Robust Compact EDC Knives

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Gerber Kettlebell Fits Any Pocket but Functions Like a Larger Knife

— August 23, 2018 — Art & Design
Designed first and foremost as an EDC blade, the Gerber Kettlebell features the stylings of a compact knife but carries the cutting ability of a full-sized knife. Sporting a 2.5-inch blade, this knife definitely falls into the EDC-focused category but also manages to function like a blade twice its size. The versatile clip point blade allows users to perform multiple cutting tasks. Dual thumb studs secure into the beefy frame lock and allow the user to easily open the blade when in the closed position. The studs also provide deep finger choils on the Gerber Kettlebell allowing from more precise work.

The Gerber Kettlebell also features textured aluminum scaled, providing a rugged and modern look. A pocket clip allows for tip-up pocket carry and a lanyard attachment hole is featured in the back of the knife handle.
