Durable, fast to deploy, and rugged. This knife is a one-hand opening workhorse with a S30V tanto blade that can cut through anything; the black oxide coating and G-10 handle minimize slip to keep you safe in critical conditions.DETAILS:
An automatic knife needs to do many things well and a few things exceptionally - deploy consistently fast, be constructed to withstand daily abuse, and feel intuitively comfortable in hand. When Gerber set out to design the Propel, the process was peppered with critical feedback from military and law enforcement personnel - this wasn't meant to be just another automatic knife.The Propel was tasked with answering the needs of some of the most demanding, abusive, and unpredictable environments the world has to offer - it had to answer the questions that weren't yet asked. Because lives depended on it working - every time. One might think that sounds like a tall order, and one would be right. Yet, it is fulfilled with durable materials, smart design, and an unrelenting focus on the end user. In the end, it provides the unshakable confidence that can only come from carrying a knife you truly believe in.
