Need some gift ideas for a guy

I need to buy a gift for my moms boyfriend (most likely soon to be step dad)
we already treat him like a dad so i wanted to get him something nice
but not too pricey.. we are not big on the gift giving thing. so maybe about $25

He likes stuff he can use
his hobby is oil painting but i think hes got a TON of stuff already
hes the kind of guy that likes tools but doesnt really know how to use them all lol (a guy thing i guess)

overall hes pretty laid back and jokes arounds

with that being said.. do you have any suggestions?

thanks

If he has a favorite artist perhaps you could get him a nice book of their works. Sounds corny but would he wear a nice scarf?

Here are some ideas for you:
Does he have a favorite sport?
Maybe some slippers
cuff links
Money clip
a basket with his favorite snacks
leather journal
wine or beer
cigars
Back massager or heated seat cushion
