First Gerber try part 4
on: September 06, 2014, 09:20:02 PM
First I saw a nice cheap BO MP400 for 10 Euros, but it got sold before I could snatch it.
Than I got a strange Gerber knife that proved to be fake.
Than I bought a Gerber Dime for 10 Euros and the seller decided not to sell it in the end (good thing I haven't paid in advance).

Now I saw this for 16 Euros.
I think it's a MP400 (?) but I don't see the spike-thingie, the plastic locks and the ear-thingie looks strange.
  • Is it real?
  • If it is, what model is it?
  • Is it worth my hard earned pennies or should I wait for another one? To be honest my Spirit fills all multitool needs, I'd just get this to flick around and say I have a Gerber  :D

PS: Here old Multipliers are in the 50 Euro range and new ones in the 100 Euro range...

Mate,that's Mr Pinchy,not a MPxxx.

It's the original flicky plier Gerber,with non locking tools. At €16, I'd grab it with both hands!
There is no beginning,or ending,and for this we are thankful,cos now is hard enough to understand!

Yap, thanks. Nub me  :twak:

I googled a MP400 and saw Chako's photo, than realised what it is.


Still didn't know if it's worth owning it as my main flicky. Thanks for the suggestion. Trying to negociate free shipping now  :D

If you are looking for a MP 400 or 600, let me know I do have some Ss/BO ones and am sure I could be talked out of one for a good price.

Sent pm. Please sent me a reply tonight so I can cancel the Mr. Pinchy if needed (it's supposed to be shipped out tomorrow morning).

At 16 Euros I'd definitely get it anyway, I'd certainly buy it from you if you didn't like it. :tu:
