So quite a while Gerber has been a respectable, and in many cases, affordable solid quality knife. I don't know that I would have ever called them top shelf but certainly mid-shelf stuff.
I've been skimming through some of the posts on here and other forums and the consensus on Gerber knives is that there is no consensus.
Almost seems like the general opinion of Gerber has fluctuated based on model years.
So here's my question, Bear Grylls knives aside, what do you guys think of some of the newer offerings from Gerber in the folding, lock-blade, flipper and fixed blade knives. I guess by recent generations I mean the last 3 years till present day.
Really interested in hearing your thoughts and your reasons for or against these knives.
P.S. One of the reasons I'm asking is because my kid sister has her eye on a small Gerber Spring Assisted knife but I'm also just curious to hear others opinions.
