Gerber Gear Receives 5 New and 1 Reassigned US Government National Stock Numbers (NSNs)

Thursday, January 25th, 2024

PORTLAND, OR, – GERBER GEAR is honored to announce five new and one reassigned U.S. Government National Stock Numbers (NSNs) for its products. With these additions, Gerber now has a total of 55 NSNs available through the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) and the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA).

The Gerber Center-Drive Rescue offers uncompromising performance through revolutionary design, now with a one-hand access to a safety rescue hook for immediate egress utility in an emergency. Made in Portland, Oregon with a lifetime warranty, the innovative center-axis driver opens to align like a real screwdriver, yielding maximum torque and rotation. No productivity is sacrificed with a 2.5″ internal partially serrated blade and one-thumb opening sliding jaws. The Center-Drive Rescue is available in Black with a Black MOLLE Sheath (NSN: 5110-01-714-0798) or Black with a Coyote Brown Berry Sheath (NSN: 5110-01-714-0797).

The real world is the truest measure of success, or failure. From the base to the field and back safe again, the Center-Drive Rescue helps you overcome the challenges you face.

The American-made Gerber DoubleDown Folding Machete is a tool that delivers never-before-seen function with an innovative design. Folding up to half its size, the DoubleDown is easily stowed in a MOLLE-compatible sheath. The unique design allows the user 3 distinct functions in one compact package: chop, cut, and baton. The DoubleDown is available in Black/Black with a Coyote Brown Berry MOLLE Sheath (NSN: 5110-01-716-1515), Stonewash/Black with a Black MOLLE Sheath (NSN: 5110-01-714-2346), or Stonewash/Green with a Black MOLLE Sheath (NSN: 5110-01-716-1514). The Quad-lock system is both safe and intuitive, with a built-in stop for added safety. This hybrid tool is proudly made in the USA and is backed by Gerber’s lifetime warranty.

Every Gerber product has a story to tell. The story of the Gerber LMF II is one of resilience and resourcefulness. This knife is rugged and versatile, with a partially serrated blade that is a full 3/16” thick. The MOLLE-compatible sheath includes a built-in blade sharpener. The American-made LMF II was originally designed to free aircrew from a downed aircraft and is tough enough to cut through the fuselage while being smart enough to ensure you are safe while doing so. The knife has a purposeful break between the tang and the striking pommel, providing insulated protection against stray wires and absorbing any shock from hammering. This Gerber rescue/survival knife is now the reference product under legacy NSN 7340-00-098-4327 and is backed by Gerber’s lifetime warranty.

Exploration defines the American experience-defying odds, pressing onward, and defining innovation. Since 1939, Gerber has developed problem solving, lifesaving knives, tools, and equipment in the Portland, Oregon facility-pioneering an industry and honoring a heritage. Local ingenuity and American spirit collide within these walls where iconic products are born, tested, and shipped worldwide. Gerber guarantees everything they make, because they know you seek value and durability in the gear you choose to carry.

High Desert Blade Works Announces Partnership with Steve Tarani

Thursday, January 18th, 2024

Cedar Crest, New Mexico – In early 2021, business professional Thomas Gomez and renowned blade designer and edged weapons expert Steve Tarani began conversations about forming a joint venture that would bring discontinued and new high quality edged tools to market. Three years later the result of this ongoing collaboration is High Desert Blade Works which now offers designer quality at affordable prices.

Thomas Gomez, the founder and CEO of High Desert Rifle Works and Co-Founder of Apothecary Ink, is an avid outdoorsman and precision rifle expert who provides quality products, training, and consulting services throughout the shooting Industry. He is additionally engaged in the Healthcare and Agricultural industries in the areas of data analytics and process improvement.

Serving the United States defense, intelligence, and law enforcement communities for over three decades, Steve Tarani is a renowned defensive tactics/edged weapons subject matter expert (SME) and service provider to numerous high, low-profile US federal agencies. Tarani is a former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) employee, protective programs educator, and formerly on staff at the US DOE National Security Institute (Security Force Training Dept.) at Kirtland Air Force Base. Steve is also a master knife designer (Buck Knives, Benchmade, 5.11, BladeTech, Strider Knives, TK Knives, and High Desert Blade Works), has an extensive Filipino Martial Arts background, and is the architect of the International Chiefs of Police (IACP) Model Policy (and accompanying Training Key) on the carry and usage of knives by police officers.

He remains a federal contractor, active protective agent, and advisor to the US Department of Justice (USDOJ), the US Department of Defense (DoD), and other government agencies.

When Thomas and Steve put their concept to paper, it made sense, and they moved forward with the aid of industry giants such as Duane Dwyer of Dwyer Custom Goods (DCG), co-founder of Strider Knives. 

Combining such tremendous talent and resources, High Desert Blade Works emerged and has since launched a suite of designer production blades that include legacy designs and improved one-handed openers. To complement the live blades, High Desert Blade Works has created a series of fixed and folding straight and curved edged training blades that provide safe training options.

Wednesday, December 20th, 2023

The VTAC RekkeR Flipper was designed by SGM Kyle Lamb (USA, Ret) and is manufactured by WEKNIFE. The name was chosen by Lamb and is Old Norse for “Warrior.” Speaking of warriors, SOF Veteran and Viking Tactics founder Lamb should be no stranger to SSD readers. He spent 21 years in the Army with the last 15 at the tip of the spear before retiring from the Varsity league.

Offered in several finishes, I’ll concentrate today on the WE22010G-1 which features a Black Stonewashed 3.61″ CPM 20CV Reverse Tanto Blade and Black finish Titanium handle. It is a frame lock design with a flipper featuring jimping. Additionally, it has a lanyard hole and an additional pocket clip in case you want to switch sides.
