The Ultimate Gift Guide for Him

Welcome to the ULTIMATE gift guide for him!

A few years ago, my husband worked hard creating a gift guide for men picking out all types of great items for different types of guys. This year, we have updated it with new ideas and more fun items to choose from. Be sure to read this post from a few years ago on how to pick out the best gift on any budget. I would recommend reading that post first to get an idea on what type of gift you should lean towards. Understanding the gift recipient helps you pick out a meaningful, great gift. Price doesn’t always matter, but giving from the heart does!

With this gift guide for him, we have over 75 hand-picked items from my husband that he has either used and loved, knows someone who has the item and enjoys it, or it has the highest reviews. He took the time to make sure each item was good quality, for the best price. He is a tool man, fitness guru, and an outdoor enthusiast, so he has some great knowledge to share with you about picking out a gift for any man in your life.

The Ultimate Gift Guide for Him!

How to Use the Ultimate Gift Guide for Him

Items that aren’t self explanatory, my husband has written a little about it and why it is such a good gift. You will notice the word Favorite! by a few items in each category. These are our favorite items that are the best bang for your buck and are really great products. Each category has a few stocking stuffer ideas as well.

If you have any questions about an item listed, leave us a comment! He will answer to the best of his ability! We wanted to create something that can help you find something for your husband, brother, son, dad, grandpa, uncle. It can be hard to buy for men, so I hope this can help!

For the Tool Man

Dremel 4000 ($92, Be sure to check this for Black Friday) 

This is a great mult-purpose tool for anyone who loves woodworking, small metal work like knife making, and more. It does sanding, polishing, and grinding on a small metal. My husband has had this for years and loves it!

24 Piece Combination Wrench Set ($24.99)

 

3 Piece Adjustable Wrench Set ($34.00)

Durable Tool Bag ($15.00)

Favorite! 208 Piece Screwdriver Bit Set ($35.00)

This is a must have among any handy man. Anyone who has a drill will really love this set! It holds all the bits and drivers in one set so things don’t get lost. Excellent starter kit for someone who has a drill.

Compact Drill Kit ($98)

And if they don’t have a drill yet, this is a great household drill.

Bluetooth Connected Angle Finder ($32.00) Picture Below

This is a great tool for anyone who needs to measure angles for fence work or building. This takes away all the math for finding angles.

The Ultimate Gift Guide for him! 75+ custom, handpicked ideas for any man in your life from fitness, tools, sports, outdoors to stocking stuffers!

Household Double Ratchet Screwdriver Set ($24.99)

Magnetic Screw Driver Kit ($14.99)

Rubber Air Hose ($22.00)

Most hoses that come with any air compressor are PVC hoses which are hard to roll up and bend. It can be very frustrating! Buying a rubber hose is the way to go for an air compressor. Make sure you pick the right fittings for the air compressor.

**Stocking Stuffer** Red Coupler & Plug Kit ($14.95)

This is the part that goes with the air hose to connect it to the air compressor. This size will vary depending on the air compressor, so make sure to take a picture of the size before buying to make sure it’s the correct size.

Favorite! Performance Tool W1665 900 Amp Jump Starter, Inflator and Portable Power Unit($42)

This unit is great! It can jump start a car, air up a tire, and plug in your phone. Perfect for anyone who travels or commutes. If you are stranded or battery dies, this will jump you off or air your tire.

Maglite LED 3-Cell D Flashlight ($24)

The Maglite is famous for their durable aircraft aluminum lights. They now make one in LED, so it has more lumen power. If you buy this for a gift, see the stocking stuffer below. The mounting racks make it easy to keep anywhere like your car, a wall, garage, etc. Every handy man needs a good dependable light.

**Stocking Stuffer** Maglite Black Universal Mounting Brackets for D-Cell Flashlight ($7.98)

Specific for the flashlight above.

Favorite! Work Sharp Knife and Tool Sharpener ($67.99)

This work sharp knife and tool sharpener is our top favorite probably in the entire list. It will sharpen ANY tool or knife. You will never have a dull knife or tool in the house again including serrated.

