Sharpens up nicely, similar ergonomics to a benchmade mini griptillian
The blade came decently sharp but after a few rounds on a 10000 grit stone it was razor sharp. Can’t say much about the edge retention since I've mostly used it as a box killer. The action is nice and snappy, a bit stiff at first. The pivot lock is amazing and the internals look mostly the same as a benchmade. The safety slide lock isn’t really that good, as when it’s engaged there’s almost no resistance needed for it to snap back to the unlocked position. The scales are made of some sort of metal and aren’t too grippy, but that isn’t such a big concern since it’s more to an EDC carry than an outdoorsman knife. Overall a good knife if you need to do light to moderate cutting.

Gerber, the name speaks for itself. Great quality knives (and other things) at a fair price with a great warranty. This thing is sharp, feels good in the hand, opens quickly and easily. The only issue I have is with my hands/fingers and the locks. The safety lock isn’t really an issue with the exception of being annoying to me, but the lock itself I have issues with as you have to slide both sides back at the same time and my hands don’t like that. Otherwise I have no other issues or complaints, it’s not the knife, it’s me. I would recommend this knife. The price was right, got shipped out and received quickly. I’d buy it again for a gift for someone. Nice knife.

You can tell this is a quality knife as soon as you open the packaging. It's sharp, very comfortable, and stays put with the clip. I lost a nice buck knife because the clip didn't hold well for pocket wear. This one doesn't slip at all. Sharpens nicely. My only complaint is this stupid safety. For all people that need a safety on a knife. Please do all of us regular people a favor and don't buy one. Im considering trying to remove it, hopefully I can without damaging this knife. Otherwise this is a great pocket knife I'd prefer just a bit smaller version for my use cutting plastic seals off semi trailers. the safety constantly locks in my pocket so when I go to use it I have to take the extra step of unlocking it. Not an ideal situation. Great knife! Dumb safety.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best pocket knife ever
Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2024
Style: Serrated EdgeColor: BlackVerified Purchase
I’ve gone through many pocket knives over the years. I always have one in my pocket and use them for way more than they are intended. My last one had I gone through 6 of the same knife as I beat on them a lot. That knife got discontinued and I was looking. I bought 6 or seven knives until I found this.

I love the spring assisted index finger opening. I’ve never really liked a serrated blade, but the half serated feature is pretty nice. This knife is super strong and durable. I waited 4 months before my review. I love the knive. It fits well and the bit of mass is nice.

Now, I had to make a few modifications to make me love it. A pocket knife does not have a belt clip as that got caught on my pockets and added unnecessary bulk. I cut that off with a grinder and that solved my problem. The next problem was the safety feature on it. A little thing you have to hit to allow the knife to open. What a total pain in the ass. I assumed it was a cheap piece of plastic and I could just break it out - WRONG. It was solid metal and a bitch to remove. I went through two drill bits to drill it out, then pried it off. Since then, I love the knive. A big change from previous ones, although a higher price point. I was used to the $12 knives. I’ll never go back.

I'm in the military and carry this knife every day, including in the field. It has gone through a lot and survived a lot while remaining mostly unscathed. The locking feature takes a while to get used to but is extremely nice and prevents it from stabbing you by accident. The blade retains an edge really well. The pocket clip is reversible and has yet to bend out of shape. It feels great in the hand and is easy to open and close one handed with either hand. I've carried various knives over the years and this is hands down the best one I've ever carried. I would highly recommend it for anyone.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's nice, but....
Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2022
Style: Serrated EdgeColor: BlackVerified Purchase
The fit and finish is good. Sharp edge. The open assist is solid and strong, it does not take too much effort to open. I really like the blade release to fold back up. Seems like it will last longer than then the standard thin metal since it is more of a shaft than spring, and ambidextrous as well! The knife feels solid and functional in the hand.

But...

1. The safety is a gimmick that slides on when you don't want it on. Bad idea for sure.

2. The pocket clip is upside down! The pictures show the orientation compared to a utility knife and my old pocket knife. I have to learn to open it and put it away upside down!

