Cadex pulled out a mean looking pocketable device that looks like it could be a part of the most wicked rail system ever, a ninja weapon, or a torture device. In reality, the mundanely named “7-Inch Hook” fills the need for a grappling hook that can be quietly placed for covert entry into buildings or compounds.

Simply snap open the device, place it, then hang a rope ladder on it with some weight so the carbide tips bite into the wall and up you go, all for about $850. To deploy it on low walls, place the aprx. 1″ post post in the barrel of a rifle and lift it into place, for structures up to 3 stories use an available lightweight Easton aluminium pole in place of the rifle barrel.
