I picked up a fastball last year....and I gotta say. After breaking it in for almost a year, its MUCH better! The super stiff detent becomes smoother and smoother over use. I'm actually proud of Gerber for going back to their innovative roots, that were made in the good ol' USA!

I’ve been carrying a Gerber Armbar for several months and I have used it almost everyday. It’s small non-threatening has a locking blade plus a full sized bit driver once they add a lock to the driver it’ll be the perfect pocket multi tool

Thank you for mentioning the bit driver not locking on the armbar. I have one and that makes it almost unusable for me. I want that on a version two so much that I would absolutely buy a second one if they did. Green would also be cool.

Gerber will always hold a special place for me. It was the first brand of knife that I got my first real knife cut on. It was a Gerber Gator folder and I was cutting rope or zip ties and I slipped or something but I got a deep cut on my right middle finger. They just came out with the Sedulo which looks good. Like the Gerber version of a bugout

Multicam 06 Auto, Gerber Strongarm, Gerber Principle, and my never leaves my side, Gerber Prybrid Utility. I think i got tbe jump on the Prybrid because i got it awhile ago and am just now seeing all the people taking notice. I love it! Really a Utility blade and prybar solves most of your problems besides having to cut metal wire or anything like that, and hammer something in. If they can somehow integrate a pocket clip on the back that doesn't get in the way of prying, it will be Gerbers #1 seller ever. Also, i think its products like these that show Gerber is listening to the scrutiny.

I have a Gerber Ghoststike, Keynote, and a Haul, and I love them all. I find myself carrying my Haul often because I purchased it at Lowes for sub $30 bucks, and for that price I don't care if it gets beat up. As far as the Keynote, I've given up trying to find a practical application (with the exception of opening boxes) for that knife. However, it really is a cool looking trinket. My Ghoststike is strapped to my BOB because I wanted a light fixed blade knife that is easily accessible.

on the armbar if it had a locking screw driver (I would hate if it folded when pressing hard) they need to put a stronger spring for the scissors and the blade needs to have better steal (1095hc would be awesome. something simple would be a key ring or something like that. then I think they would fly off the shelf

I always feel that Gerber's "design team" (for their knives not the multi-tools), just buy stuff off AliExpress and put their brand on it. There's no excuse for 7cr steel. I'm no steel snob by any means, but 7cr doesn't stand up to the most basic of use except cutting paper. The stuff rolls if you look at it hard!
