Arbor Arms Ambush Belt

By on April 16, 2020 in Tactical Gear

Arbor Arms just introduced the Ambush Belt and it has a very clever trick. It is fully MOLLE compatible… while also being thin enough (.2″) to pass through the belt hardware of a duty holster!

From Arbor Arms:

The AMBUSH BELT™ is a minimalist MOLLE belt that is very lightweight, extremely low-profile but still stiff enough to support a fighting load. The AMBUSH BELT™ was designed for users that require the lowest profile system possible but still desire the stiffness and stability of a layered belt system. The AMBUSH BELT™ is the thinnest MOLLE belt on the market at just under .200 inches thick, and at the incredibly low weight of 6.2 oz*. The AMBUSH BELT™ also features our Double Reduction Cinch System that allows the belt to be tightened easily while worn for perfect stability and comfort.  The AMBUSH BELT™ features our innovative “Half MOLLE” design that allows additional modularity and customization of the belt configuration while still remaining extremely durable thanks to its Laser cut laminated construction.

Pocket Unloader EDC Dump Tray from Advanced Holster

By on April 15, 2020 in EDC

If your wife is anything like my wife, she would probably appreciate it if you would confine your EDC mess to just one part of the dresser. That is where something like the Pocket Unloader EDC Dump Tray from Advanced Holster can help.

This thermoplastic tray is subdivided into 3 smaller trays so you can nerd out as much as you want about what goes into which area… or you can just dump it all in there and hope for the best. It is a great place to offload your EDC flashlight, keys, knives, lighters, TQ, and more at the end of the day so you don’t have to spend the start of the next day looking for those items.

The Pocket Unloader is available in a number of colors and patterns except for Black. If you like Black, you’ll love Sleeping Panther. It’s like Black but exactly the same. Spend a moment looking through the available colors. It’s sure to put a smile on your face.

Sneak Peek: Ultralight Saw from Knife Point Gear

By on April 14, 2020 in Knives, Outdoor Gear

I’ve been following Alex Garland, OUTDOORS55, on Youtube for quite a while. He has some of the most practical knife sharpening information I have found which is what originally brought me to his channel. He’s also a knife maker and is going to be releasing a very interesting ultralight saw in the next week.

The saw consists of a carbon fiber tube handle with metal reinforcing ferrules at the ends. This handle can accept any standard reciprocating saw blade which is extremely clever considering how inexpensive and plentiful pruning/clean wood blades are. These blades are also made for use in power tools and tend to be very durable compared to some higher performance folding saws.

The saw comes with a 12″ carbide tipped pruning recip blade, a blade cover, and the handle itself. The whole package including the blade cover weighs in at 3.95 ounces. That is extremely impressive when you consider that most 7-8″ folding saws weigh almost twice that (6.6 ounces for something like a Bahco Laplander).

The stats on this saw are impressive but when you consider that it breaks down into two compact parts and doesn’t use expensive replacement blades, it looks like a real winner. Pricing and the exact release date are not available at this time. You can keep your eye on Alex’s Instagram feed and KnifePointGear.com for more information.

Resolute X-1: Ultralight Titanium Knife

By on April 11, 2020 in EDC, Knives

What happens when engineers with an aerospace manufacturing background set their minds to designing a disposable utility blade based, EDC knife to be as slim, light, and simple as possible? The Resolute X-1 happens.

Resolute Tools is a new company that seeks to bring aerospace engineering principles to bear on the EDC market. The potential for such an approach is clear when you take a look at their first tool, the Resolute X-1, with its clever use of material properties and extreme simplicity of design.

The Resolute X-1 has three main components: a standard utility blade, a bronze blade holder, and a titanium frame. The blade rides in the blade holder which is machined from naturally low friction allowing to slide in the titanium frame. The titanium frame has an integral leaf spring that provides detent action for the blade holder so it snaps into the open and closed positions. It’s a very clever design that keeps the entire package slim and simple.

The titanium frame is radically skeletonized to reduce weight and bulk. It fully encapsulates the sharp edges of the utility blade when it is retracted and has an integral pocket clip. The result is an EDC knife that is just .282″ thick and weighs less than half of an ounce! If you carry a larger knife regularly, this may be the perfect companion to it.

Resolute Tools is currently launching the Resolute X-1 on Kickstarter. You can learn a lot more about the design and its creators on their campaign page: Resolute X-1 on Kickstarter
