seems like an upgrade on the Prodigy

I sold my Prodigy because I wasn't a fan of the combo edge, but this little rascal comes in plain edge  >:D

It's on my list for this year  :D

That does look a nice knife. I'll be interested to see what the UK price comes out at

I like blade shape and length, and handle looks comfortable. Dont know how it is with long use, since it has rather rough pattern.

Question is, how much will they cost, and when do they become awailable?

Gerber sort of blows it when it comes to SHOT show in my opinion. They release their product catalog a few weeks before SHOT, so everybody already knows what the new stuff is going to be from them. And in Gerber's case this year, in the multitool department they aren't releasing anything completely new. Just variations on old tools. We were all talking about the Dime Travel, Pink Dime, Blue Crucial, MP1 MRO and AR, and MP600 Bladeless a month ago. In the case of the MP1 variants and the MP600 Bladeless, we have known about them for several months, at least.

If they want the same sort of buzz that Leatherman creates for themselves at SHOT, they need to hold off on debuting the product catalog until SHOT show, when they are debuting all the new toys, and then not post the catalog online until the week after SHOT. Also, SHOT show is the biggest show of it's kind, so all tool debuts should be done at SHOT. Releasing the MP600 Bladeless randomly in the middle of the year is a missed opportunity for generating buzz in the industry and amongst consumers/fans.
