Gerber Gear Paraframe EDC Folding Pocket Knife with Safety Lock for Everyday Carry, Gifts for Men

I think this is the perfect knife, holds an edge and great with he serrated back edge, value for the money is great, slim design and a great looking knife makes this a must carry for everyday. This is my fourth only since I keep leaving it somewhere! Love the grey color as well!

Razor sharp from the factory, this knife needed a bit of break-in for one handed opening. When closing, the liner lock makes a satisfying click when fully closed. This knife is a quality tool for every day use.

I have utilized this knife as a pocketknife for several years. I like the size, the light weight, and the ruggedness. The only reason I had to buy this was as a replacement for one lost to an ER admittance recently. Love the product!

Nice knife, but only a nice knife. The action is stiff, even with a drop of oil. The liner lock is solid but it does take a bit of a shove to free. The blade is sharp, but not sure what metal it is made from. 440C? 440B? or something else, it does not say. It has a nice balance, and it looks cool. sort of like the frame of Ducati, but not th engine.

Great knife, I've had a Gerber pocket knife before and bought this one to replace the one I cant find. They are always great quality, super sharp and hold up great over time. My last one i had for close to 20 years, before I misplaced it.

The small size means it fits nicely in any pocket. smooth case means it goes i and put smoothly. Good sharp blade seems to hold the edge better than the no names i returned. They were on sale so i bought ten for random gifting...A SMASH HIT!

I love this knife. It can be taken out super easily and stays as sharp as the day you got it for a long time. Not bulky at all and is perfectly hidden even in female pants pockets. It’s helped me in some dangerous situations. Truck stops, doing uber eats, etc. super easy to whip out and have on the ready.

It is just okay.Pros:It is relatively inexpensive at $23 (the price as of the date of this review).It is light.It looks cool.The frame lock is secure.Cons:Don't trust any knife if the product information does not contain the specific type of steel it is made with.The blade is not especially sharp.The skeletal handle is a poor choice in combination with the frame lock;it contributes to the wobble.I sharpened the knife, but it did not stay sharp for very long cutting boxes.There is a fair bit of wobble. I would not use this for heavy duty tasks.The opening action can be a bit stiff; there are some occasions where I struggle to open it with one hand.Overall, my feeling is that I wish that I had spent just slightly more money to get a better quality knife. If you want affordable, every day carry, I recommend getting a knife whose blade is made from D2, Nitro-V, or Sandvik 14c28n; those are all good "budget" steels that will outperform this for only slightly more money. If you want easy opening, look for a model that has a bearing; this increases the cost a bit also.For example, for $35-ish you can get a Civivi Mini Praxis. It has the same blade length, a strong liner lock, a ceramic bearing, a good quality synthetic grip (G10), and a much better blade. It is not as flashy as the Paraframe, but it flips so much better; that will attract attention, if that is what you want. On the other hand, if you want practical, you can get a more covert color scheme.
