I ran into my old friend Clayton aka Mil Spec Monkey at Triggrcon. He’s always got lots of irons on the fire, but this one is almost ready to go.
Based on the success of his first Tanto-style Knife collaboration with KA-BAR, Mil Spec Monkey is introducing a Drop Point version.
The handle was designed for use with a reverse grip as well as offering lots of purchase for the thumb.
It comes with a 550 cord wrapped handle and injection molded sheath. Coming soon from milspecmonkey.com.
Mil-Spec Monkey created this how-to video for first-time M-Lok users.
If you attend SHOT Show, you’ll see Mil Spec Monkey and his crew of merry men everywhere. Whether he’s picking up women (literally), riding a Tactical Dino or running to and fro’ with cameras in hand, shooting video and stills, that guy gets around.
I caught up with Monkey as he filmed Senior Team Leader Joseph Garcia of US Corrections Special Operations Group and his K9, Max. STL Garcia discussed use of the Core Survival HEL-STAR strobe to mark team members as well as the Team Wendy Bump Helmet.
Look for Monkey’s video soon.

This article was featured yesterday on Tactical Fanboy.
I was watching some of the alpha multiplayer footage from Call of Duty: Ghosts and I noticed a very familiar looking logo being used as a player emblem. Specifically, it’s the Mil-Spec Monkey logo, slightly altered to include either some frost or a white beard along the chin. I contacted Monkey directly about spotting this, to get his take on its inclusion in the game. The verdict? While I wasn’t flat out told directly, it doesn’t look like its use was authorized by Monkey himself.
It can be seen in this video around the 1:30 and 1:50 marks.
The Adapt is Mil Spec Monkey’s first foray into the world of pack design. Manufactured by Tactical Tailor it is an adaptable design that can be set up as a dual-strap pack or a single-strap from either side.
The pack bag offers PALS webbing, shock cord and a color matched loop field. There is a hydration pocket which can also be used to store the shoulder straps when not in use. For example, when the pack is attached directly to a vest with its incorporated hardware.
The generous main compartment incorporates two bottle holders. Additionally, an exterior pocket has a loop field on the interior to attach Velcro backed pouches or holsters.
Made in USA and offered in Black, Marine Coyote, MultiCam, Ranger Green and Urban.
