Gerber Propel Automatic Knives

Friday, August 16th, 2013

Gerber has expanded their line of automatic knives to include the Propel series knives: the Propel Auto and the Propel Downrange Auto.

Propel

The Propel Auto sports a tanto-style 420 HC stainless steel blade with partial serration; a black oxide coating offers limited reflectivity and corrosion resistance. The grip uses a black G-10 composite handle and Gerber’s Assisted Opening 2.0 for seamless, one-handed opening. The plunge lock and safety switch fix the blade in place, open or closed. The pommel features a lanyard hole for utility.

Propel DR

The Downrange shares all the features of the Propel Auto, except it exchanges the black G-10 handle for tan and the 420 HC steel for an upgraded S30V steel blade. Both knives have a blade length of 3.5″ with an overall length of 8.52″ and a weight of 4.28 oz. The Propels also share a three-position adjustable clip that allows the user to customize the knife’s orientation: tip up, tip down, or left side carry.

Outdoor Retailer – Buck Knives

Wednesday, July 31st, 2013

The 941 Travelmate Kit caught my eye awhile back on Amazon and I was glad to finally get a chance to take a look at it. It is a three component system that includes a spreader knife with integrated serrations on the wide blade. It can cut a tomato or spread peanut butter. As Stephanie Young, Buck’s marketing manager said, “It slices dices, cuts and serves.” The handles are made from Dishwasher safe Paperstone handles that are made of up of 100% recycled paper.

The Fork incorporates Can opener, Bottle opener and Scraping tool for grill or stove. Finally, the molded Sheath incorporates about $3 worth of microbial silver nitride to help ensure your utensils aren’t a breeding ground for gunk.

Gerber Downrange Tomahawk Now Shipping

Thursday, July 11th, 2013

Gerber has started shipping the Downrange Tomahawk. Designed for breaching, the axe head’s beveled edge is capable of going through walls as well as doors. The backside of the axe head functions as a hammer for getting through hinges, doorknobs and other obstacles. And, the pry bar at the end of the handle, controlled by a cut away grip in the axe head, offers considerable leverage.

Gerber Tactical Tomahawk

“The Downrange Tomahawk is another product of Gerber’s close relationship with the US Armed Forces,” said Andrew Gritzbaugh, Marketing Manager for Gerber. “By collaborating with a variety of experienced professionals we’ve developed a tool that accomplishes multiple forced entry tasks, reduces the number of tools carried and ultimately lightens the load. This product accomplishes our mission of providing the warfighter with better battlefield solutions.”

Gerber Downrange Tomahawk

The Downrange Tomahawk includes a MOLLE-compatible sheath and Kydex blade cover for safe carry and fast, unrestrained deployment.

You can see the Downrange Tomahawk we first mentioned during last summer’s Outdoor Retailer as well as other Gerber products at Warrior Expo in Virginia Beach 11-12 July.
