the knife 08/02/2007 Reviewer: Rance im fourteen and love the knife it is the best one i have

Best budget knife I own! 07/14/2010 Reviewer: Knife User I have had this knife for 2 years and it works great. This knife is extremely sharp right out of the packaging. Keeps an edge well. THe only problem that I have had is that I cought the clip on a chair when I was getting out and it bent quite a bit, to the point where it no longer stays on my pocket. However replacements and fixes for this issue are very easy and cheap. I will more than likely continue to carry this knife around until I have the funds to buy a better one.

Gerber strength 06/16/2010 Reviewer: Gravelor I've had this knife for almost 3 years now and it has always kept a sharp edge. After some abuse the black finish scratches off but it took a year and a half before that started to happen. I've put mine through everything i could throw at it to include skinning deer, squirells, and any other game i came accross to sheet rock, tires and flooring. I keep this knife on my side everyday for its reliability. Definetely worth every cent.

Gotta love this knife 03/18/2011 Reviewer: Knife Collector This is a great knife that is among the best of Gerber's folding blades. It is sharp right out of the package (and i accidentally cut my thumb while testing the speed of the open/closing), and is a good sized knife. The only flaw is a small one, and that being that the thumb studs are a little on the small side. But i love the feel and look of the knife, the inserts give it a feel i haven't felt in any other knife. And by the way, i got the last one in their stock after it was discontinued. All in all, I'd give it a healthy five out of five.
