Gerber Armor Tanto Knife - 2010 BCS
Available Colors / Styles
Easy one-hand blade deployment and the classic Japanese tip shape make the Gerber Armor Tanto Knife an extremely efficient and strong knife. Maximum grip and cutting/puncture power transfer is achieved from the Micarta handle’s ergonomic shape with finger notches underneath and thumb ridges on top. Gerber’s legendary construction and design guarantees a strong, nearly unbreakable tip and the partially scalloped half of the blade is ideal for cutting.
Bottom Line: Centuries old blade design combined with modern tactical conveniences.

Likely to tweak this review with more use, but so far so good. Serrated edge cuts well. The action is kind of stiff, but maybe because I haven't used it much yet. I love the all flat black look. Feels light to me (compared to Kabars I guess lol), and clips nicely and low profile. Can't wait to find a use for it in the wilderness, hopefully not in dire circumstances though!
Great Feel & Look

I love this knife so far, the look and feel are great. I love that handle, it feels like a tough composite of some kind. My blade came a bit dull but I sharpened it up nicely. Its easy to open and close with one hand and the blade locks tight and feels secure. Its not too big either, it carries nicely in your pocket.
Change me.
