Gerber Profile

[jtluttrell]

Picked up a new fixed blade. 4" blade. Kinda wish it was partially serrated but I still like it.

I would really like to have one of these. I think they are great looking little knives. My local wal mart and other places never have them, though. I guess I could always buy onine.

[Oh Shoot]

I've got the fixed AND the folding Gerber Profile.

Both very serviceable knives. I love the grips, both for the suface texture and the shape.

The fixed blade is 4" and a little wider than the 3.5" folder, but both are same thickness. Fixed model has nylon sheath, but it's very serviceable, holds well with no rattle.

The folder has a very simple lockup mechanism but is really tight both vertical and horizontal, opens quickly with a nice snick, too.

They're both at Gander Mtn for about 5 bucks more than online.

Look on the bright side, plain edges are a heck of a lot easier to sharpen;)

The folder looks like a great knife too, but needs a pocket clip.

It comes with a nylon belt carrier.

I don't use belt clip on folding knifes (or belt holsters), have taken them off the Cold Steel's I've carried.

Always carry in left rear pocket; knives fit perfectly against wallet and out side edge of pocket.

Been carrying the Gerber for a couple months now, put my Cold Steel Voyager aside for it.

Amazon has this knife for $19.31. Plus you can sign up for an Amazon Prime trial membership and get it second day for nothing.

Just placed my order! Thanks!

Was just over at Academy in 'Nooga ... they had the folder Profile for 19.99.

Had Buck 110's for 26 something.

I paid $18 at Wally, might have been luck though. Although the crickets I bought were not at all lucky.

check out what nutnfancy did to his profile, pretty cool looking

I looked at the folding version at Gander Mountain yesterday and the lack of a pocket clip was the only thing that kept it from coming home with me. I still may change my mind and get one, anyway.

Added monkey fist to profile. Not bad for first attempt I think.

Nice.

I like the Profile folder, but I really like the fixed blade model. Pretty darn serviceable sheath for nylon, too.

Mine arrived last week. I tend to agree with alot of Nutnfancy's reviews, but I don't see how he hates the grip on this knife. It's not the best grip, but I don't see how 550 cord would be any better. The rubber is very grippy and fits my hands pretty well. Even in the cord was woven extremely tight, all I see it doing it slowly loosening up and sliding. The sheath is pretty darn nice for $18 if you ask me.

I plan on sending mine off to a local racing shop that does hydrograpic printing and getting a gray/black/white urban camo treatment.

Yeah, I bought it/them BECAUSE I liked the grip so much.

Pics if you do!

Picked one of these up on Tuesday and I love it. I dunno what nutnfancy is complaining about on the handle as I think it feels great in my hand.
