Gerber E-Z Out Knife
by Lianeh on Jun.15, 2009, under Patrol Store
Part of the legendary Gerber range, the E-Z Out Rescue knife is E-Z to access, E-Z to open and E-Z to use.
These speciality knives are designed for such scenarios where you need to cut through seatbelts etc without the risk of stabbing adjacent surfaces, for example the person you are rescuing, as the blade tip is blunt.
The Gerber E-Z Out Knife comes with a removable stainless steel clip so it can be kept safely and securely in pockets until it is needed.
The blade is made from high carbon stainless steel and has a serrated edge, which cuts through items such as belts with ease. This means the blade won’t corrode or discolour.
The yellow handle is made from fibreglass reinforced thermoplastic material and has soft grip rubber inserts known as Kraton, which is engineered in for extra gripping performance. The rubber inserts are moulded into the handle, not glued, meaning this prevents them from ever coming out on their own or with normal wear and tear.
This makes it a knife handle that is much more durable than a typical brass and wood handle but is many times lighter.
Qualifying as a Tactical Folder, the Gerber E-Z Out Knife can be opened in one motion with one hand, meaning it is there when you need it most. The oval blade slot provides E-Z opening with the left or right hand.
The Gerber E-Z Out Knife has also been voted as The Personal Rescue Knife of choice by many of the UK’s leading instructors and tried and tested by the RYA.
