Share your single coolest gadget/gear with us and if possible a picture too:D

I unfortunately do not know how to post a picture here and I do not have a digital camera so I don't have any pics unfortunately.

My single coolest gadget/gear must be my Victorinox Swisschamp with large survival kit in dual leather sheath. I have others, but this is my favourite of the lot.

This is the one:

That would have to be my digital camera. It is so cool to be able to take a picture, and under a minute later, have someone clear across the World see that picture.:).
 
My coolest gadget would probably have to be my new SOG TiNi Powerlock.

I don't think that I'll ever have to buy another multitool again!!! :D ;) :D

The handiest gadget I have, that I use every day for work, is my Surefire E2. It is one of my all-time favorite "things." I also just got an Inova X-5, and that light is pretty cool, too.

I love the overall look and quality of my Swiss Army Officer's Blue dial watch. A great time piece for only $206.

My Yamaha 5-disc changer has not given me a speck of trouble in the 5 years I have had it. It's been a great home CD system; not to mention the Eclipse system in my car.
 
Coolest gadget I have is a flashlight which my dad got when we were in South Africa still. One side was a regular flashlight and the other side was like a stun gun with two little steel prongs sticking out of it. Depending on how big you are that thing could stun the **** out of you.

My grandfather tried it on his bulldog and it knocked him out for a few seconds.
 
Assuming we are NOT referring to knives, I'd say probably my E2e....then my M2...oh yeah, my Arc AAA (CPF edition)...then My WTB Diver...

I guess I like lights. :)
 
My Casio Tripple sensor watch... Altimiter, Compass, barametric pressure, stop watch, alarms, temperature... and tells time too!

Or my Motorolla 6310 Frs radio. Comunication is important to me. It gets use in the car, at home, at events... The radio has the 14 channels and subcodes, clock, alarm, FM radio and weather channels with alert. It is also nice to know that so many people have these ( I have 5)that if the phone service or power was ever interupted most of the neighbors could keep in touch by planning to go to a preset channel.

The end of CB ( I have 2) is near but then again there are my Ham radios(2 here also)! I guess thats how I got the nickname.

Or maybe it's my Inova x-5....

well, the one thats saved me the most money is my valentine one radar detector, they run about $400, but if ya drive a corvette they are worth every penny, i hunt in south tx a lot, and it will pick up radar sometimes several minutes before ya see the officer, ya will think 'man this is falsing.....' and then, up ahead, ya see a cop...definatly the A1 best radar detector around, imho. they also have a arrow which points to the source its detecting (ie left/right/front/back) and also lists the number of sources (ie if 1 cop is behind ya, and one in front it will show 2 sources, front and back...hard to explain but WORKS!!!) if it goes off in K or Ka ya better sloooow down ASAP.........my wife cant believe i dont get tons of tickets, i drive too fast lol, but havent gotten one in 2 yrs (knock on wood) and the cop paced me at night, not fair!!

another favorite is my M3 surefire, a heck of a light, makes my Z2 look dim, and looks neat as all get out also imho.....

and of course i cant forget my rolex GMT master 11 stainless w/oyster band and burgundy/black bezel, its almost 2 yrs old now...in october!!!

Well, my entry isnt exactly a gadget, but, since i believe the spirit of this thread is to show off your favorite possessions, which have great cool factor, i submit my 3 oz. Autrailian gold nugget. Natural gold nuggets are far rarer than rubies, diamonds or emeralds, especially very large ones as this one is. My nugget has the best color, hence very high purity, about 23k, a really neat shape to it, like a dolphin or whale and among many very cool possessions of mine, it remains one of my favorites. Heres the picture:

Here is a picture of another one of my favorite possessions, its a slice of a Pallasite meteorite. These are very neat because theyre a type of meteorite which has clear crystals mixed into the iron, which gives it a swiss cheese sort of look. This chunk of the original matter the universe sprang from is far older than our planet, well over 4 billion years old. Heres the pic:

And, finally, something that was once mine, but i sold it last year for $5,000. It is a VERY rare species of Trilobite, a perfectly preserved 6.5" creature, naturally displayed on the rock in which it died, a creature that existed 500 million years ago, about 5 times as old as the dinosaurs. Trilobites were the first sophisticated life form on the planet, and the first to have eyes.

Wish i could have kept it, oh well, still have the nugget and meteorite though! :)

I do have more interesting stuff, but im sure youre all bored by now, so ill leave it for another time. :)
 
I think BAE won!!! I am drooling right now, the only thing cooler than knives are cars.
BAE How many miles to the gallon does that get? :) I bet that pretty much blows away any car on the street.
The only thing cooler than that gadget would be a .50 cal browning mounted on the roof.
