Gerber ICON folder?

[JD Mandrell]

Anyone carry one of these BIG folders?

I'm not normally a Gerber fan, but my brother and his son-in-law are, so when I found these at a local store on final clearance for $4.00, I impulse grabbed one for each of us.

Wish the pocket clip was reversible for a southpaw though.

sure resembles the 2001 gerber spectre

whatever one might think of gerber, certainly can't go wrong at $4.00 plus guarantee to add...

I would buy 2 at $4
It has the design elements of a Harsey folding knife. Since Gerber did sell the Air Ranger designed by Harsey, I wonder whether this one is also his design.

Bear Claw...what 'local store' was that?

One of those stores with a big "K" on it.


I carried mine a few days now, not to bad for such a big folder, they kept the weight down and it's pretty slim.

As a Harsey-design and big folder fan, I tried to dig-up something about this recently too.

I've only seen one Youtube vid on it and one bad impression about it here. While I would've liked it too, I'm not a fan of liner locks. But at the price-point you got it, if it turns out to be a decently bearable EDC, good for you.

Now I remember where I've seen the design before, this knife is remarkably similar to Beretta Harsey.
