I managed to dig out this old post of Bob's;

Speaking of colored full size multi's... I was in a local hunting/fishing store the other day and they had a full sized Gerber multitool in Hunter Orange.  I didn't catch the model because it was locked in a glass display case.  The price on it was $60.

That the same place that has the Kershaw? It sounds like quite the multitool retail outlet.

The colored Gerbers were part of the Build Your Own Gerber program they did back in 2001. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but only lasted about a year.

The colored tools were spray painted. The gloss color finish looked good, a lot better than the Bear Jaws finish.

The link Bob provided is worth a read as well. :)

In that link there is this rather small pic that I've roughly blown up;



I believe it shows all the colour options that Gerber offered at the time.

Thanks for the info. I will give the link a look.  :tu:

Was the Camo MP600 not part of this promotion?  :think:
