A Gerber Tread.

Another of the Suspension variants.

The Tread breaks from the typical Suspension-clone format in that it has no blades in the one handle, only an LED light.


Not sure if this is really a worthwhile trade-off? :-\

It looks interesting enough.  If you can snag it for $20 and you like the look of it then I say go for it.

I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

I'm just watching it atm...  ;)
There's still 5 days left of the auction, so plenty of time to make the move...  :)

Of the "new" Gerbers, I think you would find a Diesel or a Flik more interesting. :)

Multitools seldom turn up on the danish auction sites, So It's great to get some feedback on the "unknown" Models... :tu:

I think it is the best in the suspension line. that is only because I like flashlights on my tools.

The flashlight is kinda turnoff for me, reminds me too much of some low budget tools... :P :)
