SOG PowerLock Multitool with V-Cutter

Details: Category: Tools; Created: Saturday, 23 August 2008 03:50

SPECS:
Closed: 4.6"
Open: 7"
Weight: 9.6 oz.

SOG has a lot of variants on their PowerLock series so it is a little hard to narrow down this model, but I believe it is the PowerLock w/V-Cutter S62. I haven't tried a lot of multitools so thought I would mix things up with this guy. First impressions are that it is heavy duty and made from good materials. Kinda has a steampunk look to it. Unfolding from the closed to open / plier position is unexpectedly smooth. It takes some getting used to, but with some practice one can whip the SOG with one hand from closed to open position. The "gear driven compound leverage system" the plier functionality is built on works fantastic. The pliers have the usual wire cutting features, yet also have crimpers good for civie and MIL uses.

Details: Category: Tools; Created: Saturday, 05 July 2008 03:48

Tired of having fruity or overly hi-viz EMT shears? Check these out! Main blades are stainless steel with a black durable passivated low-light finish. The handles are made of impact resistant composite in a Foliage Green based color to look good near ACU / UCP gear. The first intended use is to cut clothing off the wounded to treat them, but they can be used for many more cutting needs.
*Update, now available in black blades and handles.

Bonus note: Last picture shows them in loop panel I designed which is now standard in county comm responder pouches. Sporting a new "Extreme Brown" exterior which is like sewer green, but more brown.

COUNTY COMM Kershaw T-Tool

Details: Category: Tools; Created: Saturday, 05 July 2008 03:47

Since I don't have a big Torx screw set this guys comes in handy to adjust the clips on my knives. Very compact and lightweight, it comes with the most common screw heads to adjust your knife clips. To use, just unscrew the ring end and pour out the bits. Place the desired bit in the other end, which will be magnetically held, and get down to business. The bit sizes specifically include: A Torx T6, T8, and a Philips head driver. Overall length is about 4" and the handle is made of aluminum with a slick teflon coating.

SUREFIRE E1B Backup and G2L with alluminum Bezel

Details: Category: Illumination; Created: Sunday, 15 June 2008 03:29

I first saw this lil' guy at Shotshow 2008 and ever since I've been wanting one. The original intent was for everyday carry for undercover police officers or as a backup light for those who already carry a big boy flashlight. It is only 4 inches long and uses 1 CR123 battery yet is still able to produce 80 lumens for 1.3 hours or 5 lumens in its low setting for 37 hours. They call the exterior shape "melted" styling which generally means it was created with as few snag points as possible. The body and clip are specifically made to be easy on your clothing, while still having a decent grip. I remembered hearing that the clip was reversible and one could mount the E1B bezel up or down, thus felt stupid when I could not figure out how to do bezel up . After some futile attempts to move the clip, I found out one still uses the clip as is, however they use the slot that the space between the clip and body makes. An example of this can be seen on my hat mounted picture.
