About Gerber Blades Outrigger XL
The Outrigger XL blends elements of three of Gerber's most popular clip folders from the past decade into 2.5 ounces of multi-faceted, problem-solving design. The Assisted Opening 2.0 technology--popularized with the Gerber Instant--uses a ball-bearing pivot for buttery smooth, one-handed opening. For added safety, the thumb Plunge Lock on the handle offers easy release when closing, keeping your fingers from the blade's path. The open frame design strips weight out, while adding texture to the body for increased hold. Grippy without feeling sticky, the Outrigger is finished with the same molded, rubberized handle coating that debuted on the AR 3.0, keeping the knife right where it's supposed to be--your hand.
