The Titanium Utility Ring is not a wedding ring per se. But since I don’t like man rings and the only rings I’ve ever worn are three wedding rings, it is a wedding ring to me. I mean, if I had to marry a fourth time, I’d definitely get this thing. It’s made of titanium…

Lightweight Carbon Fiber Axe Is More Of an Artistic Masterpiece Than a Tool

Who says artists can only use paints and canvas, or musical instruments, to craft a masterpiece?

Measuring a mere 5/8ths of an inch thick and weighing just 14 ounces, Heizer Defense claims its new DoubleTap tactical pocket pistol is the smallest and lightest .45 caliber handgun you can buy.

X-rays reveal why the Moon has no volcanoes

The Moon is an almost completely still world, its eternal peace and quiet disrupted only by the occasional meteor or Apollo astronaut. But we now know there’s plenty of magma inside the Moon. So why are there no volcanoes? That’s the question researchers at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) set out to answer. They…

These Keychain Multi-Tools Prove That Nothing Is Cooler Than Milled Titanium

I couldn’t tell you why, but CNC-milled titanium seems to invoke the same testosterone pumping response as watching a grizzly bear fight a bald eagle. So whatever the reason is, I get the same feeling from the Prybar and Barbar titanium keychain-tools from Anso Knives. At first glance I’m not quite sure what to make…

Man’s Titanium Nose Saves Him from Shooting Spree

Yesterday’s awful Michigan shooting spree left seven people dead. Robert Poore wasn’t one of them—despite being shot directly in the face. Why? The bullet hit his artificial nose and bounced off. The titanium plate embedded in Poore’s face was a vestige of childhood cancer treatment—a harrowing portion of his life, I’m sure, but one that…

MLB Players Fall for Titanium Necklace Con

Titanium necklaces are a clever con for unsuspecting MLB players as well as avid sports fans.

Phiten, a company behind many of these magical necklaces, provides questionable evidence to substantiate its…
