Gerber Asada Stonewashed Cleaver Onyx Aluminum Frame Lock Flipper 30-001807

Riding the wave of the popular Gerber FlatIron, the Asada is another cleaver style frame lock folder enhanced with a B.O.S.S bearing pivot and modern index flipper deployment. A robust stainless steel frame lock construction is paired with a stylish, anodized aluminum scale and slicing flat ground blade in a slim, compact profile for comfortable everyday carry. The Asada is another standout design with proven build quality backed by the Gerber lifetime guarantee. This version comes with an Onyx black aluminum scale and gray PVD coated frame with Pinch Plate.

Brand new, direct from Gerber Knives.

Blade: Delivered in a rugged, wear-hiding stonewashed finish, the stainless steel cleaver style blade has a full flat grind providing excellent slicing performance balanced with durability with a forward tip for piecing. The deep index finger choil delivers enhanced control for fine cutting tasks as well as a secure grip for spine leverage during heavier work. A stainless bearing pivot allows for fast, smooth, one-hand deployment via the index flipper with no grip adjustment thanks to the Gerber Pinch Plate.

Handle: Made from anodized aluminum supported by a stainless steel liner, the front scale is sleek and handsome for daily carry allowing for smooth draw from the pocket. Dual barrel spacers create an easy to maintain, open back construction while reducing the overall weight. For smooth operation and reliable lockup the back is a robust, all stainless steel frame lock with a gray PVD coating matching the liner. Pulling duty as an over travel prevention and lock stabilizer, the Pinch Plate also prevents unintended pressure on the lock bar for worry free deployment.

Carries via a right hand, tip-up only stainless steel pocket clip.

7Cr17MoV Stainless Steel: Chinese equivalent of the AISI 440A stainless steel, a high corrosion resistant stainless steel used in budget and dive knives.
