It's been a few months since I saw the movie, but I'm thinking it was a Gerber 600 tool. (By the way, great flick for those of you who haven't seen it yet!)

Pretty certain it was a Gerber too.  My wife was upset with me when I pointed it out in the theatre!

My wife rolled her eyes during the movie when I started getting excited about a multitool "sighting."


Now she doesn't want to sit next to me at the theatre any more.  :-\

I'm supposed to see this movie this weekend if the mailman brings it on time.  I'll remember to slo-mo it frame by frame and point out the reasons why I think it is also a Gerber 600.  You know, to redeem myself.   :)

It's kinda like when I saw The Day After Tomrrow with some flashlight aficionados and laughing about the people in it just conveniently finding Surefire M6's handy when they needed them.

OK, so I used slo-mo frame advance on this DVD ::) so I could check out the multitool.  It sure looks like a Gerber, but please tell me how you can tell it's a 600 model?

Hmmm. Hold that thought for a day or two. I need to rent the movie again and refresh my memory.  :P

We figured it was a 600 because it's a safe bet since 90% of all Gerbers out there are some variation or another on the MP600! :P

Why do wives have such a lack of fore-sight???  I get that from the wife all the time
