I say it would be a nice step forward. One step after another, this is how we May proceed.

I did not realize how deep american brands are settled in our habits and economy. Almost every succesfull brands here, since our childhood hase be bought by an american firm.

It’s a first step that we understand that. And it is not only about turning out back on american brands, it’s also about trying to make better for a better world.

My words may be naïve. I know. We won’t replace every american product in 2 years, but we gain consciousness. So keeping on educating ourselves is one way to go forward.

It’s more about changing ourselves than hating americans, for what they represent today is just what we are but maybe worse. We should not replace one bad habit with another but take the opportunity to be better.

I know marine nationale straps, they look cool.

The example shown was actually not that kind of strap. Thank you for your help anyway !

I’ll check it out, thanks

Thanks

Thank you. It is very close but I hoped to find the same one with a narrow line in the middle.

Thank you. I did try, but couldn’t find the exact match.

Not that it matters so much but I double checked : Bic is French.

I bought some leatherman multitool 10 years ago. It was purposed as a EDC complementary tool while I was a volunteer fireman. I used it once to cut a small wire and it cracked.

So… That’s it.

Also, think about Opinel and Mora for cheap cool knives.

The design couldn’t be more german (I like the pens)

It has become such a big conglomerate.

Honestly, as a French guy it seems weird to me that PSA Peugeot Citroën, become part of a so-called-dutch huge company.

But in the end, if they maintain jobs in Europe and do good vehicles, why not !

I don’t understand why we seek to be better in this kind of files (bad food, stupidly sugared beverage)

It’s not like a national pride

Now I do understand why nations started to name their ‘’ air forces ‘’, ‘’ air and space forces ‘’

Soon, we may see satellites taken down Space at least until was a place of cooperation. Too bad we start to use it as a new field for combat
