GSARGear Review: Novatac Storm

June 7, 2011

  GSARGear Review: Novatac Storm The Novatac Storm is a very compact and versatile flashlight. Mine is still running fine after rigorous testing and daily carry for about a year.

Donate to GSAR GEAR Lumabiner: a Ground Search and Rescue Gear Review. This is the CRKT Lumabiner. Combination knife, carabiner, and LED flashlight, this little tool (approximately 5″ long open, 3.4″ closed”) is really just a handy thing to have for SAR.

Scissors/Medical Shears are really useful on GSAR missions, but most medical pouches have the shears holder inside the pockets, and getting them out in a hurry is always difficult, and a lot of times you end up spilling the contents all over the place.
