BlackHawk MOD CQD Mark I Tactical Knife

This award-winning knife was designed by the official close-combat trainer of the U.S. Navy SEALs with extreme duty in mind.

Its rugged milled aluminum construction, state-of-the-art plunge lock mechanism, and secondary safety lock make it one of the strongest folding knives ever produced.The precision-ground 154CM stainless steel blade is available with a plain edge or partially serrated and features an ambidextrous thumb stud for rapid one-handed manual opening. Once open, the positioning and function of the plunge lock button ensure that the operator’s fingers are clear of the blade path when closing the knife. This makes both deployment and stowing of the knife a one-handed operation, even while wearing gloves. The Mark I feature a raised area around the lock button and a sliding secondary safety to prevent accidental disengagement of the lock during use.

The unique handle design of the Mark I includes a three-dimensional hilt that provides an exceptionally secure grip in all situations. In addition to its primary blade, the Mark I features a recessed support blade for safely cutting seat belts, clothing, parachute cord, or restraints in situations where deployment of the primary blade might not be tactically sound (for example, around flotation equipment or in close proximity to another person’s body). The forward portion of the handle also houses a carbide glass breaker for breaching windows, making it an ideal choice for paramedic and rescue personnel.

The sterile, unmarked, manually operated Mark I LE (Limited Edition) optimizes the weapon potential of this knife with the addition of a sharpened false edge on the top of the blade. A ballistic nylon belt pouch is included with the Mark I and an optional Prylon™ sheath (included with the LE model) allows the Mark I to be carried in the open position like a fixed-blade knife. For users who work with explosives or do extensive rope work, an optional folding spike assembly is also available that can be used to create holes for blasting caps or as a marlinspike to loosen knots.

Blackhawk Body Armour


BlackHawk Products Group, the leader in tactical gear for law enforcement and military personnel is proud to announce BlackHawk Armor, LLC, a new division dedicated to developing a broad range of innovative personal protective ballistic armor to meet the demanding needs of Special Forces and Tactical teams. BlackHawk Armor’s new products have been designed specifically for those who find themselves in high-threat environments and will enhance the existing line of tactical products from BlackHawk Products Group. BlackHawk Armor’s initial product offerings include ballistic vests, ballistic rifle plates, and ballistic helmets, tested to NIJ 05 ballistic and U.S. Military 662F frag standards and to provide maximum survivability for the operator.

“The decision to venture into body armor really was more like a natural transition,” Mike Noell, President and CEO of BlackHawk explained. “We have been in the carrier business for awhile and with the new patent pending Cutaway vest carriers, it seemed a natural progression to supply the best possible armor for our carriers.”
The new Level 3A ballistic soft panels will be sold with the BlackHawk S.T.R.I.K.E. Cutaway Vests along with a compliment of optional ballistic accessories such as, throat, collar, shoulder, groin, and bicep. BlackHawk Armor products will provide operators with the opportunity to reconfigure their vests dependant upon their mission or threat. Providing greater coverage, BlackHawk Armor is tested to 3A NIJ 0101.04 and 05 interim compliance as well as tested to U.S. Military 662F standards. The panels incorporate a combination of proven woven and laminated aramid fabrics backed with a patented material specifically designed to minimize blunt trauma (back face deformation). In addition to providing soft armor, BlackHawk Armor will offer Rifle Strike Plates in two sizes, 8.75” x 11.75” and a 9.5” x 12.5” with a level 4 “stand-alone” side accessory plate. The multi-curved Rifle Strike plates have tested to threat level 4 protection as a “stand-alone” plate and, ESAPI, the only standard that tests for multi-hits on the same plate. Made of a proprietary ceramic material, the BlackHawk Armor Rifle Strike Plates for high threat situations can be worn in conjunction with soft armor or alone.

BlackHawk Focuses on the Most Common Cause



Mike Noell, President and CEO of Blackhawk Products Group announced the addition of Blackhawk’s Integrated Tourniquet System into their new Warrior Wear® apparel line. At recent events directed towards the Law Enforcement and Military Medical Community, Blackhawk announced that the revolutionary system was in the final phases of testing and should be available during Q1 of Calendar 2008.
“At Blackhawk we get up every morning dedicated to using our resources to help save lives,” explained Noell. “When medics and doctors that deal with combat and tactical medical needs see the system, they at once understand the immediate life saving potential. Four tourniquets in the pants and four tourniquets in the shirt (two in the short sleeve version), correctly positioned and oriented to the upper and lower extremities, are immediately accessible under existing gear and can be operated by the wearer, their buddy, or a medic.
Immediate application minimizes loss of blood, the single greatest medical problem resulting in death from injuries sustained to the extremities among our troops today. An additional feature is that our design allows users to train with the system over and over rather than having to replace each tourniquet after a single use, whether during training or in the field using the same system they will wear in tactical operation,” further explained Noell.
“The Integrated Tourniquet System (I.T.S.™) was the brainchild of Dr. Keith Rose. Dr. Rose, a tactical medicine consultant for Blackhawk’s Special Operations Division, Blackhawk Gear was in the military for several years on a forward surgical team and has extensive field experience in trauma and burns. He is currently working with humanitarian groups worldwide and worked directly with Blackhawk!’s R&D team to make sure that the system met real world requirements, and was also consistent with the medical training doctrine typically used by Military, Law Enforcement and the Civilian communities,” elaborated Eric Yeates, Director of Blackhawk’s R&D. “Blackhawk’s Injection Molding Team collaborated on the patent pending design of the Tourniquet System; our Apparel design teams designed the pants and shirts to carry the system, and our Factory’s rapid prototyping capability allowed us to get sample systems into the hands of users very early in the design process so we could incorporate their input from the beginning of the project,” concluded Yeates.
“The majority of preventable deaths come from loss of blood resulting from leg and arm wounds that is not protected by body armor. Sixty percent of preventable combat deaths are from extremity bleeding and 50-70% of all combat injuries are extremity wounds,” explained Dr. Rose*. The fact that you can always find the tourniquet with the Integrated Tourniquet system and the speed with which you can immediately apply it will dramatically impact not only loss of life but also the amount of time that it takes to recover from extreme blood loss injuries.” Dr. Rose further explains.
