Tools and Hardware Reviews of Gerber 22-48484 Mini Paraframe Knife, Serrated Edge
Customer Review: Cute knife
Summary: 4 Stars
I have read many reviews of knives like this one, and reviews of this one itself. After that I bought several of these Mini Paraframes. Keep in mind, there are many models of this same knife. Some with straight edges, some with serrated, I need/use serrated.
I should also mention, I have very few example to compare with, I simply realized I really needed a small pocket style knife in several places in my life. That all being said:
Pros
- This knife is good looking, (I gave a few of mine away as gifts to those in need).
- Light
- Functional (clip, serrated edge, sharp).
Cons
- Open it with respect.
- Close it with more respect (it is sharp, and requires one to use both hands to move the blocking clip)
- It rusts (mind you , I live in Hawaii, everything rusts, but, I expected this to be a little more hardy. I simply have to hit it with a little steel wool once a year).
I'm sure there is a much better knife out there, that opens/closes easily, etc. Every once in a while I ask someone that clearly "live with their pocket knife" what they like about their choices , and I never see that it is something I personally need or want, so I'm sticking with this design until something is proven to me. I also prefer the Leatherman Wave as a separate tool. I have about over 10 (again, also as gifts for others).

About Gerber: A History of Innovation
Savvy. Moxie. Craftsmanship. Attention to detail. These are just a few of the company traits that have contributed to Gerber's emergence as a world leader in outdoor gear. Joseph Gerber started Portland, Oregon's Gerber Advertising back in 1910, and one Christmas, he hired a local knife-maker to craft 25 sets of kitchen cutlery as client gifts. The knives were so popular Mr. Gerber ultimately left his agency to launch Gerber Legendary Blades in 1939.
It makes sense, really. An idea man gets the idea of a lifetime and turns it into a major outdoor brand--one that commands respect among knife lovers and knife makers alike. And now that same high regard is spreading in new directions, in the form of many outstanding products such as tools, personal L.E.D. lighting, and more
