Small Light low price. If its any thing like Gerber's recent history the handle will break off shortly taking out of the package like the Bear Grills crap. They Do not list the Steel type so I would guess its a low quality stainless that might hold an ok edge. Check out the Kershaw Skyline Fixed blade its cheaper better made, and better service, you will not be disappointed in that price range. While I'm not a fan of most of Cold Steel's offerings the Roach Belly and Hunter fixed blades they make are great little knives and worth a look. The Mora knives are great too I have a Classic I keep in my fishing rig and I've never met a fish that it could not clean well ones I've caught here in PA.
