stuff I just bought from ranger joes.

[BOOMSTICK]

check these out. I just ordered some stuff from ranger joes.
I always like finding things to add to the pack.

No more knots! Multi-purpose, heavy-duty, injection molded, plastic hooks. Fits rope or shock cord up to ¼" thick. Adjustable and reversible. Great for tie downs or making your own bungee cords. To use, insert one end of the rope into the opening of the hook adapter. Adjust rope length and lock hook down into place. Attach another hook on the other end if necessary.
Rope/cord not included. 3.95

Use on any 1" wide piece of webbing. Replaces metal locking D-ring. High strength lightweight plastic. Detent maintains an open position if needed. Breaks at 80 lb. of tension, elminating snagging hazards.
4 Pack.
9.95

Designed and manufactured for last-ditch self-defense or survival. Made of engraveable, ultra-light, and strong titanium alloy. Easy to resharpen. Chisel grind edge will only cut when pressure is applied. Can be worn safely around the neck with the included rubber silencer. Tumbled matte finish. MADE IN USA.

Can be worn safely around the neck with the included rubber silencer.

Everything's cool up until that....



I had a good friend crash on a bicycle and get cut very badly by a smooth ceramic medallion he was wearing on a neck chain. I would not want to depend on a thin piece of rubber to protect me from a sharpened piece of Ti hanging around my neck!


I use the Grimlocks (your second item) on all my Molle-capable bags and packs; they're handy!

Stay sharp,

BoomStick did you try the hooks yet?? Do they hold the rope good enough to prevent slippage??? How about para cord??
I also tried to find them but what Joe ranger site did you find them at??? They seem to be very usefull

I just ordered them . they should be here tommorrow. I am hoping that they hold para cord good. that would make life a lot easier..... I'll make sure that I post some pics of them in use. I am going to go backpacking in two weeks.

I love Ranger Joes. Their store in Benning is really cool. Great company, very soldier orientated, and definatly reliable.

That rope hook is cool, as is the Ti dogtag. Gonna have to pick those up. I have some of those grimlocks, they are quite handy on my maxpedition bottle holder.....

Thanks for sharing bro!!

If you want a great Ti-dog tag knife, go to www.ratcutlery.com and get one there, I have one and I'm betting the guy that grinds these...might be doing a better job. Besides, it's just plain fun to support Jeff because he is making good stuff.

Regular dog tags usually eventually make their way through those rubber silencers- it takes a while, but it happens. I wouldn't want to wear one of those around my neck. There's probably better options for an altoids tin too...
