We are in a unique time in our history where both the old ways and the new ways are having to integrate for out-of-the-box thinking. That’s exactly the type of thinking that Krudo used to design KOMPENSATOR. The back end of the pen is fashioned after the look of the compensator you might see on a firearm. It is complete with 2 pen tips giving you the ability to sign off with flare. We also just like the idea that the word “pen” is in the KOMPENSATOR name. Made from 6061-T6 Aluminum, with a Titanium clip, KOMPENSATOR is the elegant solution to your EDC needs. Interchangeable fine tips for the roller point and for the ink nib provide both a no-nonsense tool and creative script options. Take this tool with you to the board meeting for notes, the grocery store for marking off your list, keep it within reach at your desk or in your pocket protector. With a slightly over ½” diameter, black, anodized body, KOMPENSATOR will complement your EDC collection and keep you at the ready. It’s even ideal as a gift! -

SNAG SM - Non-Serial Numbered or Serial Numbered
We’ve all seen many things since 2020; the ups, the downs and the sideways. And if you are anything like us, you have only become more determined, more resilient and more resourceful. Being alive in this day and age calls for us to be vigilant, aware and educated in what matters. SNAG SM emerges from this time of great transition, but it remains solid in its focus. SNAG SM is a legacy design, ergonomic and sharp as $#!+ while remaining true to Louis Krudo’s original SNAG Folder, first designed over 20 years ago and brought into 1st production in 2008, 15 years ago. Louis Krudo is a journeyman. He is highly educated in many forms of martial arts. He didn’t do it for the colorful belts, certificates or accolades. Whether it is cage fighting in South America or teaching internationally or domestically, the art is simply who he is. The SNAG line up was born out of decades of acquired knowledge. SNAG SM is the latest iteration of the SNAG family tree, but yet is a stand-alone in its field. -

The LIGHTS OUT line evokes the retrofuturistic inventions of the likes of H.G. Wells and Jules Verne. Technologies hardly believable in days past are now commonplace in our modern era.

A techy and a sci-fi nerd at heart, he brings to life the old-style light switches, from his childhood, that adorn LIGHTS OUT. You will love the heft and feel of these substantial, .925 Silver pieces. The ring will catch the eye of anyone you come in contact with, for sure. The pendant is that statement piece that says you mean business. Tie the bead onto your bottle opener, your keys, your folder, or anything you carry daily for that added flair or as a conversation piece.
