Altama Hoplite Boot Review They say wisdom comes with age. I‘m not sure who “they” are, but I have to question their logic. Rather than getting smarter with age, I think we are just more willing to admit our ignorance. If you want to impress someone, don’t tell them what you think. Ask for their opinion.

SOG Spec Elite Mini

For those of you looking for that perfect mini every day carry, Woodsmonkey submits one of SOG’s latest offerings, the Spec Elite Mini.

This little knife is awesome! SOG has hit the bull’s-eye with this little gem. A hard working, easy carrying, good looking blade is something that most of us look for in an EDC, and boy does it fit my needs. I’ve used the Spec Elite Mini for a month now, with another eleven months to go (for our usual yearlong SOG reviews on the Monkey), and I’m looking forward to every minute of it. For ease of reading, I’m going to refer to it as the Mini or Elite from this point forward.
