A nice knife with the blade engraved.
I have gifted Zero Tolerances, only because I like the ZT, and they were easy to engrave on the titanium side or simply, you can engrave the blade.
I received a knife years ago as a groomsman, and I loved the idea. At least this was a well thought out gift, that I use.
Good luck,

I dig the unique ideas. For mine it was custom bottle openers made from old railroad spikes and some cigars.
An engraved rod or reel would be pretty slick.

Guided drifts down the bow, more memories than any trinket that will be put in a drawer and forgotten.

I did engraved hatchets for my guys. They were a 1-piece handle/blade type unit, not very pricey, but they turned out good and I think they were liked.
Almost 20 years ago now, wow.

I gave a few ounces of silver coins to my best men.
Silver and gold is high right now. Otherwise 1 oz. silver coins or 1/4 ounce gold coins are good gifts. I bought the 1 oz. silver coins when they were 7 bucks each. Now they are 40 each. 1/4 ounce gold coins were about 60 bucks then. Now they are 600.00.
Anything precious metal is a good gift. A gold or silver len thompson spoon, a box of silver bullets in their caliber, or a set of silver broad heads.

The one time I received such a gift it was a sling shot. Love it and just replaced the elastics the other day, again. And ceramic shot.

A nice usable knife, engrave if you like. Just don't pick something that will sit and be forgotten.

All the men I know carry pocket knives so I am a fan of a good quality three blade Case or Uncle Henry Stockman as a groomsman gift. The other thing that was very popular were engraved Seiko wrist watches but there are a lot of people who no longer wear a watch. Engraved or embossed money clips with an RF card piece have been very popular the last few years.

I got married in August 2019. We paid for the groomsmen's suits (I think it's the biggest dick move going to make your wedding party shell out hundreds for clothes at your wedding) and got everyone in the wedding party engraved glasses from their favourite craft brewery (we're all big craft beer nerds) and they all drank for free that night, so they'd just go refill that glass all night. I think it was appreciated.
