I'm getting married pretty soon....I need some good ideas for gifts for my best man and groomsmen.  I don't want to just get them a cheap glass or a flask with their initials engraved in it like everyone else gives their groomsmen.  I want something unique and different, but not super expensive.  These guys are all outdoor guys....into shooting, hunting, fishing......

Any good ideas?

Pick a benchmade, get them laser marked.

Lots of options to choose from and they'll see some use from your groomsmen.

Laser marking? Where would I go for that? Some place local, or would I need to send them out to be done?

Benchmade can do it for you. So can knifeworks.com.

Flashlights, knives and duffel bags are things that will last a long time, and get tons of use. You could get a bunch of Spyderco Tenacious ($30) knives and have them engraved, Fenix or 4Sevens lights, or Cabelas bags. All would make awesome gifts.

I did knives for each, 13ish years ago. I still carry mine in rotation and went partying with a couple of them a while back and they were using them as money clips, said they always had them in their pockets.

these are what I gave to them, had them engraved:

I did black Swiss Army knives with their initials on the main blade.



That was 20+ years ago, but well received. ( I think )

I have one of these and think its pretty cool. An enclosed ecosystem that has a couple living shrimp inside. You do not have to feed them or anything, they only need light from a light bulb, so you can put them on a desk.


Here is the website but you can find it cheaper online.

Sounds dumb and I did not appreciate it for about 5 years, but a couch (wife had to explain that it was fancy) men's travel toiletry thing. I don't even know what it's called but when I travel I put a bunch of crap in it. Useful as hell



Also got a bench made griptillian at one but it got stoked / lost


My gifts were so crappy I don't even remember what I gave out.

All of my groomsmen liked to grill and cook steaks, so I got them all a branding iron made with their initials on them.  I only know of one who I honestly don't know if he's used it or not.  The rest use it at BBQs and stuff the host.

The Kershaw Leek, made in the USA, with a lifetime warranty.

$30 each from this seller, a steal for this price - then take them to a local shop that engraves trophies and stuff, and get names put on the aluminum handles, or blade if you prefer. Classy, USA quality.
