When a knife is as sharp as a razor, you know it’s a good choice for everyday carry. But very few knives in this category actually look like old-school razors, and that’s a shame. The design of razors of old had a lot of class, and their utility went far beyond the everyday close shave. But don’t fret, if you’re looking for an everyday carry knife that evokes the aesthetics of an old time razor blade, you’re in luck. The new Gerber Jukebox plays off the style of an old folding razor, with a manual opening and razor utility blade. But it’s not all ancient throwback design: the Jukebox also contains some quality of life features that make it an immensely practical knife to carry around in the present day.

Like some of the razor blades of old, the Gerber Jukebox contains an extended tang on the blade which allows for an easy one-handed opening. Unlike the razor blades of old, the Jukebox has a liner lock mechanism built into the handle, that holds the 2.7“ 7Cr17MoV blade in place when things get a little rough. The utility blade shape makes it good for chopping and slicing, and the steel composition makes it easy to maintain after you cut through a bunch of cardboard boxes with it. When you’re done with the blade, close it up and admire the gorgeous acrylic scaling on the handle that evokes that classic tortoiseshell aesthetic, and then slip it into your pockets discreetly with its tip-up deep carry pocket clip.

With the Gerber Jukebox in hand, you’ll have a heritage EDC tool that’s both good-looking and highly-capable. It’s a great option if you’re looking for a classic gent’s knife, and with its lock and steel it’ll actually perform better than most. Check out the details today and pick one up at the link below.
