TradLabs FROST axe (First Responder On Scene Tools) combines seven of the most common firefighting tools in use today. Its unique design supports attacking a hydrant, hose and coupling work, forcible entry, vertical and horizontal ventilation, and self-rescue-all with a single tool.

Rapid prototyping and direct feedback helped shape the FROST axe every step of the way until it was deemed field-ready. Each axe is made out of solid AR400 steel-the same metal used in construction equipment and vehicle armor-and fitted with a fire-resistant handle. Because it is made out of such durable material, each FROST axe comes with a lifetime warranty. www.tradlabs.com

Channellock Inc. CHANNELLOCK® 86 NINE-INCH RESCUE TOOL was named a “Best of What’s New” by Popular Science magazine. Based on real-world feedback from first responders, the new 86 Rescue Tool is designed for easy, intuitive, one-handed operation in high-stress situations.

It is American-made and combines the versatile linemen’s plier with more than five other tools into one so first responders have to carry only one piece of equipment to accomplish multiple tasks. Features include a gas shut-off slot that fits almost any valve, a spanner wrench that tightens and loosens up to five-inch hose couplings, and a jaw design that accommodates many shapes and provides maximum grip. www.channellock.com. 800-724-3018
