Ever notice how alligators are completely indifferent to the weather? Well these prized knives are kinda the same, because they perform to their fullest whether the conditions are wet or dry. If there's a job to be done, our Gator Folders are more than up to it. But that's not just Gerber talking. Heck, when we debuted the Gator Folders back in 1991, the insightful attendees at Blade Show named our reptilian creation as the "Most Innovative Knife of the Year." And these were our competitors doing 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. Overall Length: 8.58" Length Closed: 4.96" Length of Blade: 3.76" Weight: 5.4 oz. Blade Material: 420HC Stainless Steel Handle Material: Glass-filled nylon with Gator Grip overmold Blade Style: Clip Point Sheath Material: Ballistic nylon Blade Type: Serrated
