Why We Love It: Small but mighty expertly crafted knife that opens with the flick of your thumb.

Being prepared for anything requires equal parts mental readiness and having the right tools at your disposal. The Swagger Assisted Opening Knife is an everyday tactical blade perfect to keep you prepared for any occasion, any time. The Swagger knife offers ease of use, stout construction, and comfortable carry with a 3.25-inch blade and assisted opening convenience.

A knife is only as good as it is easy to open and Gerber’s proven Assisted Opening 2.0 technology delivers silky-smooth one-handed deployment, paired with a reliable plunge lock to keep the blade fixed where it belongs.

Simply engage the thumb stud, and watch the mechanism work its magic in deploying the blade. Whether it be cutting rope or responding to a critical situation, the Gerber Swagger Knife with Assisted Opening is ready to help and makes a badass birthday gift for guys who appreciate a well-crafted knife.

Designed with problem solving in mind, the Swagger’s partial serrated blade and easy-to-maintain edge add immense utility. From carving to slicing to sawing, the drop point blade can do it all. Its black titanium nitride coating is excellent for corrosion resistance and the G-10 composite handle sets a high bar for durability and all-conditions grip.
