Designed with a slim profile for comfortable every day carry the Gerber FlatIron is a cleaver style frame lock folder that cuts like a razor. The hollow ground blade provides a thin, slicing edge with more a more robust spine for durability. A high-traction scale supported by a stainless steel liner forms the show side with a sturdy, stainless frame lock playing opposite for secure operation. The FlatIron is a standout design with proven build quality backed by the Gerber lifetime guarantee. This version comes with an Urban Blue Micarta scale, polished D2 tool steel blade and gray PVD coated frame with Pinch Plate.

Blade: Delivered in a stunning polished finish, the D2 tool steel cleaver style blade has a razor-like hollow grind providing amazing slicing performance. A forward tip pairs with the deep finger choil offering control for fine cutting tasks as well as piercing. A generous oval hole in the blade allows for easy, one-hand operation with no grip adjustment thanks to the Gerber Pinch Plate.

Handle: Made from Urban Blue Micarta, the front scale offers enhanced traction and a handsome look for urban carry. Three barrel spacers create an easy to maintain, open back construction while reducing the overall weight. For smooth operation and reliable lockup the back is a robust, all stainless steel frame lock with a gray PVD coating matching the liner. Pulling duty as an over travel prevention and lock stabilizer, the Pinch Plate also prevents unintended pressure on the lock bar for worry free deployment.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up only stainless steel pocket clip.

D2 Tool Steel: D2 is a cold work tool steel that has been used as a die cutting steel since WW II. With a high chromium content for a tool steel (10-13%) D2 offers greater corrosion resistance than most high carbon steels. With a good combination of toughness, corrosion resistance and wear resistance D2 is a well-balanced, all around knife steel.
