Gerber Armor Tanto Knife Reviews and Gerber Knives
Overview
Take the Armor in hand and you’ll discover just how ergonomic a tactical knife can be. We took considerable care in shaping the Micarta handle to fit the human hand, right down to the thumb ridges. Dual thumbstuds and a finger flipper facilitate easy one-hand opening. The all-business tanto blade is engineered from high-carbon stainless steel coated black for a low visibility signature. The handle fits comfortably in your hand and is easy to open and close. To open the knife there is a small stub that can be used to open the knife with your thumb. The small stub doubles as a finger guard as it flips over to the other side of the knife and is used to protect you while it is open. The blade is made is extremely strong and will remain sharp after many many uses. The black knife blades provides a surface that is non-reflective and also comes with a serrated edge.
The knife can be used for a variety of different tasks while hunting, camping, or even special operations. The front edge has a flat grind for easy care and sharpening, while the bottom edge is hollow ground for precision cutting tasks. Gerber designed the ergonomic handle to fit your grip like a glove right down to the thumb ridges. A one-handed finger-flipper opener makes the Armor Tanto easy to deploy when your hands are full. This is a unique knife in a long line of Gerber Knives. It can be used for leisure, but it is also tough enough to handle special operations that go above and beyond the normal routines of life. One of the most important questions you can ask yourself about a knife is “Am I satisfied? Does the knife get the job done?”. Well in the case of the Gerber Armor Tanto your answer will most definately be “Yes”. Made with the same attention to detail as all Gerber Knives the Armor Tanto is one special piece of equipement that you are going to want when fending for yourself.
It’s a knife. It’s a Gerber. It’s a Gerber Knife.
