Durable Stainless Steel Construction for Long Life
Made from durable stainless steel, the Gerber E.A.B. Pocket Knife will stand up to daily use as a box cutter, pocket knife, or as the back-up knife you keep in your backpack, purse, or car.
Replaceable Blade Keeps Knife Sharp
With its handy exchange-a-blade feature, the Gerber E.A.B. Pocket Knife will always be sharp. Because it uses contractor grade or standard size utility blades, you can cheaply and conveniently change blades as often as you need. You won’t have to worry about ruining the blade when you cut through tough surfaces–just replace it and keep working.
When one side of the blade gets dull, you can still use the other side by turning the blade over. When both sides are dull, simply unscrew the stabilizing screw and replace the blade.
Lightweight Knife Stores Comfortably in Pocket
At only 2.2 ounces and 2.4 inches in length when closed, the Gerber E.A.B. Pocket Knife stores easily and comfortably in your pants or shirt front pocket, keeping the knife nearby for frequent tasks. A convenient pocket clip doubles as a money clip and allows the knife to rest on the edge of the pocket, increasing accessibility.
Safety Features for Worry-Free Use
Liner lock construction locks the blade solidly in the open position, so you can apply pressure without worrying about the knife closing on its own. A finger guard over the blade keeps your fingers safe, and the shape and heft of the knife keep it from wobbling or slipping.
The Gerber E.A,B, also makes a great monogrammed gift, with its flat handle and slim profile.
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.

This knife is dangerous, and can cause severe injury to the user. The handle is small and your index finger can slide onto the blade. The knife has even been recalled by Gerber. Save yourself some medical bills and buy something else. See for yourself:

I carry this knife with me everywhere I go. I originally purchased it as a knife to carry at work, but it’s always in my pocket and I use it multiple times a day. Even when the blade gets dull it still works great as a box knife. I’ve thrown just about everything at it and it’s performed nicely. One of the lowest scoring reviews here states that the blades are hard to replace and the screw is easy to lose. As long as you have an ample flat surface you can replace the blade without fear of losing the screw. As for needing a special tool–I disagree. I’ve used my car keys before to replace the blade. The things I like most about this knife? The blades can always be replaced or resharpened without fear of screwing up the blade. You always have a backup blade because of the two-sided design of the blades. It’s small enough to fit in any pocket. It will never rust (the body). I never thought I would carry a razor knife as my main, but it’s true, I really enjoy this knife and wouldn’t trade it for anything else. Unsafe? Any knife is unsafe in the wrong hands. Razor blade knives are very sharp and require extra care when in use. I’ve never accidentally cut myself with the knife. The only negative is you can’t use it as a makeshift screwdriver because the blades are too flimsy, but that’s a minor quibble. This knife is cheap, convenient and will last a lifetime. I highly recommend it.

I change the blade very seldom, I just sharpen the blade with a diamond sharpener. It saves blades and I can get it a lot sharper than a new blade. I have done this for years with utility blades.

I carry this knife fairly frequently in my pocket since it’s small and compact. Having an interchangeable blade makes this little thing super flexible and I can cut aggressively while opening a box without worrying about nicking the blade on a staple. The clip makes it easy to attach to my pocket, and works great as a money clip. My only issue with the handy little knife is that when closed, the blade hits up against metal, dulling the blade. I consider this a major design flaw.

I have to carry a utility knife for work at all times, for breaking down boxes and opening packages. This gerber is absolutely the lightest and smallest possible means of having this on me at all times. I completely forget it’s there until I need it which is exactly how a pocket knife should be. Other folding utility knives are heavier and some part on them is inevitably sharp or rough and has ruined my pockets. No utility knife is safe by the nature of being razor sharp, but the finger guard on the blade is more than sufficient. Having the extra amount of blade showing actually helps me break down boxes easier.
