This under-$35 outdoor utility knife set is a smart camping kit add-on

Save $14 on an outdoor-ready knife + sharpener combo for your glovebox or go-bag

Good Deal utility knife and sharpener set deal
Bespoke Post

A solid utility knife is one of those things you don’t think about until you need it—then you really need it. The Uncharted Supply Co. Empire Knife and Sharpener set is down to $31 (was $45), saving you $14. For an outdoor, everyday-carry style knife, the value is in being prepared without overpaying, especially if you want something you can keep in a pack, car kit, or emergency bag.

What you’re getting

This is an outdoor utility-style knife paired with a sharpener, which is the smart way to buy a blade you actually plan to use. The knife is meant for practical tasks—opening packages, cutting rope, camp chores, quick fixes around the house, or keeping in a vehicle kit.

The sharpener matters because utility knives don’t stay useful if they get dull. Having a simple sharpening option on hand makes it more likely the knife stays ready instead of becoming dead weight at the bottom of a drawer.

Why it’s worth it

This deal works because it’s a complete mini-kit. Instead of buying a knife now and “meaning to” buy a sharpener later, you’re getting both for $31, which is a nice price for something you’ll toss into regular rotation.

It’s also a good pick if you’re building out basic preparedness items: a knife plus a way to maintain it is more useful than a blade alone. Just keep it simple—store it responsibly, know your local rules for carrying, and treat it like a tool, not a toy.

The bottom line

At $31, this Uncharted Supply Co. Empire Knife and Sharpener set is a really good value if you want an outdoor utility tool you can keep in a go-bag, glovebox, or camping kit—and you like the idea of maintaining the edge instead of replacing the knife. If you already have a trusted utility knife and sharpening setup, it’s easy to skip.

Swiss watchmaking at this price tends to split into two camps: watches that look the part but don't show you anything, and watches that give you a window into the movement underneath. The Frederique Constant Highlife Heartbeat FC-310N4NH6B sits firmly in the second group. It's down to $1,649 at Amazon, a $546 saving off its $2,195 list price, and the open-heart aperture at 6 o'clock makes it one of the more visually interesting automatics available at this price right now.
