Leo's back from his three week vacation! Hope he found some crap somewhere for this week's show!

It turns out there were a lot of packages waiting for Leo when he returned from his 3 week trip. One of them was the Alpha, the newest pocket-laden jacket from ScottEVest. Leo showed us two huge pockets accessible from the front that can store a full sized yellow pad, or better yet, an iPad. I don’t own an Alpha jacket, but here’s info from the company website:

The Alpha is not just a great looking jacket designed in collaboration with #1 New York Times bestselling thriller author, Brad Thor... and it's not just the latest concealed carry jacket from SCOTTEVEST. The Alpha is much, much more. Anyone can make a "tactical" jacket that looks tactical. The real finesse comes when a jacket helps you blend into a crowd. After all, when it comes to concealed carry garments, it's not concealed if they know you are carrying it (whatever "it" you choose to carry). This is the philosophy behind the espionage concept of a Gray Man... someone who is eminently capable, but from all outward appearances is just another person going about their business. As Sun Tzu wrote, "All war is deception." The Brad Thor Alpha Jacket by SCOTTEVEST is the most deceptively capable concealed carry jacket the world has ever seen. $200.

Leo says he loves very high end knifes for cutting and cooking. And to prove it, he pledged $599 to the Vmattter Cutlery project on Indiegogo! Here’s some more info on the amorphous ally knife system from the company:

We have been forced to buy and use knives that are sharp when new, but which become dull in a matter of months--even when they have not been used.  Over time, knives microscopically corrode, dulling the edge, and there has been no alternative. Until now. VMatter Cutlery is introducing the first amorphous alloy blade to the knife market. James Kang, VMatter's CEO, has been working toward bringing VMatter (amorphous alloy) to the world since he first experienced it in a lab at Caltech over twenty years ago. However, when one of his employees told him that the knife he had fashioned out of VMatter five years prior had never gotten dull, James thought about the properties of VMatter that made this possible, and the idea for VMatter cutlery was born.

This is a photo of the actual VMatter knife that was used on a daily basis for more than five years, never losing its edge, corrosion free, and virtually no wear. Our Lifetime sharpness guarantee is made possible by VMatter’s building blocks of strength, 2 ½ times stronger and nearly 3 ½ times more elastic than steel, and guaranteed to be corrosion proof.

And that classy bathroom stand that holds a roll of toilet paper, and features a gooseneck iPad holder that was under Leo’s desk when he got back from his trip? That’s from BH Photo. It's about $40. Remember, iPad not included. Here's the link:
