Lately, Leatherman’s celebrated its 25th anniversary by unveiling Argentum collection detailing the modest $12,000 Acanto, $40,000 Dorado, all impressive creations by Argentinean artist Adrian Pollarols.

A tight upright position keeps me alert and on the job and also I don’t see a single reason spilling dollars over any such masterpiece that takes me off from doing the needful.

Whilst last year, John unveiled a refrigerator-based wine cellar and today we are enthralled to witness its “Ultimate Kitchen Combo.” The integrated 4-in-1 system houses an electric oven, a steam oven, a wall-mounted coffee machine plus a 19-inch LCD TV.
