Why Did Gerber Have To...?

[Guyon]

...go and mess up a really classy looking knife with a strap holder at the butt of the knife?

I'd buy this Freeman Stag Drop Point (S30V) if it had a more traditional butt.

Hey Pork Chop---just grind that thing off. Or cut it off with one of your 50 Busse knives. I'm here to help!!

Modify it slightly and you could pop the cap off a bottle of your favorite ale.

I like it. Always liked the BRKT Northstar & Fox River for that feature, though this one does look like a beer bottle opener. Then again being a Gerber, wouldn't that bend it - just kidding.

Howdy,

I know this is an old thread, but I just got a Freeman Stag knife and had the same complaint about the lanyard.

I took the advise offered on this thread and completely removed it via dremil tool, die grinder and sandpaper!

MUCH better in both looks and feel!

And here I was thinking "Why did they have to put that cheezy stag on that classy looking knife. I'd buy it in a second if it was micarta!"
