Occasionally I see some interesting travel related products being crowd funded that I think you guys might be interested in.  We’ve talked about the Tropic travel shoe, the Cleansebot bacteria killing robot, and the Hypercube charger, among others. Here’s a few of the travel related crowd funded projects that I’ve seen.

Today I wanted to talk a bit about the Outlery reusable cutlery and chopsticks, which bills itself as Pocket-Sized Reusable Cutlery & Chopsticks For On-The-Go

All Kickstarter / Indiegogo links in this post may pay me a commission if you boost the project through my link.

Outlery pocket-sized cutlery and chopsticks features

The Outlery pocket-sized cutlery and chopsticks bills itself as the world’s smallest and reusable cutlery set. I’m sure that many of us while traveling have gotten into situations where we’ve been away from home without access to proper cutlery. Plastic / disposable / single-use cutlery and chopsticks are always an option, but Outlery was born from the idea that Americans throw away about 1000 pairs of disposable cutlery and chopsticks every year!

The IMMO selfie stick / phone stabilizer is on Kickstarter and has currently raised over USD$1,000,000 from a $5,000 initial goal. It’s only on Kickstarter until July 5th, so you have about a week left. Here are a few of the levels that you can back the project at

  • €18 (about USD$20) – one chopsticks set
  • €32 (about USD$36) – one cutlery set
  • €47 (about USD$53) – one full set (chopsticks and cutlery)

There are also discounts for buying multiple sets.
