The Gerber Remix Tactical - Put A Ring On It
The Gerber Remix Tactical is an eye-catching knife. Let’s not deny it, that ring in the top of the grip is certainly an eye-catcher.

Blade
The blade is a stubby, stout fella that is exactly 3 inches long. This keeps the knife legal in most states. The tanto tip makes it a good penetrator, as well as a very strong tip. It's not going to break very easily. The partial serration makes it easier to chew through materials and to cut through everything from seatbelts to 550 cord. The blade is made from 7CR17MoV steel, which isn't a robot rejected from Star Wars. It’s a stainless steel with Vanadium added. For a stainless steel, the edge retention is actually impressive. I’m not a metallurgist but I believe the Vanadium really helps with that edge retention. The Gerber is a strong and hard blade designed for deep penetration and tough cutting. The Remix Tactical is an excellent knife for EDC, for police officers who need an edge, or troops who want to keep a sure grip regardless of the situation. The Remix Tactical is an outstanding little folder.Sign up for the Crate Club to get gear that’s hand-picked by Special Ops veterans, delivered to your door every month.
