Luxury Rumble
Who: Flowmaster
What: Force II cat-back exhaust for '12-'13 Escalade 6.2L with dual exhaust
Why: We know why Cadillac gave the Escalade a quiet, reserved exhaust note, but in our opinion, the Caddy's 403hp 6.2L V-8 deserves a little more rumble. Flowmaster has the solution with their dual 3-inch after-cat system, and it delivers their signature sound with a factory look and minimal drone.

American-Made Blade
Who: Benchmade
What: 300 Axis Flipper folding knife
Why: This clever blade opens three ways: with the lever-action "flipper," with the thumb stud, or by pulling back the patented AXIS lock slider. Also, the textured grips have a natural wood look, but they're actually a highly compressed fiberglass that's extremely durable and lightweight. Best of all, it's made right here in the USA.
