Build your collection with Gerber
By Desiree Weeks
Ready to add a new piece of quality gear to your collection? Check out all the best products from Gerber. Gerber creates products that are uniquely designed to meet the needs of the user and can truly stand the test of time.
Hailing from Portland, Oregon, Gerber was founded in 1939 and has continued to grow with every passing year. They’ve become a trusted name in the business while continuing to look toward the future of innovation.
Their products span from everyday carry to life saving pieces and everywhere in between. Here are just a few of the great Gerber products you can find on BudK!
Gerber Black Propel Automatic Pocket Knife
Never leave the house unprepared when you take the Gerber Black Propel Automatic Pocket Knife with you. This knife’s 3 1/2" 420 HC steel tanto blade can be released with just one hand, making it easy to access in a pinch.
The blade has a black oxide coating to prevent corrosion and minimize visibility. With a partially serrated blade, this is a knife that can cut through anything. The G-10 handle minimizes slipping, giving added grip and providing a feel that is comfortable for the hand. While it’s up to large tasks, it can breeze through everyday needs and the three-position pocket clip makes it easy to carry.
Gerber DoubleDown Folding Machete
You may not have ever considered how useful a folding machete would be, but the great minds at Gerber did. The Gerber DoubleDown Folding Machete is one product you don’t want to miss out on. It is designed for chopping, splitting, and core knife work, checking all the boxes of a great tool. It has a 6 3/4" 420 HC recurve blade with baton jimping on the spine for added power.
The anodized aluminum butterfly opening handle is designed to be versatile with two grip positions. For chopping, the extended length of the blade optimizes force while choking up on the handle given more control for core knife work. The machete’s patent-pending four-lock system engages in three positions to ensure safe operation under different levels of stress.
How could you not want a weapon that combines the features of a knife, machete, and hatchet that can fold down to half its size? Attach the multi-mount sheath to a belt or MOLLE and get ready for an adventure.

Gerber Black Truss Multi-Tool
Want to carry 17 tools in your pocket but can’t quite figure out the logistics? Then the Gerber Black Truss Multi-Tool is for you. It includes standard pliers, wire cutter, a 2 1/4" fine edge blade, a 2 1/4" serrated blade, scissors, saw, real cross driver, small flathead, medium flathead, large flathead, can opener, bottle opener, awl, file, ruler, wire stripper, and spring-loaded needle nose pliers. With such an impressive list of items, it’s hard to believe that this multi-tool measures just 4 3/10” closed.
The tool’s handle is a slim design, made of one single piece of steel, and features a lanyard hole and tool lock. Always have it handy with the low-profile nylon sheath that can be attached vertically or horizontally to a belt.
Gerber LMF II Infantry Knife
Field tested with troops and engineered by former military man Jeff Freeman, the Gerber LMF II Infantry Knife is something you’ll certainly want in your collection.
This 10” tactical knife has a 4 7/8” blade made of 420 HC stainless steel. Adaptable to any scenario, this survival knife is just as capable in your backyard as it is on the battlefield. The over-molded handle limits blistering, making it great for long term use. There is a complete separation between the tang and butt cap, so the knife absorbs shocks from hammering and prevents shocks of electricity. Grooves and lashing holes also allow the knife to convert to a spear.
This knife also comes with an impressive sheath. The sheath allows for movement, limiting noise, and can be attached to a belt or MOLLE vest. The patented integrated sharpener means you’ll never be caught with anything less than a perfectly sharp blade.
