Loose gerber knife
Item for the third time asking has a loose blade. It's not attached well at all. But otherwise it's has no other issues.
AustraliaI’m not impressed the grind of the knife. For $200 i’d expect the blade to be sharpened correctly. It’s not straight
AustraliaFast ball fast flip
Gerber Fastball flipper, folding knife feels good in hand. It is slender and light enough, to be a viable EDC knife. The pocket clip is of good size, and enables deep pocket carry, however at first was too tight to slide onto loose clothing pockets. The stone wash titanium finish looks great when new, however scratches easy and being rough texture, grips on clothing and makes harder to pull out or to holster again. A smoother more hard waring finish would be better suited for an EDC knife. The single finger flipper, brings the blade into action as quick as any knife I have seen. Complete with ball bearing pivot point, deploying blade is price of cake! With automatic knives prohibited in Australia, this is definitely the next best thing. Lighting fast. The blade has a 7.5 out of 10 sharpness rating. This is fairly good being a factory sharpen. Overall this is a very good, fairly priced knife. If single handed, manual blade deployment is your priority, the Gerber Fast Ball leads the game.
