Multi tool blades

Does anyone know if the blades from the old multi plier(non locking) will fit in the mp400 ?

Keep in mind I am comparing a Carolina Knife and Tool version of the Multiplier (not actually made be Gerber, but made to the same design) and my MP400, so there is a chance this doesn't apply at all. ;)

OK, first of the pivots on my Multiplier are much smaller than the pivots on my MP400, so it would need drilling out.  Also the 'flat' where the spring/lock meets the blade is not long enough on the Multiplier so that would need re-shaping.  Other than that it does look like it might fit, but without removing the blade from my Multiplier it's hard to say for sure.

If you are just looking to add a plain edge blade to a MP400, you might not know that all the blades/tool from a MP600 will just drop right into a MP400, no modifications required.  Hope that helps. :)

Awesome.  Thanks Gareth, I will have to check the bay for a used mp600 with an intact plain edge.

Stainless.  Sorry to take so long in getting back, I am travelling and we have wifi at the hotel I am staying at for a few days.

I´ve got one of the Sheepsfoot ones (straight edge with no curve). Needs to be sharpenend but will work.
If that is what you´re looking for, PM me.
