Gerber Gear Money Clip with Pocket Knife - Stainless Steel Folding Blade for Camping & Hiking & EDC - Fathers Day Dad Gifts, Gifts for Men

I had to wait to get this, but it was well worth it. I was so tired of bulky wallets. I go out a lot and don't want huge bulge in my pockets. This is very sleek. And one tip about money clips, what ruins them is the clip is cheap metal and no longer clams tight. This puppy is like a Vise Grip. I keep 4 credit cards and a few bills no problem. All Sleek and cool. Everyone is very impressed with this Money Clip. It is so light you barely feel it in your pocket. And when I take it out to pay the bill, I get those cool look. Your Wallet says so much about your Style! Rugged Tough and it has a knife! One bad, hard to get back in once you take it out, but then again it slides out ultra quick if you happen upon any Terrorist that needs dispatching. Take your time cleaning it off and putting it back! I highly recommend this very well done Money Clip. Gerber did us a Solid!

This is a substantial money clip, good heft for its size. All of the other reviews are correct- with more than a few bills and 4 or so cards, the knife is difficult to remove with out sliding the credit cards down an inch or so. I really don't mind in the slightest, as I didn't purchase this for frequent quick draw knife fights, in any event, this is a poor knife fighting knife, though easily sharpened and quite nice for small utility needs (such as opening other packaging from Gerber- seriously guys, I shouldn't need the knife in the package to open the package that the knife is in) I DID purchase this because I liked the look of the clip and wanted one that would last. In that respect, I think this one is a winner- it appears to be very durable, and I expect to use it for many years to come (just not when i'm flying).

When I carry cash I prefer to carry it in my front pocket, in a money clip. It never hurts to have an extra blade on you. Two is One, One is None and whatnot. I bought this primarily as a money clip. This is the second Gerber product I've purchased in as many years, after 7 years of staying away from the brand due to quality and safety issues I experienced with a few of their products. Their quality is above average to good. The construction of this item is solid. Very good fit and finish. Money Clip is good & tight. I can carry 20+ bills folded in half (I carry cards in a different manner). The G10 gives it a nice feel. The blade retention clip is pretty good. It does drag across the blade and will eventually wear the finish. Cosmetic, not a fuctionality issue. My biggest con with this thing is how little real estate you actually get on the grip. There are a few ways to grip this thing, but none of them are suitable for dynamic knife useage (such as self defense). To me, the blade is a last ditch useage item at best, and at worst a gimmick. Check out my pics to get an idea of how little purchase you actually get. If you have fat fingers, good luck. I have average fingers. Now, if you're a gear junkie, this has a cool factor. If you're looking for a handy pocket knife, buy an actual pocket knife. It's like Gerber said "we make knives, but we wanna make a money clip, so let's put a blade in it!!!" Granted, this one of a series of "lifestyle" pieces Gerber has introduced, and some are more functional and useful. Unfortunately, this one just isn't. Parting suggestion: Gerber, if you ever do a Version 2 of this, I have 4 or 5 designs I'd gladly sell you to make this as functional as it is cool.

I bought this because I like "gadget" or "novelty" type of knives. I never planned on using it as a money clip, that's why I gave it 5 stars. I wanted it more for the discreet way to carry a pocket knife. Although the entire thing is larger than my current pocket knife, it's relatively flat and I can barely notice it in my pocket. I'm a dad, so I have need for a pocket knife at least a couple times a week. It seems sturdy. Not particularly sharp, but that's fixed in about 30 seconds. Overall I love the design. Learning to hold the blade takes a little playing with, but do-able. As a money clip I would say that an ID, 1 or 2 credit cards and 4-5 bills. This comes no where near being big enough for me. If you are a true minimalist you can absolutely use this as a money clip. If you're part of the other 99% of society, you might just want to buy this as a cool, discrete pocket knife. I'm thinking of buying another for my wife to keep in her purse.

Great little buddy !

To start, I love the form factor, always having a small knife available, and the fidget factor of the ring on the end. However, when I received it, the package had been cut open in a couple spots. On removal, everything seemed to be in place, so maybe just open box? On the down side, the blade was super dull out of the package, which is unusual compared to the 4 or 5 knives I’ve purchased this last year. I ran it through the WorkSharp, but wasn’t able to test right away. When I later tried to slice paper, no luck! Back to the sharpener!! We’ll see how it holds an edge once I get it in shape. Finally, regarding the credit card capacity, when I tried about 4 cards and 3 bills, I couldn’t get the knife to release. Had to pare down to 1 card, my ID and a thin insurance card with the cash in the bottom. Works for now, but I’ll have to switch out when I travel to carry everything else.

Great quality and perfect size if you don’t want to carry a pocket knife looks like a money clip.

Most of my adult life I have carried some kind of pocket knife. A pocket knife and a flashlight are two things that can make your everyday life so much easier and having one of each makes me better prepared at all times. When I need to open a package or cut a string or plastic tie, I want to be able to grab a sharp blade, use it, and put it away securely. Often I will already have my hands full at the time, so one-handed operation is important. I bought this money clip knife intending to use it for it's intended purpose, but soon discovered a variation that works much better for me. Instead of using it as a money clip, I use the clip to attach the kinife to my pants pocket. With the clip on the outside, the knife part is secure inside my pocket. I can access the knife by slipping my thumb inside the pocket, release the blade and remove it in one easy motion. The clip and the rest of the case stay in place. Replacing the blade after use is relatively easy also, though a little bit of practice makes that process go smoother. For putting the knife away, the blade needs to be lined up just right with the case. One important point needs to be stressed here: THIS IS NOT A SELF-DEFENCE KNIFE. I read some comments and questions here from people fantisizing about using this blade against attackers or to defend themselves. DON'T even think about it! It's not that kind of knife and it would never work for that. This knife will stay handy and secure in my pocket. When I need it, it is easy to withdraw and them put safely away. The blade was very sharp right out of the box but it stays put until I need it.

堅牢なつくりからくる安心感がありさすがGERBER製。 刃が折り畳みではないことがよい。 マネークリップとしての実用性もしっかりあり使いやすい。 疑問点：こういう仕様なのかもしれませんが、刃を収納した時の固定感が甘いような気がする。通常使用している分には落ちることはないし取り出しやすいので使用には問題ない。

Der Clip ist größer als gedacht. Drückt man auf das Plättchen im Ring, löst sich die Sperre und die Klinge kann rausgezogen werden. Die Klinge im Clip ist sehr scharf und 4,4 cm lang (geschliffener Teil). Die Verarbeitung ist sehr wertig und der Clip ist sehr stark. Das Teil ist aber etwas sperrig und für die enge Jeans eher hinderlich. Ansonsten gut, schön minimalistisch.

Conforme à la description mais... pas si pratique à l'usage, le clips de sécurité n'est pas si sympa que ce que l'on pourrait attendre. de plus il use la peinture de la lame dès la première utilisation ! Il faut abandonner tout de suite l'envie de conserver votre petit gerber en parfait état. prise en main du couteau pas facile mais en même temps, c'est pas ce que l'on demande a un mignon petit gadget comme ça. dernier point négatif pour moi, le couteau est un couteau pour gaucher : lorsque vous le sortez de l'étui avec la main droite, le tranchant de la lame est vers le haut, vers votre pouce. Ça aurait été bien de pouvoir inverser facilement le petit anneau vert qui impose de sens du rangement dans l'étui. Sinon, format sympa. Clip bien serré. Discret. Personne ne devinera qui c'est un couteau !

good quality, sturdy

Not a real practical item blade doesn't fit real good in hand
