It all started in 2001 with a simple but powerful idea. Frustrated with heavy vacuum bottles and clunky stoves, Jetboil founders Dwight Aspinwall and Perry Dowst set out to make outdoor cooking easier.
They discovered that the secret to a fast and friendly design lies in increasing heat transfer efficiency. Alternating between lab and mountains, a series of designs were subjected to intense experimental and field testing. The result is a series of products as reliable as they are remarkable; as usable as they are unique.
Jetboil cooking systems are manufactured in the shadow of New Hampshire’s White Mountains, home of the most extreme weather in the world.

 KERO FÖRSÄLJNING AB
The KERO company has a long and solid history. Yrjö Kero founded the company in 1929 together with Karl Wälivaara and made it his life’s mission to create the thriving company that developed into the still-thriving company culture in the small village of Sattajärvi, 20 kilometres south of Pajala in Sweden’s far north.
Yrjö started the business with a tannery in 1929 and expanded it with a shoemaking section in the 1950s. In 2005 the company was divided into two parts, the tanning operations now in Kero Leather AB, and shoemaking and production in Kero AB.
Today Kero AB is owned by three related owners from three different families. Despite the colourful history of the tannery and shoemakers, the company has never stopped running nor has it ever stopped producing peaked shoes.
The owners of Kero AB are Emma Kero, Erik Kero, Per-Enok Kero.

 Nanok Heritage - Nanok (Inuit for polar bear)
The story of marvellous adaptations achieved by the Polar Bear to its Arctic surroundings is well documented. The thick winter coat and thick layer of fat makes him perfectly adapted to his Arctic surroundings without reducing his capability as a hunter. He moves long distances both land and ice as well as in water. And he can survive long periods without food. The Nanok” is truly an unsupported traveller.
More than a thousand years ago Norwegians populated Iceland, the west coast of Greenland and north east coast of America (Newfoundland). They also had trade routes as far south as Constantinople and far into Russia. They travelled in small open boats navigating over large distances, having a minimum of equipment and supplies.
This heritage has had strong influence on how Norwegians equip themselves for the great outdoors. In 1888 the Norwegian explorer Fridtjof Nansen crossed Greenland bringing a very innovative product that we would call a sleeping bag. This product developed by drawing on the experience gained through its heavy use in polar exploration in the second half of the 19th century, until it became a commercial product in Norway with the introduction of down filling in the year 1900.
Another arctic explorer, Roald Amundsen, also borrowed techniques and ideas for equipment from the people living in the arctic and improved these by using a combination of traditional and modern materials on his expedition which reached the South Pole and back safely in 1911.
In the second half of the 21st century new challenges appeared, setting new boundaries. Expeditions reached both the North Pole and the South Pole unsupported; the Antarctic continent and the Arctic ice shelf were both crossed solo and unsupported.
This is our heritage. It permeates our philosophy and our endeavour to design and produce the best possible equipment so that you can enjoy your outdoor life to the maximum.
Nanok's vision
"To create products that achieves the best possible outdoor experience."
Design mission
"Our products shall be unique in design and features and with added user benefits. Our mission is to add value to the product through design elements and technical solutions and to maintain competitive prices for the consumers"

 About Spyderco
Greetings from Golden, Colorado.
Since starting Spyderco we've been told our knives are different, peculiar, even out there. All true. Thinking beyond established knife industry barriers allowed us to introduce new and radical innovations to the knife culture including: One-hand opening, serrations on a folder and a clip to attach a knife to a pocket. We didn't go into business to rake in a mountain of dough we're here for more selfish reasons- indulging our passion for creating knives. Spyderco is definitely out of the norm in the knife industry in our dedication to researching and developing fresh, improved and better performing materials all with function and reliability being key. Someone once said to Sal Glesser, Spyderco's owner, "You must design in the dark because your knives look so strange." True again. Our recognizable appearance is a result of designing ergonomic functional tools rather than applying lipstick and nylons to a pocketknife. We may look curious, homely, whatever, but we'll never be called unusable or undependable. Making knives that consistently deliver reliable high-performance requires an ongoing commitment to testing. In our million-dollar testing facility we examine edge retention with a CATRA machine, look for rust development with Q-FOG, check the force needed to open and close a knife. We also repeatedly test for stress, wear, optimal heat-treating and actively search for higher quality, performance enhancing steels and materials. As a customer you probably don't think about this, or much care, but it allows us to put forth a promise. When you purchase a Spyderco you are buying a high-quality reliable cutting tool designed and manufactured for peak performance and ergonomic comfort. Those Who Know Carry Spyderco.
Respectfully Yours,
The Glesser Family and the Spyderco Crew

The Wenger Swiss Army Knife. It dates back to 1886 when the Swiss Army decided to equip every soldier with a regulation single-blade folding knife. In 1889 a new rifle was introduced. To take apart the rifle a screwdriver was needed. So the decision was made to create a multi-purpose tool incorporating a knife, screwdriver, reamer and can opener.
At that time, the cutlery industry in Switzerland was well established but incapable of mass production. So the knives were made in Solingen, Germany. However, a Swiss cutler soon established a knife manufacturing company and began to make army knives. Shortly after in 1893 at Courtetelle in Delémont Valley, the second industrial cutlery of Switzerland, Paul Boechat & Cie - and the future Wenger S.A. - received a contract from the Swiss Army to produce knives.
