Cons: None

Great quality at a great price

This is my EDC for work - cutting plastic banding, boxes, twine, and shaving composite materials on the job site. Solid, quality construction, at a great price. I was worried about the G10 handle tearing up my pocket, but a little fine tuning with some sand paper in the right spots did the trick. The weight of the knife is surprisingly light for its size. I would definitely recommend this knife to someone who’s looking for a rugged, reliable work horse of a knife. 5 stars all day

Great Knife

This knife is one of those little secrets that not many people know about. This is an incredible knife and now one of my favorites. I've had other high end knives but the quality of this one is unmatched. I'm sold on Gerber. Great blade and handle. I use this in Law enforcement and it has never failed, never. This is my go to knife.

THE BEST

I trust this with my life every day. I am a volunteer firefighter Medic and volunteer search and rescue it has been used a lot and i love it. It is not easy to keep sharp because of the hard steel. check your state and local laws, being automatic it maybe illegal in your area.

THE BEST

I absolutely love this thing highly recommended, I have had mine for over three years put it through an insane amount of abuse. My only complaint is being a very hard steel is difficult to get an edge on it. But once you have it sharp it stays sharp. Make sure you to check your state and local laws because this could be illegal in your state It would be a felony in California to have this knife on you.

Buy a Kershaw instead! Gerber is not worth the money!

This knife has disappointed in every way! The knife arrived with a dull blade. The automatic action is slow and wimpy. If the auto action of the Gerber was compared to the auto action of the Kershaw it would be like an “everyday Joe” (Gerber) taking on Mike Tyson (Kershaw) in the boxing ring! This was my son’s everyday carry knife and as a first responder, he used it often. Within 3-months the pocket clip broke. When I reached out to Knifecenter for support, they said it was past the 30-day window and I had to go to Gerber…this process took about a month and included me having to send the entire knife back for just a pocket clip!! While this knife was getting repaired, my son used my Kershaw…so guess who is stuck with the Gerber now? Yup! No way is old dad getting the Kershaw back! This knife is not worth the money! Buy a Kershaw instead!
