Gerber Airfoil, 2.7" Blade, Aluminum Handles
The Airfoil clip folding knife has a smooth feel in the pocket and a comfortable handle that emulates the shape of an airplane wing. Its equitable structure offers the folder excellent balance for solid application, and its liner lock gives you confidence that it won't close on your hand during use. A T-shaped thumb stud creates an ergonomic, comfortable lever so that deploying the manual opening knife is seamless and smooth. The blade contains a smartly ribbed spine along the upper bevel which provides tremendous utility and control for everyday tasks. Its refined drop point 2.7" blade is a perfect counterpoint to the hurdles of daily life when a sturdy edge is required. Blade length: 2.7". Overall length: 6.6". Weight: 2.2 oz.

In 1939 Joseph Gerber hired a local knife maker to build 25 sets of kitchen cutlery to be given as Christmas gifts. The knives were so popular that Joseph Gerber left his advertising agency to start Gerber Legendary Blades®. The unique style and high quality manufacturing of Gerber cutlery soon developed wide spread acclaim. In fact, Gerber Legendary Blades are the only cutlery on display in New York�?s famous Museum of Modern Art.
From very early on, Gerber collaborated with top knife designers, setting a standard of quality for everyone else to follow. Renowned designers such as Al Mar, Bob Loveless, Paul Poehlmann, "Blackie" Collins, William Harsey Jr. and Ernest Emerson have all designed knives for Gerber. In 2002 this tradition continued as Gerber released the Silver Trident�?, designed by Chief James "Patches" Watson (U.S.N. Ret.) and Bill Harsey Jr.
Today, Gerber continues to design and manufacture unique, high quality outdoor recreation products. In 2003 we are proud to introduce the next generation of multi-tools: the Recoil�? Auto-Plier. By constantly utilizing new technology and innovative design to develop new products, Gerber continues to be an industry leader.
