All I know is that it's a Gerber and several years old. Maybe mid-late '90's








I tried to include anything that gave an identifying mark. If there is anything else you need, just say so. And Thanks in advance!

That's what I call a Gerber Multi-Plier (aka "Mr Pinchy") version 5.  For more info about the variants of the earliest Gerber MTs see this post:

Wow, that's great information. I knew I came to the right place. I'm sending these in for repair or replace as I finally broke them. Thanks to you guys for the warm welcome as well.

I don't know whether Gerber will still have the parts to fix yours, they haven't made Mr Pinchies for many years so you may end up with a more modern replacement (possibly an MP600).

I do have a Multiplier with intact pliers, but broken screwdriver. I´d let it go cheap so you can make one complete tool out of it, if you like (cheap reads 5,- € plus actual shipping)
And btw: Welcome on MTO!
