Introducing: Jack Wolfskin Atmos jacket
The last time we took a look at Jack Wolfskin, we had one of their jackets in (along with a t-shirt). In that review, we noted that the shell was a great layer, but it wasn’t that insulated in and…
Now Funding: Dust Biters
When it comes to crowd-funded games, they tend towards the massive. In other words, it’s a giant box (or you’ll wish you had a giant box) with a zillion tokens, a 50-page rulebook, and the requirement of a table large…

Now Funding: the Keychron K12
We like mechanical keyboards here at Knapsack. While I didn’t get it at first, once I started using one, I came around. I mean, it just feels like you’re GETTING THINGS DONE (TM) when you use a mechanical keyboard. I’m…
Now Funding: So, You’ve Been Eaten
Of the many things that have taken off with crowdfunding, I think board games is one area that has really bloomed. There have been a tremendous number of innovative and interesting games that large publishers just might not take a…
Now Funding: Claw 2.0
Amongst the many types of “gadgets” that we like, the ones that fall into the category of “Every Day Carry”, or EDC, can be among some of the most interesting. They tend to be simpler mechanical items (think of a…
