Tools and Hardware Reviews of Gerber 06149 Folding Gator-Mate Clip Point Knife

Customer Review: Good Knife for but handle only last 10 years.
Summary: 4 Stars

I have had this Knife for nearly 13 years! I have used it as an everyday carry knife for all that time. However about 3 years ago, when the Knife was about 10 years old the rubber coating on the handle began to flake and peel off. I tried hard to keep it from happening. Last year, when the Knife was 12 years old, the handle coating just began to disintegrate and fall of as sort of a powder type residue. It made a huge mess, leaving this black rubbery dust in my pocket, on my hands, and in the sheath when I used it. (Yes the sheath shows signs of wear but is still quite functional.) The residue from the handle began to jam up the moving parts of the knife preventing it from locking, or even opening. So I just decided to rub off all the coating. I was able to do this with my bare thumbs. It just fell off in a nasty powdery mess. I had to pull the coating from the inside of the handle out with needle nose players, the only part of the coating that remained in tact. Anyway I still use the knife every day and I am left with a light weight plastic type handle similar to Gerber's L.S.T. model, but shaped different.
