Gerber 's American developers have devised this fantastic Ultimate , a medium-sized knife with the ability to respond incredibly in all types of conditions and environments. It gets the job done by making a wide variety of clean cuts, including tearing fibers.
The Ultimate knife has been manufactured with a type of stainless steel , which has a hardness of 55 HRC , making it ideal for resisting all types of cuts and impacts . In addition, it has a small carbon content (0.60%), which provides extra hardness and a large proportion of chromium for greater resistance to corrosion.
In addition, 7Cr has a high chromium content capable of withstanding high temperatures, even reaching abrasion . This type of steel is used especially for field knives or machetes , so you can use it in any hostile environment such as forest, mountain, jungle.
The composition of 7Cr is 0.60-0.75% carbon, less than 1% manganese, 16-17% chromium, not more than 0.6% nickel, and between 0.4 and 0.5% molybdenum.
Another feature of the Gerber Ultimate knife is its spectacular ergonomic Zytel thermoplastic polymer handle, which makes this knife unique . This elastomer It is made in a process that combines layers of material under pressure. This durable material encases the blade in a smooth, elegant fashion.
The grip has an ergonomic structure to reduce fatigue during long periods of effort. In addition, it has a chopped grip to increase the grip of the weapon and thus reduce the possibility of falling. It incorporates a hole in the upper part of the knife for a rope or paracord .
The difference between the cutlery pieces that make up the Ultimate Series lies in the finish of the blade, since they have extremely high performance qualities. In the first place, the blade is semi-integral in nature , so both pieces will be prevented from any separation between the blade and the handle.
The finish of this knife is in satin color , and it presents a Clip Point profile that is characterized by spectacular strength and robustness at the end of the knife, which makes it possible to make deep incisions. In addition, it includes a large mixed edge that will increase the work space and also allow deep cuts .
This knife has a high quality nylon sheath to be able to carry the knife in any situation. Plus, it comes personalized with the Gerber logo screen print. Includes a belt adapter to make it more comfortable to carry.
