Zach,
I have the Gerber Ridge (actually I have 2, one plain edge, one with a combo edge). Overall its a good little knife to have around for small tasks; opening mail, boxes etc. I keep mine on my key ring.

I have one also. I got it for the uniquness appeal and i feel it is a little too small. It is a good little cutter but it is too small for my hands. It locks up tight and is very well made but the black finish is not as tough as I had hoped and it doesnt take much to scratch the black paint that covers it. cool knife though

I think i might be more inclined to go with a KISS model.

I'm just looking for a knife for the nail pocket... :D

Backup to the leatherman... quick access to a blade
 
My dad has one and seems to like it a lot.
When he first got it, it didn't always lock up all the way. The blade would reach the detent and stop -- and it would feel "locked" (if you didn't push too hard!)
It sounds like that's gotten better with use.
 
Wow... it fix's it self... Can it sharpen its self too :cool:

Looks like i'm going to have to pick one up

Thanks
