Gerber
This is a perfect example of the lack of quality control that's pervasive with Gerber products. I have to use two hands to open AND shut this fish sinker. I've worked it for a hour after applying oil to the thin copper (?) washers that serve as the bearing point of this knife. Nada- no go. Takes a square headed bit to loosen the one-sided pivot and I don't have one. Oh well, I'm going to keep it for a shining example of why I don't purchase Gerber products.
