Advertise on podcast: Outdoor Gear Podcast

In this episode, I tell you about the outdoor companies I have found making gear in Vermont. I know this is not anywhere close to a complete list so please send me an email [email protected] with the companies you know of that I don't have on the list, for any state. Were are trying to find all the companies in the USA making gear for hiking, camping, fishing, hunting, skiing, paddle sports, surfing, climbing, thru-hiking, fly fishing, bow hunting, overlanding, mountaineering, boating, bass fishing, and everything else I failed to mention.  Please support us by subscribing to the podcast and sharing with your friends. Also, check out the website at USA Gear Report to see hundreds of companies that are Made in the USA. These are often brands that you will not find in REI or mentioned in Outside, but they are great people making awesome gear. 

Today we start the made in USA series and Washington is first on the list. Many great companies but if you know more, please email me.

We are creating a series about gear made in USA. More details coming soon

Dumping out my Every Day Carry Emergency bag that goes from vehicle to vehicle with me. Not a bugout bag (BOB) or long term survival gear, but a simple small go bag with items to help me out when a vehicle break down or something similar occurs. This is great to have when riding with other people that may not have any type of emergency preparedness gear with them Winners for the first giveaway are announced and we talk about what I am giving away next.     

In this episode, I review the 3 best selling tactical knives I found on Amazon. I am not sure that they are good choices for hunting, fishing, or camping, but enough people have bought them to turn them into bestsellers. If you would like to win one of these knives to try for yourself, please let us a rating wherever you listen to podcasts and you will be entered. Also, you can follow us on Instagram @geartesters for more entries.  I will be giving away all the gear we test so be sure to subscribe as I will announce winners on the podcast each time there is a drawing.