Kreg Jig K4 Pocket Hole System($99 (Picture Below)

The pocket hole jig is what we used to build this coffee table. Perfect for anyone who builds furniture, it hides all the screws and joints. A pocket hole joint is one of the strongest joints, and the fastest to create.

The Ultimate Gift Guide for him! 75+ custom, handpicked ideas for any man in your life from fitness, tools, sports, outdoors to stocking stuffers!

**Stocking Stuffer** Dowel and Tenon Centers ($10)

A dowel and tenon center is used to mark your holes if you are making a dowel/peg joint. Anyone who likes old school carpentry uses these pegs instead of nails.

Kreg Rip-Cut ($49) (Picture Below)

This is a must have for anyone who has a circular (Skil saw). Circular saws are hard to get straight cuts with, but this gives perfect straight lines every time. It will work for any brand.

Heavy Duty Ratchet Tie Down Straps ($26.95)

The Nikon Range Finder also accounts of the angle as well as distant. A range finder for anyone who likes to shoot rifles, golf or archery.

 Favorite! Steel Shooting Target-6 Inch Diameter Round Knockovers ($66)

This is pistol only. You can use these over and over again. These make shooting more fun! Instead of paying several hundred dollars for a dueling tree, you can set these up.

6 Piece 5 inch Steel Shooting Pistol Targets ($47.99)

These are smaller than the one above, so it will require more skill to hit them. It is a good route for a lower budget.

Favorite! Medium Flip Shot AR500 Steel Reactive Auto Reset Pistol Rifle Target($47.95)

These targets walk down range as you shoot them! Must have gift for anyone who owns a rife.

Hand Crank NOAA AM/FM Weather Alert Radio with Smartphone Charger ($49)

Great gift for a camper! It can also be used in your house for emergencies.

Advanced Bushcraft: An Expert Field Guide to the Art of Wilderness Survival ($10)

Nikon Prostaff 3S 10×42 Roof Prism Waterproof Binocular($126)

When it comes to lenses, you get what you pay for. We have three different price ranges listed. This one is more for anyone who hikes or backpack.

This is a little better quality than the cheaper one, so it is a great option if it fits your price range.

Barbecue! Bible Sauces, Rubs, and Marinades Bastes, Butters, and Glazes Cookbook ($8.96)

For the Fitness Guy

Spartan Warrior Workout Book ($14.36)

All the books we have in this section are great for anyone who doesn’t have time to get a trainer, go to the gym or stay motivated! These books have great options for anyone who enjoys working out. I bought this for my husband in 2012, and he still uses it everyday!

Bowflex SelectTech 552 Adjustable Dumbbells ($279)

Having a set of dumb bells at home allows you to do almost any workout. Buying a set of dumb bells is extremely expensive, but these adjustable ones are a cheaper option. You still get all the weights like a full set!

Favorite! Yes4All Adjustable Dumbbells 40, 50, 52.5 , 60, 105 to 200 lbs ($199)

This is a little cheaper than the one above. Perfect for someone who has a garage gym because you can drop this on the ground. They are very durable.

    What a great list you two compiled! I want a few of those things, like the LED Maglite (I have the “regular” one which also makes a great weapon), the hand crank AM/FM radio for emergency needs and the jump starter/inflator tool! I will show this to hubby and see it there’s something Mrs Claus can bring him 🙂

    HI Alexis… maybe you and your hubby can provide a suggestion or a link to this item. Looking for a sharpener for the hand gardening shears (Fiskars brand). We have one but it doesn’t get into the deeper curve/rounds of the blade because of the rivet/hinge thingy. (yes, that’s a technical term) Thanks for any suggestions you might have!

    Reply

      November 21, 2019 at 6:26 am

      We bought my dad a sharpener a few years ago that is electric and has the belts on it. It sharpens everything even things with the grooves. I have not tried it on those types of shears though! I am wondering if it might work for that?
