Gerber StrongArm Black is Gerber's best-selling fixed blade knife for good reason. Made in the USA, the StrongArm has earned its place in the standard equipment of soldiers, law enforcement, hunters and hikers around the world. User experience speaks for itself: the knife's durability and reliability have been put to the test on long wilderness expeditions, in professional use and under demanding conditions, and it has proven time and again to be a tool you can trust.
The knife is made in the USA under Gerber's own high quality control. Since 1939, Gerber has built its reputation as a knife manufacturer that combines decades of experience with continuous product development. This is reflected in StrongArm's finishes, materials and details - each knife goes through rigorous quality control before it reaches the user.
The blade is made of 420HC stainless steel and finished with a ceramic coating that reduces reflections and protects the blade from corrosion. The smooth blade lends itself to a wide range of tasks from general mowing to more demanding field use. Full tang construction means that the steel is continuous throughout the knife, from the blade to the end of the handle, making the knife extremely durable and reliable even in heavy-duty use. The end of the handle has a metal striking surface that can be used to break a window, for example, in an emergency.
The handle has a diamond-textured rubber coating for a secure grip in all conditions - wet, cold or sweaty hands. The grip feel is well thought out and the tool quickly gains a firm grip, even with gloves on.
- Multifunctional MOLLE-compatible socket system
The StrongArm comes with a revolutionary socket system that was once the first of its kind. MOLLE compatible, it can be attached in several ways depending on the situation: vertically with MOLLE attachment, horizontally with detachable belt loops on the belt, or in the traditional drop-leg position with nylon laces. The secondary attachment ensures that the knife stays firmly in the sheath even during active movement.
