Blade Show 2015 – RMJ Tactical

Sunday, June 7th, 2015

Here’s a sneak peek of a collaboration between RMP Tactical and Austrlian Peter Fegan who is known for his ergonomic designs. The curves of the handle very much remind me of an ice axe.
  

While the production models will be crafted from 4140 chromoly steel, the Tan variant is actually a one-of-kind, Titanium model. The axes will also incorporate G10 handles. Look for a limited run this fall.

Blade Show 2015 – MultiCam Is Coming Back to Triple Aught Design

Friday, June 5th, 2015

Two big surprises for me this Blade Show.  First, Triple Aught Design is exhibiting for the first time.  As I looked around their booth, out of the corner of my eye I spotted some MultCam which led to my second surprise.

 
For years, TAD fans have been asking for them to bring back MultiCam.  They are doing it, in limited runs, in three pant styles.  First up will be the Force 10s seen here followed by two as-yet-unnamed models.  Keep your eyes peeled and your credit card ready and be prepared to mash that ‘F5’ button.
