With its straight spine and seamless design, the Gerber 22-41493 EVO Jr. Knife with Serrated Edge offers extreme usability in an eye-pleasing design. Besides its aesthetic qualities, the EVO Jr. boasts a high-quality carbon stainless steel blade as well as a thumb stud and finger clip for easy one-handed opening. Innovation In A Compact Design The EVO Jr.'s profile reveals a seamless design that begins at the back of the blade and continues along the upper edge of the handle. This gives the knife the look, feel, and power of a dagger and makes it ideal for range of around-the-house and outdoor uses. Anodized Aluminum Handle for Lighter Weight To help give the knife a more powerful and aggressive feel--key if you're using it for rugged activities like cutting through brush or weeds--the anodized aluminum handle features seven slanting oval openings. Beyond their organic look, these openings also serve to further reduce the knife's overall weight, making it easier to handle and hold. Durable High Carbon Stainless Steel Construction Constructed of high carbon stainless steel coated with titanium nitride for increased corrosion resistance, the EVO Jr.'s blades can handle anything that comes their way, no matter what the conditions. A thumb stud and finger clip ensure easy one-handed operation--great for when you're holding a box ready for cutting in one hand, and the knife in the other. For an extra measure of safety, there's an internal finger guard. Compact for Portability The EVO Jr. has an overall length of 6.35 inches with a blade length of 2.75 inches and weighs just 1.8 ounces, so it's easy to toss it in a bag, backpack, or pocket. About Gerber: A History of Innovation Savvy. Moxie. Craftsmanship. Attention to detail. These are just a few of the company traits that have contributed to Gerber's emergence as a world leader in outdoor gear. Joseph Gerber started Portland, Oregon's Gerber Advertising back in 1910, and one Christmas, he hired a local knife-maker to craft 25 sets of kitchen cutlery as client gifts. The knives were so popular Mr. Gerber ultimately left his agency to launch Gerber Legendary Blades in 1939. It makes sense, really. An idea man gets the idea of a lifetime and turns it into a major outdoor brand--one that commands respect among knife lovers and knife makers alike. And now that same high regard is spreading in new directions, in the form of many outstanding products such as tools, personal L.E.D. lighting, and more. What's in the Box Gerber 22-41493 EVO Jr. Knife with Serrated Edge in clamshell packaging. Product Description One of the lightest knives that Gerber makes, the EVO has multiple openings in the anodized aluminum handle.

From the Manufacturer Introducing a clip folder for knife people who prefer the look of a straight spine; the profile reveals a "seamless" design that begins at the back of the blade and continues along the length of the upper edge of the handle. Another aesthetic design touch is the series of seven slanting oval openings in the anodized aluminum handle. The blades are constructed of high carbon stainless steel that is coated with titanium nitride for added corrosion resistance. There's a thumb stud and finger clip for easy one-handed opening. And, there's an integral finger guard for an extra measure of safety. Bottom line? You'd do well to own such a highly evolved knife.
