Christmas Gifts you buy, want, give or just think are "cool"

Well, some of us males struggle with things to buy as gifts. Playing Santa isn't our gig.
What cool finds have you located that us mere financial mortals can purchase for our sons/dads/grandsons/brothers-and might be a hit.
I'm thinking camping, hunting, flying related, but not to the exclusion of a great idea for the little woman in our lives.
Yes, I'm asking for "help", but if we pool our good ideas, we might all "Smell like a Rose" Christmas morning.

Web addresses would be nice where applicable....

Humor may not make the world go around, but it certainly cheers up the process... :)

I ordered a tool roll (empty) for each of my two sons. Expensive for what it is, no doubt, but isn't everything anymore?

My wife LOVES Tom Selleck. I bought her the complete "Magmum PI" series DVDs at Costco for $100.
A gift that might keep on giving? He he :)

There are LOTS of survival pocket fire starters out there. This is the one I like and carry all the time and used as a gift in the past. Small, rides easily on my key chain, and doesn't look too obvious/ geeky? Available in aluminum also for a bit less.

These always go over well and are amazingly bright.
