Gerber Clutch 4$ @ Target!
on: September 19, 2010, 08:19:13 PM
I happened to be at target today, and saw gerber clutches on clearance for 4$!!!!
I couldn't resist snagging one, and I don't see the problem people have with gerber QC, other than the tweezers being the dumbest design in the MT world.

Fixed. ;)  $4 for a clutch is an awesome deal.  Canadian Tire usually has the Clutch on sale for $10 CAD but never the Shortcut. :(  I need a black shortcut for my collection.  I might have to pay more and get it from MEC.  :-\

Target doesnt waste any time when it comes to clearing stuff off their shelves.  As I recall I paid about $12 for my clutch so appearently I shoulda held off a bit  :)

Are you referring to Gerber's Solstice?

The Solstice was such a colossal failure that it's a must have for any collector.  I liked it, but apparently I was about the only one!  :D

I'll never understand it...  I thought the Solstice was one of the best contraptions ever made seriously and for them to just discontinue it like that  >:(

So that makes 2 people that liked them then.  :D

I thought it was bloody awful!  Cack scissors, cack drivers, cack openers and an absolute cack way of attaching it to a keychain.  What is there to like?  :D

Nope, 'twas the design I couldn't stand.
