Switchblade® Frameset
Item SKU: $679.00 – $690.00
The Switchblade System of modular packs is designed to be customized to the soldier and to the mission. The removable, adjustable frameset and the stackable components that lie at the core of the Switchblade’s design are unlike anything before it in terms of simplicity and effectiveness. Insert the Frameset into the Molle Panel, load the Molle Panel with irregular or mission-specific items, and then top it off with a Raid Pack for personal sustainment items.
At the heart of the Switchblade System is the modular, adjustable frameset, consisting of the Patented CHIEF Lite carbon fiber framesheet, padded shoulder straps, and a pivoting waistbelt.. This is the platform on which all carriage solutions are mounted. (Patents: US 8,678,258 B1, US 10,231,534 B1, D630011, and D833749)
New GEN 2 (pictured) features redesigned shoulder straps, frame attachments and belts for ease in fitment and use. We’ve also developed a larger set of shoulder straps and belt and female specific sizes as well.
GEN 1 currently available.

Seth D. Ð Army –
I’ve been a die-hard Mystery Ranch fan for a few years now, especially when wearing body armor. Today I had the chance to use the [Switchblade] pack with armor for a 10 mile hike, after removing that back pad… let me just say I think it outperformed my loved MR bags. Kind of comparing apples to oranges, however it was extremely solid. I’m a Joint Fires Observer in a Stryker unit. I find that the ability to utilize the Molle Panel with a radio pouch and some other small pouches for batteries and such; and then being able to completely separate my sustainment gear with the main bag is awesome. It allows me to able leave my sustainment gear on the truck when performing and assault or short duration patrol. Or even leaving it in a cache when performing dismounted OPs. Having that separation has proved to be an awesome utility.
