Ever notice how alligators are completely indifferent to the weather? Well, these prized knives are kinda the same, because they perform to their fullest no matter what the conditions. Wet or dry, if there's a job to be done, the Gerber Gator Folder is more than up to it. But that's not just Gerber talking. Heck, when Gerber debuted the Gator Folders back in 1991, the insightful attendees at Blade Show named Gerbers' reptilian creation as the "Most Innovative Knife of the Year." And their competitors did the voting... Acclaimed those fourteen years ago and as popular as ever today, the Gator Folder employs advanced thermoplastics with an alligator skin texture to deliver a stunningly reliable, ultimately comfortable grip. Who could have guessed that the feel of reptile scales would be so satisfying? Anyway, there are seven models to choose from. Each with a lock-back mechanism. And each with a blade made of stainless steel that's as rugged as they come.
