We’re not suggesting things will go south next time you head into the wilderness. We’re just saying this Tactical Survival Camping Car Tool Kit is always good to have on hand—just in case. Great for campsites, but also for stashing in the trunk or glovebox of your car. Includes a 10-in-1 pocket knife; a 7-in-1 multifunction card tool; and a 1000-lumen rechargeable, zoomable LED flashlight. Knife is Swiss Army-ish, red and 4" long with a corkscrew, saw, can opener, file, scissors and more; card tool is flat, like a credit card, and includes box, letter, bottle and can openers, a ruler, hex drivers and a cell phone stand; and the flashlight is 7-1/2" long x 1" dia, black with a pocket clip. Knife comes with a belt pouch, black and approx 8-1/4” x 5” x 2-14”, and the card tool comes with a black protective sleeve. Doug took his set camping and everybody else wanted one.

..my sweet engravable you. Safeguard your stuff with this little battery-powered engraving pen. The 1/16” dia head vibrates to let you inscribe your ID on stuff  that might otherwise wander off. Surprisingly effective for a lightweight tool. Measures approx 6” long x 1” dia and works on metal, wood, glass, plastic, leather and more. Runs on (2) included “AA” batteries.

This nicely made 13-piece file set has a dozen diamond-encrusted files at 2, 4 and 6mm wide x 1-3/16” long with 120, 180, 300, and 400 grit surfaces. Includes a colleted 4-3/4” long aluminum handle, Go rub something the right way.

And it’s cute. Just 4-3/8" long with a pocket clip, it looks like a pen but it has (8) driver bits stored in the barrel. The 5/32” hex bits include slotted 2mm, 3mm, Phillips #1, #2  and torque T5, T6, T7 and T8. We’ll pick one in red, black or blue, because who cares? In assorted colors of red, blue or black. 

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!!! Mystery boxes of stuff like what you see in the catalog. Maybe we had a little left but not enough to continue the listing. Maybe we only got a few as part of an odd lot. Maybe we lost some, and just found them in the warehouse. You will get items which originally listed for at least $25.00 total in our catalog (or would have, if we had enough). You pick. The “electro-mechanical” box has things like motors, switches, hardware and components that are useful parts but want to be worked into something bigger. The “consumer” box has more ready-to-go type items, and things that don’t have as technical a flavor, like bottles, toys, books, and giant rubber bands. The fun is in the mystery and surprise. Perfect if you don’t know what to give Aunt Maude and Uncle Ned, or if you can’t decide how to bring your order up to the minimum. Every couple of months the contents will keep changing, so even if you have gotten a box before, feel free to order again! (Please note: Ordering multiple boxes at the same time will result in duplicate items.)

This rounded 2” karambit-style blade, called the Hideaway Knife, comes in a quick-release, hard shell sheath that’s olive tan to match the hand grip. Blade looks like the talon of an eagle, and you can hang it (in the sheath), around your neck (black beaded necklace included), or stuff it into your boot or pocket.

Maybe a little eclectic for an artist with a single style, but perfect for one who's still searching for himself. Or for any hobbyist. There are no (2) brushes exactly alike in this set of (15). They all have natural bristles, color-coded wooden handles and metal ferrules, but they range from fairly fine to 1/2" wide, and 7" to 10" long. There are at least (3) different kinds of bristles, and they are round, blunt and pointed. A nice variety, and a very nice quality for this price.

Works on all of them except the ones stuck to your eyeballs. Corrosion-Be-Gone is a gel made to remove the schmutz from all types of battery terminals, circuit boards and contacts, on everything from cars to computer boards. Our each is a 0.3 oz jar.

These compact scissors from Tolsen Tools are technically Electrician’s Scissors, designed for the telecom and electrical applications. That means cutting through your stuff is a snap. Scissors are 5-1/2” long overall, and their 2" long stainless steel blades are serrated to grip cables and wires. But a copywriter just used them to slice through thick cardboard like it was butter. Big, round finger grips are comfortable, too. These scissors are a joy to scissor.

Our each is a package of (2) steel tech rulers. One is 6” x 1/32” for the first 2-1/2” then 1/64” for the next 1/2” then 1/16” for the last 3”. The other is 150mm x 0.5mm. Both have sliding markers/pocket clips, and both have mm:inch tables on the reverse side. You’ll need excellent eyesight.

They don’t give them away in bars anymore, so you’d better buy this Matchstick Fire Starter. Has a 1-1/2" x 1-1/8" x 3/8" flint housing and a 1” striker with a small cotton wick around the end. Fill it with a little lighter fluid and you’re ready to start something. Includes a 1/2” clip to hang it on something. A must for camping.

This isn't a book, but it's definitely book-ish. Looks like a leather-bound volume from the Bodleian but it's just a little wooden box, approx 8-1/2" x 5" x 2" (7" x 3-7/8" x 1-5/8" inside) that's perfect for stashing the jewels, cash, or whatever you need to stash in plain sight on the shelves.

Hey, nothing wrong with a big ol’ flashlight, but sometimes you need one that you can easily carry in your pocket or slip into a bag and still have room for a bunch of other stuff. This mini LED flashlight is approx 4” long, with an on-off push button on the end, and a knurled metal handle. Comes in silver for the most part, but a small amount of our stock is actually blue. You’ll get the one that comes out when we reach into the box, and it won’t matter because you’ll be using it in the dark anyway. Takes (3) “AAA” batteries, included.

You know all those A.S.&S. catalog items that call for AG13 or AG10 button-cell batteries? We’ve got ya covered. Our each is a package of (10) or (100), for the bulk minder shoppers, of 1.5 volt AG13s(AKA A76s, LR44s, V13Gas, and RW82s) or AG10's (AKA 389, 390, 189, L1130, LR1130, L1131) No need to thank us, we're just doing our job.

Or just stop worrying about the line breaking. Battlecord is skinny but megatough stuff. And this one is a 50-foot length of black cord rated for 2,650 lb test. Measures 1/4” dia with a 7-strand core and is rot, mildew and UV resistant. Made in the USA for Atwood Rope.

This plated N52 14,200 gauss neodymium magnet is shaped like a miniature silver ingot, measuring 1-1/2" long x 1/2" wide x 1/8" thick. Has a big hangonability quotient, which the manufacturer claims is 15 lbs of pull, meaning it's probably closer to 13 lbs. Impressive either way for such a cute little magnet. 

These brand-spanking new 12VDC motors are made to move automobile seats but are willing to change. They spin at approx 190 rpm, draw 1.5A no load, and stall at approx 25A. Threaded shaft is at a right angle and is 4-1/8" x 7/16". Shaft thread is non-standard, so treat it as a smooth shaft and mount pulley or gear with a setscrew. Measures 5-5/8" x 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" overall, not counting the shaft, and has power terminals opposite the gearbox with (2) 1/4" mounting holes opposite the shaft. Shaft Thread 7/16"-8 ACME thread w/M6x1 LH at end

There's optical science and high school physics, and then there's making pretty colors with this little 4-1/2" x about 1" acrylic prism. It makes the same rainbows that the beveled edges on the glass in the French doors to your grandmother's living room used to make on the floor in the afternoon while she was making supper. If you had a grandmother with French doors with beveled glass, who made you supper. If not, you'd better buy this prism or you won't have anything to remember after she's gone.
