Prometheus Design Werks has just come out with their first in-house knife, The Griffin. Precision machined from Bohler M390, a premium Austrian blade steel, The Griffin is a skeletonized fixed blade design. The blade is 4″ long, and the spine of the blade features PDW’s proprietary Strikeback feature, a CNCed multi-bevel and arch, function-specific design which is intended to effectively strike ferrocerium rods.

The skeletonized handle features dual lashing points, as well as a combination pry tip/cat’s paw nail puller, which has use with opening cans, breaking glass, reusing nails for emergency shelters, and more. Full length jimping insures a solid grip even with a wet hand, and full chamfering around all the perpendicular edges adds comfort and ease in the hand.

The Griffin comes complete with a Kydex sheath with Tek-Lok mounting hardware.

Available in four finishes: FDE, Matte Black, Milspec OD Green, and Stonewash. The Griffin is made in the USA.

SKD Exclusive – Mountain Hardwear Zerna Military Beanie in MultiCam

January 27th, 2015

I know it’s been out there awhile but it’s snowmageddon in the NorthEast so I thought I’d share.

It’s a one-size-fits-most beanie that will go great under a helmet in cold weather. Sure, it’s MultiCam but if the Smadge asks, just tell him its OCP.

Big Agnes – Chair One in Blue Tiger Camo

January 27th, 2015

This is my OR Winter Market alibi. I ran across this Blue Tiger Camo version of the Chair One and wanted to buy one before I told you about them. Unfortunately, they are sold out, but still very cool in my opinion.

I’ve got an OD version of this 1.9 lbs, folding camping chair and love it. Hopefully, they’ll get more in stock.

Fighter Design USA – Texas Mag Bags

January 27th, 2015

I ran into Fighter Design USA’s head man Adam Slank while walking the SHOT Show floor. Every time I see him, he’s got some cool new product. I noticed he was carrying a nylon bag over his shoulder. Not unusual for SHOT Show, but he sat this one in the ground and said, “Got a minute? I’ve got something to show you.”

He pulled back on the handles and the flap came open and I muttered something like, “oh, wow! That’s a lot of magazines.” Adam didn’t miss a beat, replying, “Of course there are, it’s a Texas Mag Bag.”

Offered in both 12 pack and 6 pack (seen below) configurations, the Texas Mag Bags from Fighter Design USA give you quick access to your magazines. A single flap secures with Fighter Design USA’s signature magnets along with dual zippers on a single pull. You simply give it a pull and voila; magazines…lots of loaded, high capacity magazines each nestled into its own slot.

Texas Mag Bags come fully kitted out with the appropriate number of SureFire 60 rd magazines.

The highly anticipated new import from CZ, the Scorpion EVO 3 S1 is now available on the commercial market.
