  • Out of Gerbers new releases this year, this was the one i wanted the most for some reason. It seemed really old school to me. The Gerber Straightlace is becoming my "go to" for a gentleman's blade carry.
    Classic and simplistic. Just a wonderful blade.
    I have left a link to Gerbers webstore if you wish to purchase this one.

    Just picked one up today.
    My thoughts.
    1.and this is huge it's legal in uk.
    2.it never seems to get mentioned and its another biggy...it has a half stop.
    3.the blade shape is close to a sheepsfoot which I find more useful and easier to sharpen on the fly.
    4.pocket clip is short but very tight which as a trucker I like.
    5.just below the cutting blade there is a finger pinch so if it does fold a little it's not taking skin with its kiss.
    6.its a very smooth and almost silent close when pushed.
    7.lanyard hole is placed in a position that puts wrist strap on the correct place on wrist in a more natural way.
    8.it can be closed with one hand, most are over tight on the spring so you end up using your leg, and over the years I have dropped, cut, or transferred the crap off my knife on to my pants.
    9. The price is reasonable for this and I wouldn't cry if I lost,broke or had it stolen.
    10. It feels nice in the hand and hot spots are not bad at all
    Things i hate.
    1.The coloured plastic detailing...thinking of taking mine out and replacing with brass.
    2.i am not sold on the powder coating ....I can see this scratching over time.
    3.all the screw heads are a weird size I do not have.
    4.biggy....the blade steel could be better but that's being picky.
    5. The reduced the weight inside but I really would have preferred that extra weight in my hand.
    So my score out of 10 is 8.5.
    If I paid more than I did it would have been lower.
    But for a general use pocket knife that does not scream look at me and sound like something from martial arts film I would recommend it.

    This knife is cool and the stripe for some reason gives me Cub Scout vibes like something I would have had in my pocket as a kid. I’m eyeing it right now because Amazon gave me a 10 dollar off credit thanks for the video review

    She's definitely pretty. Almost as pretty as Case knives. Now let's grab the popcorn and get ready to read the comments! 🍿🍿

    I love the orange strip. It looks a lot better with the blue instead of the green.

    Well it's a nice , sharp looking blade, I'm from the 60s and 70s, so I like the Orange strip, reminds me of my old 75 TA. You know it's like everything out there, some bad quality does slip though inspections, it happens. I do read most reviews on products that I'm thinking of buying, but lets face it about 30% are just from complainers. Nothing wrong with the product except for, things like. I thought it would be a darker color, I got it two days late, the package was damaged but the item was OK and so on. You have to take some ones review with a grain of salt. Again there are people that just like to complain about everything and point out the superficial shit.! I'm not a fan of a slip joint, but that blade looked fine to me.

      Can’t argue with any of that brother!

    I like this knife. I'm a little bias towards traditional knives being a through back myself lol. I do like the look like you not sure about the plastic piece. I kinda see where they come up with it if it were solid with different colors at the end it would have been quite a bit more expensive.

      I’m actually really liking this one. For a first time experience with a slip joint it was awesome

    7Cr17MoV blade steel with guaranteed lack of quality control.
