The Gerber Straightlace is a modern slipjoint pocket knife. Striking is the excellent price-quality ratio. In this range it will be difficult to find a comparable knife, for an even better price. The design is distinctive and colourful. You open the Gerber Straightlace with two hands. When opened a slipjoint provides resistance against unintentional closing. However, it won't completely block. As such you can legally carry the Gerber Straightlace in many places.
With a 7.2 cm blade you have enough reach to carry out many daily tasks. Opening a box, peeling an apple or as a practical tool while working in or around the house: the Straightlace can do it all. The blade is made from polished 7Cr17MoV-steel. A stainless type of steel you can easily sharpen yourself. The handle is made from a combination of aluminium with plastic colour accents.
All in all the Gerber Straightlace is one of the most interesting slipjoints in our range. A very cool pocket knife for an amazing price.
