I know both Gerber and Leatherman are in the same city, but doesn't it seem strange that the same person would have knife blanks from both companys? :think:

But the blanks haven't been through the factory grind yet. :think: That suggests both companies are having their blades stamped out by (the same) secondary supplier? ???

In the interest of baring the naked truth, I think Multitool.org ought to buy me a plane ticket and send me to Portland to investigate 8)

Or maybe they are defects and the seller simply went dumpster diving (or that he works for a metal recycler).  :think:
