'd do it. Someone else told him it's a nice thing to do and that acknowledging it is helpful to him.

  • Your pocket bomb doesn't have any actual bomb in it (unless the Israelis put some there, like the Hezbollah pagers and walkie-talkies.) They can burn fast, but afaik they don't explode, just like gunpowder doesn't explode. It burns very fast. On the other hand, they can produce gas and burst the battery pack, which might be considered an explosion, but I'd argue it's not actually one.

    Which isn't going to make someone who has it happen in their pocket feel any better.

    If I have my physics wrong, please correct me, I'm not a lithium bomb expert :)

  • https://www.helmet.beam.vt.edu/equestrian-helmet-ratings.html

    This is a good place to start for helmets. They have the same sort of ratings for different sports so if nothing in the equestrian list looks good, you should check the bicycle list. Note that it's not necessarily current for everything but it's a good starting point.

  • When a person has nothing left to lose they will take chances that otherwise they wouldn't. If we weren't living in a corporatocracy, perhaps there'd be no demand for this sort of thing, but we do and there is.
