Sliced Bread Notebooks

Are these notebooks the greatest thing since sliced bread? We don't know. You can't throw a few pieces of cajun turkey and a slice of cheddar on them for lunch, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. In case the name didn't give it away, this is a package of notebooks (twelve to be exact) designed to look like individual ... continue reading

Travelteq Pencil Holder

The last time we had anything that stored pencils in it, it was a tin case emblazoned with Batman, and not the black clad Dark Knight, no, we're talking blue and gray garb.

Code Cards

If you spend your days hunched over a keyboard like a code writing Quasimodo, you probably have little contact with the outside world. This isn't good.

There are a few things you need to know about these Atoma notebooks from Belgium. First, everything is in German which, while confusing, makes them even cooler in our opinion.

Armed Notebook – Nunchucks

Yes, our first love of nunchucks came from a cartoon turtle (see: Michelangelo), but we’ve gained more of an appreciation for the weapon after years of watching Bruce Lee and martial arts movies.

Magic 8 Ball Pen

Pens are cool. Magic 8-Balls are cool. Naturally, combining the two is a fantastic idea. Which is, obviously, what this pen is all about. Is that third Jager bomb going to end up haunting me later? "Without a Doubt." Will I finally win the Mega Millions? "Dude, No Way." "Not For A Million Dollars." If you think about ... continue reading

PHX-1 Design Tool Set

We've said it before and we'll say it again--everything is cooler when it's housed in stainless. Drinks, appliances and even pens are prettier, more fun to use and probably even more efficient when their clad in the shiny stuff.
