Gerber Strongarm: survival knives you can rely on
The iconic Strongarm series is Gerber's best-selling collection of fixed survival knives. This knife was designed for those who need to be able to rely on their knife. Whether you are planning to enter the jungle, roam the desert or visit the woods next door: the Strongarm will help you out. It's no surprise to us that this knife has been used by first responders and military personnel for years.
Features of the Gerber Strongarm
The Strongarm was designed with tactical purposes in mind, which becomes clear when looking at its features.
420HC-steel blade with Cerakote coating
The 420HC steel blade is nice and solid. At the same time it is not too large to carry out simple tasks around the camp. The matt-black ceramic coating protects the blade from rust and prevents reflections. The tang of the blade seamlessly merges with the handle. It slightly protrudes from the handle. Great when breaking something. For example, breaking a window or collecting cockles that are stuck on a rock.
FRN handle
The handle is made from FRN: glass-reinforced nylon. Light-weight and rock-solid. For additional grip this Gerber is enhanced with an additional rubber overmould around this core. An additional layer with checkered pattern offers enough grip. This is especially useful in wet conditions when your hands are slippery.
MOLLE-compatible sheath
Notable is the very elaborate sheath that is included when you buy the Strongarm. Left-handed, right-handed, vertical or horizontal on your belt or MOLLE vest: the Strongarm will feel at home anywhere. You can attach it to basically anything.
