Gerber STL 2.0

[caine]

Little something I picked up a few weeks ago. Cost me $9.95

For that price I got a centered blade no blade play and a soild lock. Like alot of factory blades the edge was polished which I don't care for so about 3 sec on my sharpener it was how I like them. I took this knife out today and played around with it on some small twigs just to get the feel of how it would handle and it was perfect for its size. I am normally not a big Gerber fan ,but this was on point. I recommend this little blade for PSK kits, EDC, and just overall small stuff. It wont replace my Case CV Peanut but its close.







Overall Length: 5.1"
Blade Length: 2.1"
Closed Length: 3"
Weight: 1 oz.
Lock Mechanism: Frame lock
Blade Style: Drop point

Almost forgot. It was alittle stiff when new but alittle oil fixed it. The pivot can be lossened or tighten. Also and some point I am going to take it all apart and remove all the black and give it a scotchbight look.

Pretty cool little knife, I'll have to check it out. I have a Gerber Ridge Knife and a Harsey Air Ranger I've had for right at 8 years and both have held up great.

I've had one in my lifevest PSK for a while, got it specifically for that purpose as its about the smallest, thinnest, PSK capable knife I could find.

+1 here. A great little keychain knife.

I got mine years ago when my roommates and I wandered into Canadian Tire and we all wound up buying knives for each other. Good times.
Even today, the lockup is rock solid and there's no vertical or lateral blade play. It never could hold a hair-shaving edge worth a damn, but the working edge lasts long enough to make the knife useful. Being a fan of the framelock as I am, I am willing to overlook the 440A part.