Both negatives are annoying and tempting me to send it back. But it feels good in the hand when using it... As it is I will probably keep it until I find something better and use it as a back up in the pack or something.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tolles Messer, wenn man den Klappmechanismus verstanden hat
Reviewed in Germany on June 25, 2023
Style: AssistedColor: AluminumVine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
Dieses Gerber Messer ist nicht mein erstes Produkt von der Firma, bisher hatte ich ein kleines Multitool, dass sich nicht gut öffnen ließ, aber sonst super schön ist und sehr praktisch.
Das Gerber Klappmesser das ich hier bewerte wird in einer Kartonage verpackt geliefert und ist mit einem schwarzen Kabelbinder an der innenliegenden Pappe befestigt. Auf meinem befand sich etwas bräunliches, vermutlich Öl, das sich zum Glück leicht entfernen ließ. Da dies mein erstes Messer in dieser Art ist, war mir nicht klar wie der Schließmechanismus funktioniert. In der Anleitung finden sich dazu keine Hinweise. Diese mahnt lediglich zur Vorsicht im Umgang und rät eine Aufbewahrung, in einem Schaft und dass man das Klappmesser nicht oberhalb der stumpfen Seite der Klinge belasten sollte.
Der Mechanismus funktioniert wie folgt:
Klappmesser öffnen: Der kleine Stift muss in Richtung des Griffrands zeigen, dann ist es entsichert und man kann die Metallnase auf der Oberseite vorsichtig zu sich hin ziehen. Das Messer klappt in zwei Stufen nach draußen. Erst öffnet es ein wenig, und wenn man es dann weiter geradezieht federt es fast von alleine weiter und rastet dann ein. Jetzt ist es benutzbar und steht fest. Die Klinge wird im Innern des Korpus durch einen Federmechanismus in Position gehalten, der aussieht wie ein flaches schwarzes Metallstück, weniger als 1mm dick.
Um die Klinge einzuklappen muss man diese seitliche Feder am Klingenansatz an die Seite nach außen drücken, und die Klinge klappt automatisch ein Stück ein. Dann kann man umgreifen und sie ganz einklappen. So ganz ideal finde ich es nicht, dass man so nah an der scharfen Klinge greifen muss zum einklappen.
Sobald das Messer eingeklappt ist, kann man den kleinen Metallstift an der oberen Seite nach innen schieben, also zur Mitte des Messers. Dieser greift dann in die Klinge und sichert sie.
Bei dem neuen Messer funktioniert dies einwandfrei. Vorsichtshalber sollte man es wohl kontrollieren. In der Anleitung wird darauf hingewiesen, dass das Messer nicht mit kaputtem Klappmechanismus verwendet werden sollt. Sicherlich eigentlich selbstverständlich.
Die Schneide des Messers ist ab Werk super scharf. Es ist ein tolles Werkzeug, zum Schnitzen oder als täglicher Begleiter beim Camping oder in der Natur unterwegs. Sehr schön flach und auch leicht.
Das tolle matte Finish hat keinen besonderen Gripp, dennoch kann man das Messer gut festhalten. Ein sehr schönes Produkt, das ausgesprochen gut verarbeitet ist. Deswegen trotz fehlender Erläuterungen in der Anleitung gibt es die volle Punktzahl.

4.0 out of 5 stars sehr scharf, angenehm hochwertig
Reviewed in Germany on December 11, 2023
Style: AssistedColor: AluminumVine Customer Review of Free Product( What's this? )
Das Gerber Spire Aluminium ist ein sehr schlichtes Einhandmesser mit reverse Tantoklinge.
Sowohl im geschlossenen als auch im offenen Zustand lässt sich die Klinge über einen kleinen Knubbel fixieren. Der muss allerdings in den meisten Fällen von beiden Seiten des Griffes bewegt werden, anstonsten verkantet er sich und lässt sich kaum schieben.
Der Öffnungsmechanismus ist federgestützt wodurch die Klinge angenehm schnell in ihrer endgültigen Position einrastet. Beim Einklappen wird ab dem halben Weg ebenfalls die Feder wieder in ihre gespannte Position gedrückt.
Neben dem Fixierungspin wird die Klinge außerdem über einen recht dünnen Linerlock in ihrer offenen Position fixiert. Der ist für meinen Geschmack aber zu tief im Gehäuse versteckt, sodass er sich nur so gerade mit dem Fingernagel des Daumens wieder löst. Muss man die Klinge öfter schließen dürfte das schnell unangenehm werden.
Die Klinge an sich an ein optisch sehr schönes, mattes Finish und ist im Auslieferungszustand bereits sauscharf geschliffen.
An sich also eine wirklich schöne Klinge, aber für rund 65€ hätte ich mir noch ein kleines bisschen mehr Qualität gewünscht.

 Ich hatte das Glück, das Gerber Taschenmesser mit Gürtelclip zu testen, ich bin echt begeistert. Dieses Taschenmesser überzeugt auf ganzer Linie.

Beginnen wir mit den positiven Aspekten. Die Verarbeitung des Messers ist herausragend. Es ist offensichtlich, dass hier viel Wert auf Qualität und Präzision gelegt wurde. Das Messer ist hochwertig und präzise gebaut, was für eine zuverlässige Leistung und Langlebigkeit sorgt. Ich frage mich ob hier mit 3D Druck gearbeitet wurde da man leichte Rillen erkennt und Eigenschaften des 3D Drucks. Der leichte und doch robuste Aufbau macht das Tragen und Handhaben des Messers angenehm. Und der Look? Absolut umwerfend! Das Messer hat einen enorm coolen Look, gerade die Klinge sieht richtig Hammer aus. Auch für Sammler ein muss.

Die Öffnung des Messers geht, wie man in dem Video sehen kann, spielend leicht von der Hand, was bei täglichem Gebrauch ein großer Vorteil ist. Zudem verfügt das Messer über eine Verriegelung, die ungewolltes Öffnen verhindert.

Nun zu den neutralen Aspekten. Leider bin ich von der Schärfe nicht ganz überzeugt. Das ist zwar soweit in Ordnung könnte aber von Haus aus ein gutes Stück schärfer sein!

Weitere negative Punkte sind mir nicht aufgefallen.

Die Öffnung des Messers geht, wie man in dem Video sehen kann, spielend leicht von der Hand, was bei täglichem Gebrauch ein großer Vorteil ist. Zudem verfügt das Messer über eine Verriegelung, die ungewolltes Öffnen verhindert.

Nun zu den neutralen Aspekten. Leider bin ich von der Schärfe nicht ganz überzeugt. Das ist zwar soweit in Ordnung könnte aber von Haus aus ein gutes Stück schärfer sein!

Weitere negative Punkte sind mir nicht aufgefallen.
