SHOT Show 20 – Gerber Doubledown

Monday, January 27th, 2020

Gerber launched a LOT of new knives during SHOT Show but the one that stuck out of the crowd is the Doubledown. The overall length is just over 15″ with a 7″ 430HC blade with a glass filled nylon handle.

This Made in USA folding machete features a butterfly design. It’s a beefy, utility blade meant to chop, cut and split wood.

It features a recurved blade, overstrike guard, and stability bar to keep the blade closed during use.

If that wasn’t enough, there’s another fail-safe. Here you can see the Quad-Lock system which not only must be activated to open and close the blade, but automatically locks into place at 45 degrees to prevent injury during closure.

The Doubledown will come with a MOLLE and belt compatible sheath. Available this summer in Flat Sage Green/Stonewash, Black/Stonewash, and Black/Black.

Benchmade – SOCP Tactical Folder

Tuesday, January 21st, 2020

Like the earlier models in the SOCP line, the new tactical folder was designed by Greg Thompson, creator of the Special Operations Combatives Program.

This one is intended for on and off-duty carry. The rapid deployment ring and tip-down carry enhance the speed at which this knife can be deployed from concealment, and the smooth handle dimples allow for confident transition in your hand.

Redesigned with Benchmade’s AXIS-lock technology, this knife won’t leave you fumbling for functionality in stressful situations.
