Meet “The Colonel”

Friday, November 15th, 2013

“The Colonel” is the result of a collaborative effort between Mr. Nico Salvitti and Invictus Alliance Group.

According to IAG, the Colonel is designed for efficiency; efficiency of design, efficiency of motion, and efficiency of training. They say that The Colonel’s unique design enables its user to quickly and decisively draw the blade, perform a series of fast, powerful, and lethal thrusts on an enemy target. It features a full tang and utilizes a saber grind to ensure a strong cutting edge and point. Both sides of this blade are sharpened and the handle is made of black canvas Micarta to ensure a reliable grip.

Gerber Gear Round Up – Bear Grylls Compact Multi-Tool

Monday, November 4th, 2013

As you know, we’ve got Scouts here at SSD. Each week over on Tactical Fanboy they cover another product from Gerber. Awhile back I went out and bought one each of most of the available Bear Grylls products. We expanded it with a few other Gerber products. The deal is that they can reach into the box and try out an item so long as they write about it afterward. This is one of the write ups. Remember, it’s written by a kid.

The Bear Grylls compact multi-tool features ten components:

Wire Cutters

Serrated Knife

Fine Edge Knife

Small flat driver

Lanyard ring

Tweezers

Needle Nose Pliers

Phillips screwdriver

Medium flat driver

Bottle opener

It’s lightweight and compact, perfect for fitting on a keychain or in a pocket. External components and nail nicks allow for easy access to tools.

I like the variety of tools present on this multi-tool. The nail nicks make them easier to get out. Having a lanyard ring on the tool is good because it can be kept on a keyring or secured to other gear. I also like the small size, but at the same time that makes it a bit harder to find if you misplace it.

Benchmade Introduces ComboEdge SOCP Dagger

Tuesday, October 29th, 2013

This is the coolest thing I didn’t get to see at AUSA. Unfortunately, the sample didn’t arrive at the show but I still get to share it with you thanks to the power of the internet.

The SOCP Knife (Special Operations Combative Program) is a dagger design from Chief Instructor Greg Thompson and manufactured by Benchmade. The design has been out there for awhile so you may have already seen it. However, Benchmade just introduced a new model with a ComboEdge blade. The dagger is designed to be both an offensive and defensive weapon so if you’re wrapped up or someone grabs your primary weapon in a confined space (think house or cave) you can draw the SOCP to engage at close quarters and fight away from the threat to give you enough room to revert to primary or secondary weapon. The blade and finger eye/loop at the top is configured so you can still maintain positive weapon control and good trigger manipulation while the SOCP Knife is in your hand. I’ve written about this before and since some folks have trouble visualizing it, Benchmade created this graphic.

The deal with this new ComboEdge is that the original model was great at stabbing but, lacking a full blade, didn’t do much in the slash department. Benchmade added this new serrated section to the blade and presto; you can hack and slash as well as stab.

In addition to a MOLLE compatible sheath, the SOCP Knife is also available with a red training knife.
