Crowdfund This: TIHK EvadeClip

TIHK crashed onto the scene in 2013 with the introduction of their super clever, Tiny Inconspicuous Handcuff Key. Now, with the introduction of the EvadeClip, they are continuing their “desire to protect citizens from those who unlawfully infringe upon life, liberty, and property.”

The EvadeClip is a multi-tool geared toward urban survival and E&E. It is the multi-tool that MacGyver wishes he had when trying to get out of all those sticky situations – maybe not in place of his beloved Swiss Army Knife but certainly in addition to it.

The EvadeClip features stainless steel mini saw for cutting rope, cordage or plastics and a round carbide saw for cutting metal. It also features a three piece lock pick set with a tensioner, a diamond pick, and a bogota style rake. All of these tools fold into a very compact package that looks very unassuming and it has a pocket clip for stowing the EvadeClip on your person or gear.

The Keyrambit Friction Folder Insert For KeyBar turns your KeyBar into a folding karambit. The kit comes with a folding finger loop and hooked blade. Both the blade and loop are made from 154CM steel. This setup “locks” via a friction lock design which means the blade has a protrusion coming from its base that is locked in place by the user’s palm when the knife is gripped.

SHTF Gear Protos Holster Updates

SHTF Gear continues to improve their Protos Holster and broaden the selection of compact handguns for which it is offered.

You may remember when this holster was introduced because of its clever trigger guard treatment. Kydex holsters (non-light bearing) typically retain on the trigger guard and this is what gives them their “click” in and “click” out. Kydex/leather hybrid holsters only retain on the kydex side of the holster which leaves them without the strong, tactile click of an all kydex holster. The Protos Holster solves this by wrapping the kydex completely around the trigger guard. This gives the strong retention of an all kydex holster and the comfort of a hybrid.

The Protos Holster is now available for three new models in addition to the original Walther PPSM2: Glock 43, S&W Shield, and XDs 3.3. SHTF Gear has also added a suede backing option for additional comfort.
