You write about knives, multi-tools and EDC items long enough, you start to think you’ve seen it all.

Then out of nowhere, something like Jörg Sprave’s “Instant Ronin” Double Tanto Knives appear, and you realize how very wrong you are.

This bonkers pair of blades is easily the coolest thing we’ve seen lately, but LionSteel and Vosteed played around with super steel while CJRB embiggened one of its best knives, too.

Catch up on all the latest and greatest news from Gear Patrol’s sharpest section below.

Edge & Pop Dual

This streamlined, everyday-ready multi-tool packs just the essentials, improving daily life without weighing down your pocket. The Dual includes a knife blade, phone stand and bottle opener … and that’s it. Although it is simple, the Dual’s design is high-end; the blade is made with striking, 67-layer Damascus steel, the frame is heat-treated stainless steel, the handle is constructed with either Golden Sandalwood or Ebony wood handles and dual sliders controlled by separate thumb controls, so you can cleanly deploy each function while cutting down on bulk. Small cutting tasks (like the endless opening of boxes), watching videos on your phone and opening bottles has never looked better. Edge & Pop’s campaign for the Dual is already fully funded with 15 days to go, and orders are expected to ship January 2027.

Tacray Zirconium Damascus EDC Pen

The pen is one of the most underrated EDC tools in the modern world, but Tacray’s Zirconium and Damascus clicker take is beautiful and tough enough to earn it some pocket space, even among those not yet sold on carrying one. It’s available in two distinct machined textures, but they both share some common elements. For instance, their bodies are made from solid zirconium; their pocket clips are titanium Damascus; and they’re compatible with beloved Schmidt P9000M cartridges. Is it a functional tool? Absolutely. But it’s also a stunning showpiece.
