Damascus steel is the best steel out there for making handsome blades. And wedding rings, according to Deer Custom Knives. They make a bunch of really nice knives from Damascus steel—plus, yes, striking custom wedding rings for your big day—all for up to 44% off right now.
With the fate of the beloved Elbo Room still a little uncertain, it’s comforting to know that their second iteration has just opened in Jack London Square. Grab a cocktail in the bar/pub area downstairs, then head upstairs during a live show to dance like (hopefully) no one’s watching.
CONSCIOUS UNCOUPLING
Timbuk2 is Having a Break-Up-With-Your-Bag Sale
Bring in your old, gently used bag to Timbuk2’s Hayes Valley location this weekend and magical things will happen. Namely, you’ll get 30% off of a completely new, much more stylish and commute friendly bag by trading in the old one. Still counts as magic.
CRAFT KINGS
Show Up. Drink Drinks. Leave With Cool Stuff.
Just a friendly reminder that the Renegade Craft Fair is coming back this weekend, which means tons of local makers slinging their wares—like Campfire Studio, Roxanne Designs and Meg Meyers—alongside music and cocktails. We hope you’ve found this both friendly and a reminder.
Sunday
GREEN DAY
It's Called Avocado Con, So...
Chances are, you like avocados. So you should probably grab tickets to Sunday’s Avocado Con, which will feature special dishes from food trucks (Nombe’s AvoFries with housemade lime-serrano aioli, Choux’s avocado mousse…). There’s an unlimited beer option, too. Well, “option.”
