Great Easter Cutlery // Farmer Lock Farm & Field Tool

imageThis is an amazing, simple, solid, American made knife! I am in love with this cutter! The Orange Delrin handle is perfect! The carbon steel blade looks and feels really solid. I imagine this knife being something I pass down to my son and telling a story of all the rad times I had using it. It’s funny how little things like knives can bring out sentiment like that. The more this is used the more of a story it will tell.

Details:

  • Measures 3 3/4″ closed
  • Blade is 2 3/4″ long
  • Spear Point Blade Shape
  • Blade is 1095 Carbon Steel
  • Brass Lanyard Hole
  • Made in the USA

I picked this Farmer Lock Farm & Field Tool up at Ocean Air Cycles. Really glad I nabbed one.image

You Never Lose When You Cruise

image

I had a few different events going on this weekend I probably should have dedicated my time too but I opted to cruise and relax instead. No time frames. No direction. No nothin’. Just me, my ride, and beautiful skies. This weekend was much needed.

It started with coffee outside using fresh Hobo Rouleur beans from Ocean Air Cycles and everything else fell into place.

Here are a few shots exploring different environments my local area has to offer.

Ocean Air Cycles x Swift Industries // Redefine The Randonneur Bag

OAC“The Docena Demi-Porteur bag brings contemporary design and technical fabrics to the randonneur front bag. The Docena bridges the gap between a tall rando style front bag and a full sized Porteur bag.  Designer and owner of Ocean Air Cycles, Rob Perks, pushes traditional standards by widening and adding height to traditional randonneur dimensions, and by incorporating design elements from the technical outdoor industry.

Specs: Dimensions of the main compartment are 28cm tall x 21cm deep x 30 cm wide. Designed fit 1 dozen eggs, and deep enough front to back to fit a second dozen as needed.

Outstanding Features: External u-lock pocket, internal partitioning panel, roll closure front access opening, top flap with vinyl map window allows touch activation of smart device screens.

Small batch production: The Docena Demi Porteur Bag is sewn by Swift Industries exclusively for Ocean Air Cycles. Martina Brimmer, lead designer and owner of Swift Industries, worked closely with Perks to draft the highest quality, lightweight rando bag on the market. Swift Industries is recognized within the bicycle industry for expert design and small scale in-house production.

Ordering: Preorder live from September 2nd to September 20th, 2014. Limited to 15 piece batch.” – Ocean Air Cycles
