TL;DR: Barbour, Filson, Over-and-Under…read more I've passed by Blackwood Station dozens of times without giving it much thought. But my wife stopped in for some reason and clued me in. I love British outerwear and can't get enough of especially Barbour clothes. This place has, in a small area, probably the best selection of Barbour outerwear of anyplace I've ever been (including outdoor shops in England). They have a complete stock of clothes and accessories for outdoor lovers of every kind. The folks there couldn't be more friendly and welcoming, and are super-low pressure. Apparently they also arrange for outdoor trips of various kinds, but I didn't ask them about it this time.

All the brands that I saw are QUALITY stuff- brands that stand behind their goods when life happens. Lots of great outerwear options whether you're hiking a trail or just down Franklin St. Really great and friendly staff. Will definitely be back to browse more.

I ordered my first Spartan Harsey Folder back in 2019, and ever since then it has gone everywhere…read morewith me. As an avid outdoorsman, I depend on my gear, and my Harsey has never let me down. The craftsmanship, reliability, and attention to detail are second to none. My original knife came with S35VN steel, and after years of hard use it still performs incredibly well. Fast forward to 2026 -- my daughter is graduating high school, and she has always admired "Dad's favorite knife." She's an outdoorswoman herself, so I wanted to get her something meaningful she could carry for years and eventually pass down herself. I found a beautiful Spartan Harsey Folder with the paisley pattern online and called Spartan Blades to place the order. Kim was unbelievably helpful and had the knife turned around in just a few days. When it arrived, I realized it was the smaller version, and I knew my daughter really wanted one like mine. Here's where Spartan Blades proved why they are in a league of their own. I called on a Monday. Graduation was Thursday. Kim immediately went to work, had the correct knife built, personalized with my daughter's initials just like mine was, and shipped it out immediately. It arrived the DAY of graduation. That level of customer service simply does not exist anymore. Not only was the service exceptional, but the new Magnacut steel on her Harsey is incredible. The edge retention and overall performance are a major upgrade and show that Spartan Blades continues to evolve and improve an already world-class product. From the quality of the knives to the people behind the company, Spartan Blades represents everything American manufacturing should be. Knowing the company was founded by retired Green Berets Curtis Iovito and Mark Carey makes the story even better -- these knives are built with purpose, discipline, and uncompromising standards. Spartan Blades doesn't just make knives. They make heirlooms. In my opinion, this is the finest high-end knife company in America, and I will proudly carry Spartan Blades for the rest of my life.

I purchased the Enyo knife some years ago and I have to say the quality is amazing. It has lasted…read moreme through years of service in the military and is still going strong. I just purchased the Phrike in the last week and again, the quality is amazing. The knives are a bit pricey but to get a really good knife that will stand up to rigorous use is worth paying for it. The customer service here is amazing as well. I ordered my knife online and time was taken to write a personal thank you note on the invoice before it was shipped out to me. You can't find places that do this very often. As a veteran I am proud to support a veteran owned business like spartan blades, especially since they make quality cutting tools for everyday use and for combat. I will be bringing my business back to Spartan Blades in the future, and thank you for everything you all do everyday!

It took me more than a year of coming here to write a review for Yonderlust, mostly because I'm…read moresurprised by how much this place grew on me. Yonderlust is more than just a coffee shop--it's one of those spaces where you can easily spend an entire afternoon without realizing how much time has passed. It's a fantastic study and work spot: a mix of table sizes, plenty of outlets, and a relatively quiet, calm environment that makes it easy to settle in. It has solid coffee: Drinks here are consistently pretty good. I usually go for their Campfire Latte (a signature for a reason) or whatever seasonal syrup they're featuring, and their matcha latte is reliable too. It has actual, warm food: simple but satisfying sandwiches with enough variety to make for a perfect study snack or light lunch. I am often disappointed when coffee shops only offer cold pastries. It has entertainment: I love taking a quick study break to browse the shop's outdoor gear and clothing; it honestly feels a little like being transported to the West Coast for a moment (give me some Oregan vibes!). Service has always been quick and friendly. I wouldn't say any single thing here is the best in Durham--but together, it is special! There are many days when I find myself craving a few cozy hours at Yonderlust, followed by a quick dessert next door at Rose's.

Bottom line: Pretty nice coffee shop cafe adjacent to/sharing space with an apparel shop. Crowded…read moreeven on a Sunday. Clean inviting atmosphere, I enjoyed my hot skim latte here. The Deets: I had brunch with some friends that live in Durham and after the meal, they directed me to stop into Yonderlust for a coffee beverage stop instead of having one at the restaurant. We stopped by and ducked into the cafe side...I say cafe side as 2/3 of the space there is an outfitters/apparel shop and the other part houses the coffee shop/cafe. The cafe side (as well as the apparel shop) is very nicely done inside, very appealing and clean. The coffee seating area was packed, it appears to be a great place to stop and sit/work a spell even on a Sunday. Ordering moved through fairly quickly and I put in my request for a hot skim latte to the very nice and positive person at the register. The wait was not long before my beverage was completed, and your beverage/name are both called out to pick up when it's ready. I did manage to find one lone chair to sit and drink my tasty beverage while my friends did some shopping in the apparel side. I enjoyed my latte, I'd most definitely stop in again when in the area.
