What should I get my outdoorsy uncle for Christmas?

Thank you for the recommendation last year to get him a hand-held spotlight. He loves it.
He's 80 and lives in a house with a two-car garage full of every tool imaginable. Used to hunt and fish regularly, but now mostly likes to ride his zero-turn mower in his fairly large yard. Price range under $100.
Let's hear your ideas. Thanks in advance.

This might sound stupid, but if he has an iPhone, I use the crap out of some wireless headphones when I’m cutting grass

I doubt he would use them. He only uses his phone to play word games.

Not sure the cost, but hookers and blow would be high on the list of any 80 year old.

Does he have a striping kit or mulching attachment for his zero turn?

Get one of his favorite outdoors picture put on canvas and blown up.

Does he have a worksharp knife sharpener? I could see myself at 80 yrs old sitting around for hours enjoying sharpening every blade I could get my hands on.
I bought my dad (72) a nice firstlite merino wool shirt last year and he cussed me for spending so much money on it but he wears it weekly and has since purchased another for himself. $80 shirts for someone from that generation are usually something they'll never do.
Does he have a wireless weather station at his house? My pops spends a lot of time monitoring his. I think my brother gave it to him and he's since got a bunch of his older buddies to get their own and they call each other to compare who got 0.25" of rain and who got 0.35".

Now we're getting somewhere. Like your ideas. I'm pretty sure he has a knife sharpener, but I'm liking the weather station idea.
They have one at Sharper Image. Is that the one your dad has?
