Tools and Hardware Reviews of Gerber 22-01035 3-Blade Stag Stockman Fine Edge Lock-Back Pocket Knife
Customer Review: very impressive Chinese pocketknife
Summary: 4 Stars
Thanks to the reviews on Amazon, I knew in advance that this Gerber was made in China. I ordered it fully prepared to send it back. However, after receiving it, there's no way it's going back. The fit and finish on this knife easily compares to that on Bulldog's, Hen & Rooster's, Queen, Case and perhaps even Schatt & Morgan. For those who know fine folders, that's saying a lot. What makes this one so impressive is that it sells for a third to a fourth of what those other brands sell for and actually has a few features not found on most small stockmen knives such as a locking main blade and etched bolsters. My sample "walks and talks", meaning that even the two slipjoint blades snap into place with the proper click. A caution on price, I've seen this knife for sale from $12 to $35 so pick your best deal. The one thing I don't like about it is the Sambar Stag handles, while handsome, are considerably thicker than what I've come to expect on a small stockman knife. This means it's a fat little thing that does create a minor pocket bulge and is perhaps a bit heavier than it really needs to be. But, at less than $20 with free shipping, I'd say this is a no-brainer. I may even order more of these as gifts.Customer Review: Great Knife...You Will Not Be Disappointed
Summary: 5 Stars
I am not a knife carrying type of person. You know...the kind that has a chain looped down their leg to secure a wallet in the back pocket. That is definitely not me! However I found the need to have a small and compact knife on my person for opening packages and other routine tasks.
I got this knife because it was on a Gold Box deal and paid less than $15 for it. I was not expecting much. I was wrong!! This is a Great little knife with 3 very different but fully functional blades. And, man, are they Sharp! The main blade locks in the open position and is easily folded back up again with the press of a spring activated finger press on the top part of the knife. It fits neatly in my pocket and I don't even feel it is there until I need it and then I am very glad to find it and pull it out.
My coworkers have been impressed with it and even knew the Gerber brand to be one of quality (which I had never heard of before). The antler horn body adds a nice touch of class too.
Overall I am very happy with this product and may even start to look for a silver chain to securely hold my wallet...hahaha.
Customer Review: High-quality, good value in a 3-blade pocket knife
Summary: 5 Stars
You get good value for the price with this high-quality, three-blade pocket knife. Having lost my single-blade pocket knife, I jumped on this great Amazon deal.
Features I like:
* The Sheep Foot and Spey blades are sturdy for their size and close firmly;
* The longest blade (2.75") comes with a locking mechanism;
* The knife features a genuine stag handle (that provides a textured grip) and filigree etched bolsters.
The knife is longer (6.13") and heavier (2.6 ounces) than my single-blade Old Timer but the knife still fits in the coin pocket of my Levi 501 jeans.
Rating: Five stars.
If you prefer a smaller pocket knife, I recommend my last pocket knife Schrade 3OTB Old Timer Buffalo Horn Bear Head, which is also available on Amazon. The Old Timer features a 2.2-inch stainless steel blade (3" closed) and weighs 1.5 ounces. It has Buffalo Horn handles with nickel silver bolsters and Old Timer inlay shield.
Customer Review: Must of got a bad one.Ken in Seattle
Summary: 5 Stars
I read all the reviews and jumped on the wagon as it sounded perfect. I bought it at Amazon which I like to order from and trust.Just got it today dec.,23,09. I agree ,it is a very good knife.But ,the workmanship on this one is very,very bad on the handles. The stag handles are gapped,loose,and (1)rivit is not flush and very pronounced .The handle is cracked at this rivit location. Also,the handles are not fared with the bolsters. In spite of what I have said about the knife I still feel it is a very good knife and give it a four star rating only because of the the finish work on the handles.I will return this for a replacement knowing these things do happen.Knowing also that the knife itself rates a five star,as it is a strong well made,and a very good looking 1/5/10 follow up on my review. I just rec. my replacement knife and am very happy with the knife and with amazon .I rec. my knife with no charge,and outstanding service.Five stars to both amazon and the knife.Customer Review: Tiny for a Stockman BUT high quality!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This knife is the traditional "Stockman" configuration of the three blades. The only possible downside is the small size. This knife is of very high quality construction. Everything about it is craftsmanship! The fit of the genuine stag scales is wonderful! No gaps! The polish is perfect! The hollow ground blades are razor sharp out of the box. The lazer etching on the bolsters is high quality, sharp, relief and very attractive besides.
This knife is wonderful if you want a smaller pocket knife for those "just in case" situations or as a quality gift to a youngster for his/her first knife. This knife is suitable for a collector given the quality and the use of genuine stag on the scales. At the sale price offered (about $12.00) this item is a steal!!!
