If we tell you that this engineering masterpiece was inspired by the bridges of Portland, Oregon—we've got more than our share, here—don't make the mistake of thinking that Gerber's gotten all misty-eyed and romantic. On the contrary, the Suspension has all the down-and-dirty performance characteristics a tough guy would expect.
This is a classic workhorse with spring-loaded pliers, our patented Saf.T.Plus® component locking system, a ballistic nylon sheath, and the very same structural integrity that goes into every Gerber tool.
Oh sure, it's a sleek looking son-of-gun. And the open-frame configuration is something of a break-though where the industry is concerned. But just because its got nice lines, there's no reason you cant use it in some pretty ugly situations. In fact, we dare ya.
Gerber Legendary Blades begain in 1939, 70 years later they have become one of the most trusted brands in the industry. In 2009 they have rolled out some great innovative new products. At Gerber they know that their future is just as important as their past. They are committed to being the knives, tools, lights and equipment future generations will rely on.
