From showing you how to tie the best fishing knot (or trying to, anyway) to carrying the gear and helping to set up your tent without asking, give back to your Dad this Father’s Day with some new gear for his upcoming summer adventures!
The 5th of September will be here before we know it, although you still have enough time to take a look at our Father’s Day gift ideas and have something sent directly to him or yourself before his big day of appreciation.
Here are our ten top Father’s Day gift ideas:
1. Portable Fire Pit, Grill & Ferro Rod Combo
Barbecue anywhere with this lightweight Fire Pit & Grill Combo that includes a Ferro Rod that lasts up to 20,000 strikes (items also available to be purchased individually here).
The fire pit is designed to use minimal fuel and leave a low or no trace. The fire pit and grill are both Stainless Steel, durable and 100% recyclable.

2. Industrial Inspired LED Lantern
This quality small lantern from Barebones Living has a Steel frame and cage around an LED light.
It can be charged by a USB input and is available in four colours.

3. Japanese Nata Tool
Let your Dad lead the hike through the bush with this Japanese style Nata Tool.
It has a solid Steel blade with Hardwood handle and comes presented in display box.

4. Reusable Biodegradable Travel Mug

This entire safety razor can be recycled and the Bamboo handle would break down and return to nature if buried.

7. Cast Iron Hot Plate & Griddle
Cook straight on the camp fire or barbecue with this heavy duty hot plate that’s built to last a lifetime, if it’s not passed down to future generations, that’s not a problem as it’s 100% recyclable.

8. Cast Iron Dutch Oven
Camping gets a whole lot easier with a Cast Iron Pot that can be hung above the flames of the camp fire on a tripod or placed right on the fire.
Just like the hot plate, quality Cast Iron cookware typically lasts for around 100 years, then it can be recycled into a new Steel based item.
