never handled a gerber, just wondering what peoples thoughts are on this model as it seems like a good price for a user/ abuser?

I'm not a fan of the saw, but it is a great model :)

You can't go wrong with any MP series :)
Give in, buy several Farmer's!!!!!!

The nice thing is you can always replace the saw with something you do like.

You will love the sliding plier head feature. Definitely Gerber's high water mark feature.

I love them and the regular MP 600 model.  They are the only Gerbers I own for myself. :tu:

A bit late I know, but this is a great tool at a great price including shipping.

I'd definitely go for it.
I used to come here a lot.

Is there one with needle nose plier, carbide cutter, and saw adapter? There are quite a few 600 and very confusing, but I haven't found any like that.

What's the difference between Whoey's and the Pro Scout with Carbide Cutters?  :think:

Pro scout is the one grant posted, it has scissors and a more traditional looking blade.
