Is that not a pic of the old version?

I thought Gerber revamped the MP series with a new knife blade. Didn't think they changed the finish. Could just be the lighting on the photo.

(Not my pic. Posted by Dunc in a previous thread)

If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck.

Ok I see whats happened , I'm talking about the finish on the tool asnd the website is taking you guys to the UK site where its still an old picture  :think:
 
 Right this is a bit round the houses but click on this http://bit.ly/SRHwiG  then click on Gerber in the top right corner then do a search for MP 400.

Interesting. The finish looks 'rough'.

That does look different.  Not sure if I like it or not, but it is different.
Be excellent to each other and always know where your towel is.

Hello Duncan - It's the way the photo makes it look. It's still the MP400 that is made here in the US.
