undefinedThe NRA Annual Meetings and Exhibits showcases guns and gear galore. As you can guess, there are countless new products here, but as someone who enjoys both hunting and fishing I have to highlight Buck Knives' new Splizzors.

A cross between scissors and pliers, C.J. Buck of Buck Knives was on the mark when he said this 8.3-ounce multi-function tool will come in handy for countless outdoor tasks. Splizzors feature edge-to-edge pressure 10 times that of normal scissors. And considering I'm going on a weekend fishing/turkey hunting combo trip next weekend, I was quick to note the tool's micro serrations will cut braided and high-performance fishing line with ease. Its unique design allows for efficient cutting, trimming, shearing, bending, crimping, and hook removal all with one exceptional tool—and it's made in the USA.

Rethinking Ragù: Venison Ragù Bianco

In Italy, ragù simply refers to a slow-cooked meat sauce. Bolognese—ragù alla Bolognese—is just one regional variation that originated in Bologna and traditionally incorporates tomatoes, wine, milk, and finely minced meat simmered low and slow until deeply rich and complex. But some of the most beautiful ragù dishes in Italy contain little or no tomato at all. This version uses axis deer simply because that’s what I happened to have in the freezer, but this sauce works beautifully with almost any species of venison.
