Gerber makes some of the most popular and reliable tools in the business (the Shard remains one of the all-time most popular items on the site), so a knife designed by knife maker Bill Harsey deserves a closer look. The Air Ranger comes with features with the makings of a staple EDC knife. A 3.3” 7Cr17MoV high-carbon, drop point blade resists corrosion during daily use, while having enough length and a shape for hardier tasks. You can deploy the Air Ranger from either hand thanks to its dual thumbstuds, and the blade secures with a liner lock. Crosshatch-textured G-10 handles come with this updated version of the Air Ranger and provide exceptional grip, working well for its purpose as a hardy everyday blade. They keep the knife secure in hand and keep things light while maintaining rugged durability. Its handle also include a few options for everyday carry, including a pocket clip and lanyard hole to suit your preference. Pick up this workhorse of an EDC knife in multiple handle and blade options at the link below.

I've had this knife since December and really like it. The action is super smooth and at this price I don't worry about beating it up. And because of that I probably carry it more than any other knife.

too bad 7cr17MOV is a chinese copy of 440A stainless, and that is a pretty subpar steel...
g10 handles on it is like throwing chrome rims on a 97 civic....
gerber once was a good company, but times change and they've fallen by the wayside like buck....
