This is the sharpest card in your wallet the Cardsharp4

This is the sharpest card in your wallet the Cardsharp4

I will admit it, I am not the knife aficionado I was once. I used to love knives, all sort of knives and while I still do have the odd or unusual knife around, I have mainly limited myself to the utilitarian variety of knife (Swiss Army type, Leatherman) but I do own a Cardsharp folding credit card knife. While you may have seen a review here by Julie on the Cardsharp, there have been a few newer versions since. The Cardsharp4, Ian Sinclair's latest version of this folding credit card knife, is out and it is a whole different animal this time.

All-wheel drive vehicle sales flourishing

All-wheel drive vehicle sales flourishing

As the market for new vehicles continues to improve and crossover and pickup sales have caught fire, it's perhaps no surprise that the sales of all-wheel-drive (and four-wheel-drive) vehicles are also on the rise. Using data provided by Polk, The Detroit News points out that nearly one-third (31.3 percent) of all new vehicles sold this year through September were equipped with either all- or four-wheel drive. This is up from slightly more than a quarter (26.3 percent) during the same nine-month span of 2008.

Android Device Manager app hits the Google Play Store

Android Device Manager app hits the Google Play Store

When Google launched the Android Device Manager, many users rejoiced. Finally, a built-in solution for finding, locking and securing lost devices. It was great, but the fact that you had to head to a web browser to do anything with it was a bit of a turn-off. A simple bookmark to the device manager site had us techies on our way, but your average Joe probably didn't care to find and remember the URL.
That should all change with the release of a new app today. Google has released an Android Device Manager app in the Play Store, giving folks a clean, fast and easy interface for locating, wiping, and locking their device from afar.

Porsche wants you to 3D print your own Cayman

Porsche wants you to 3D print your own Cayman

Have you got access to a 3D printer. Well lucky you, because as we're rapidly learning, the possibilities are virtually endless. And if your tastes lean towards the automotive (as we'd assume they do if you're reading this page), we've got good news. Porsche has just released 3D printing data for the Cayman S so you can three-dimensionally print out your own and customize to your heart's content. Now Porsche hasn't specified just to what scale the data will allow you to print your Cayman, but we have a feeling that'd mostly be limited by the size of the printer at your disposal.

Gift ideas - Five products for EDC (every day carry) fans

Are you still trying to figure out what to get for that person on your gift list who seems to have everything. Here are five ideas that are sure to please. I own four of the five items myself (I don't have the Titanium escape ring), so I can vouch for the fact that they are useful and enjoyable to use. 1. Keyport Slide 2.0 (price $29 + key blanks) – I love this keychain alternative that let's me keep my keys neat, tidy, and compact. The Keyport has 6 slots that can be used for keys and / or little tools like a flashlight, bottle opener, and a USB flash drive.

Samsung Co-CEO Acknowledges Possibility Of Flexible TVs

Samsung Co-CEO Acknowledges Possibility Of Flexible TVs

When it comes to flexible display technology, companies such as Samsung probably come to mind. This is thanks to the South Korean tech giant's demonstration of the Youm technology earlier this year, not to mention the release of the Galaxy Round, the world's first smartphone with a flexible display. Recently there have also been talks about a flexible tablet, and also the possibility of a flexible OLED TV which has been rumored for unveiling at CES 2014. Well the semi-good news is that the idea of a flexible OLED TV might not be so far-fetched, as Samsung's co-CEO, Boo-keun Yoon, acknowledged that devices like that could be a possibility.
