Gerber Remix Serrated Knife

this is a fun knife, no doubt about it, but it has several issues. First, the clip is facing the wrong direction, in combination with how poor the knife stays folded, this makes or bad news, in the first week, I cut myself four times because the knife opened up on its own, had the clip been placed in the opposite direction, this would not have been an issue. Also, the clip is too thin, it bends very easily. This is a fun concept knife and may be better in the future, the manufacturer has a history of innovation and I doubt this will be last we hear of this knife, I would consider getting it again if these issues were fixed and the price stayed the same

I have had Two. The first purchased from West Marine was a high quality knife. The blade did not hold up long and needs frequent sharpening but a great product. The Second a replacement for the first one which was lost overboard, and purchased from [@] is a cheap, [*] shadow of the first one I owned. The overall appearance is that of a total fake. The plating is of a lesser grade and the lock mechanism is redesigned as a different lesser quality blade style. The flat required for the new style looks like it was ground by hand on the ground a huge disapointment

I bought it thinking it would be great for clipping to a carabener and nice and comfortable to grip, but after some use, I realized that the locking mechanism is all but impossible to use, and sticking my finger in the hole always makes me wonder if something might happen to break my finger. It now lives in my barn for cutting open hay bales so I don't have to mess around with opening and closing it.

When wearing on belt, knife hangs upside down. The blade slipped out of the closed position a little and managed to cut my shirt and almost my hand when it reached for it. The belt clip is not in a good position. It needs to be reversed so it hangs upright. Also it needs a locking closed position.

First thing to go on this knife for me was the lockback broke, it stayed in place and managed to still lock. I carried this knife in a pouch on a fanny pack for light days. It does do well on cord and other little things. The next to go was the thumb guide,which is a screw drive, that came off.

I like the feel, and the big circle which is great for placing a finger or a carabiner, but it is very difficult to open and close.
This is what made me put this in the back of my list of knives to grab.
Sorry I would say do not get it.

I have used this knife a lot at work to open large boxes and cut plastic containers. It has worked great for small jobs like that but I can't really see it working much past that. Nice condensed size to clip to something or keep in a pocket.
