April 25th, 2013Warrior West – Mustang Survival
April 25th, 2013Mustang Survival has introduced a new under suit designed to be worn beneath a combat uniform. It’s so new, they don’t even have a name for it. The technology comes from the US Air Force Integrated Aircrew Ensemble and is meant for those that need a dry suit for that just in case scenario but doesn’t plan on getting in the water.
It integrates a new diagonal, low profile, lay flat, flexible, waterproof entry zipper as well as a relief zippered access. It weighs half the weight of a traditional dry suit and is a breathable design manufactured form a tri-laminate and incorporates stretch panels on the arms, lower back and knee. In order to offer a semi-custom fit, it is offered in 24 sizes. Finally, you can patch small holes in 30 minutes or less and repair seals.

Warrior West – Kopis Mobile
April 25th, 2013There are lots of metal detectors but none of them do TacEx does. In addition to a metal detector it also contains a magnetometer to help find emitters such as bugs. But the real exciting part is the data collection component which reports data to a small communications decide via Bluetooth. Kopis Mobile sees the TacEx really shining for site exploitation, village stability operations and entry control points. Naturally, the TacEx can also be used for route clearance.
It collects data via Android or iOS creating an event log which offers real time position location data, live streaming video and stills. It can also be used to probe bags and shipments. Additionally, the TacEx facilitates standoff sensing of individuals and items on interest. It’s also fully ambidextrous and runs for 4-6 hours on 6 x CR123A batteries.
Additionally, tracking software allows you to determine how and where the TacEx is being used which allows maintenance tracking.

Warrior West – Benchmade
April 25th, 2013The 9170 Auto Triage was developed at the request of US Navy Aviators who were looking for a knife with auto opening features for both the main blade as well as personal safety cutter.
Here you can SE the evolution of the design. At the bottom is the 916 which was developed with Natick as well as Customs and Border Patrol who wanted a knife with an opposing bevel for increased blade strength. That blade style is also good for folks who need to use it while on a platform like an aircraft or ship as there’s no point to accidentally cut someone or something. The 916 Triage also incorporates a personal safety cutter as well as a carbide tip glass breaker. The middle knife is the 915 SBK-ORG with the sheeps foot blade and has more of a commercial appeal. Finally, the knife at the top is the 9170 SBK-ORG. It incorporates an auto opening modified drop point blade as well as an auto personal safety hook. Eventually, all of the models will be available in auto variants and the corrosive resistant N680 blades are available in satin or black cerakote finishes. Handles are G10.

Warrior West – Gerber
April 25th, 2013I’ve written about most of Gerber’s new products but as I per used their wares, something caught my eye. It was a lock blade knife with a drop point sheeps foot blade. It was kind of funny. At first they were like, “You’re interested in this old thing?” But then one of the the guys thought about it and related, “ya know, that knife has been around a long time and it’s got a great price. In fact, I’ve been carrying one since I was a kid.”
The EZ-Out DPSF Black is based on the commercial EZ-Out model many of you may already have at home and is made from S30V steel. It’s even got an NSN (5110-01-452-2215).
Overall Length: 8″
