Gerber Legendary Blades, known for being the leading design manufacturer in multi-tools, takes this category to the next dimension with the introduction of the Recoil Auto-Plier. Engineers incorporated strong dual springs into the inner handle thus allowing the needle nose jaw to spring out at the touch of a button, for the ultimate in one hand opening use. Spring-loaded handles also open the tool making it easier to tackle the toughest of jobs. A built-in safety prevents accidental opening. The additional component tools are fitted into the outboard sides of the handle. They include: Fiskars® Scissors so tough they can cut through seatbelts, drop point knife blade, wire stripper, twine cutter, cross-head and flathead screwdrivers and can opener. All components lock in place with our patented SAF-T PLUS locking system, the safest, strongest, most durable lock available. The all stainless steel construction provides the strength and durability for long-term use. Includes ballistic nylon sheath.

About Gerber
In 1939 Joseph Gerber hired a local knife maker to build 25 sets of kitchen cutlery to be given as Christmas gifts. The knives were so popular that Joseph Gerber left his advertising agency to start Gerber Legendary Blades®. The unique style and high quality manufacturing of Gerber cutlery soon developed wide spread acclaim. In fact, Gerber Legendary Blades are the only cutlery on display in New Yorks famous Museum of Modern Art.
From very early on, Gerber collaborated with top knife designers, setting a standard of quality for everyone else to follow. Renowned designers such as Al Mar, Bob Loveless, Paul Poehlmann, "Blackie" Collins, William Harsey Jr. and Ernest Emerson have all designed knives for Gerber. In 2002 this tradition continued as Gerber released the Silver Trident?, designed by Chief James "Patches" Watson (U.S.N. Ret.) and Bill Harsey Jr.
Today, Gerber continues to design and manufacture unique, high quality outdoor recreation products. In 2003 we are proud to introduce the next generation of multi-tools: the Recoil Auto-Plier. By constantly utilizing new technology and innovative design to develop new products, Gerber continues to be an industry leader.
