Lightweight Everyday Carry

This lightweight everyday carry knife has an open frame that is the ultimate in minimalist design. Easy to clean, carry, and open, the Paraframe is an effortless addition to your pocket or belt clip. Available in multiple blade variations, this knife handles it all.

Balanced Feel

The first thing you’ll notice when you handle this knife is its balanced feel. Like an evenly weighted skipping stone, the skeletonized metal handle complements the weight of the blade to provide a positive, confident feel for a smaller knife. Equally as important, it’s a pleasure to carry. Clip it to your pocket or belt, and it literally disappears until you know you need it.

It's In The Details

Gerber’s decades-long history crafting tools shines in the small details that have earned the Paraframe design its popularity: twin knurled thumb studs for easy blade engagement, a beefy frame lock for secure blade use, and the blade itself, a capable partially serrated tanto style. There’s even a metal pocket clip to keep it handy at a moment’s notice.

Details

  • Steel Type: 7Cr17MoV
  • Handle Material: 3Cr13
  • Lock Type: Frame Lock
  • Thumb studs facilitate quick, easy blade engagement
  • Pocket clip offers security and keeps your knife within easy reach at all times
  • Black titanium nitride-coated blade reduces unwanted reflection and defends against corrosion

No one-handed opening because no thumb stud
4 Stars
No one-handed opening because no thumb stud
It has no thumb stud for opening single handedly, and there is no way to get a grip with your thumb on the exposed back of the blade to force it open. There is a "fingernail indention" to aid in opening, but it is not located in the cutout where your thumb would rest.Other than that? Very inexpensive, sharp, extremely lightweight, nice size.It needs a thumb stud like the larger knives on this page.
