MP400 Owners Club
on: May 24, 2017, 02:32:29 PM
Can't seriously believe that there isn't already one of these on the go, but I can't find one so.........

As a relatively new Gerber owner, I am completely smitten with the MP400. Ok, so Kev spoiled me rotten with a BO model, (and I have a SS 600 on the way from the magnificant Toolslinger), but even a non-BO 400 would have knocked my socks off.

'Beautifully industrial' as The Peacant put it - everything on this baby screams 'Use me'. I love that you can mod it pretty easily and the icing on the cake is the one handed flicky opening.  :ahhh I've put my Spirit away for now and am considering gifting it to my daughter sometime soon.

Celebrate with me MP400 owners - what do you love about yours?

Just what the flip is going on fella's? No pics, no tools, no MP400 Owners Club thread? Which parallel universe have I stumbled into this time? Next thing you'll be telling me that Mo and Harley aren't happily married and celebrating their 4th baby on the way.  :facepalm:

Well, it's not a Gerber, but hey, at least it's a tool.
Hope this helps Mags.

Can't say I'm surprised. I'm sorry though Mo, if it helps, I don't think you'll be on the market for too long - you're the whole package.  :cheers:

Good luck with the child support too.  :salute:

Love the MP400! It's a great urban carry especially when you swap out the knife for a file and go bladeless. Kinda surprised Gerber doesn't sell a bladeless version like the MP600. I read Magentus' recent post on the Spirit vs the MP400 and found myself really interested in the Spirit...so much so I got my GF one to replace her old SOG. Mine is coming soon :)  But even though those two MTs are similar in size, the Gerber still feels beefier. I like that the tools inside the MP400 are the same ones from the full size MP600. Most "compact" versions of MT's feature "compact" tools . This is a hard use tool made with smaller pliers and a slimmer tool selection: live with less but put it to hard use. Also I really like Gerber pliers, they deploy quickly and have great geometry with a comfortable grip. Here's a pic of my MP425 bladeless, it's made up of a cheap MP400 tool I found in great shape on eBay and some spare parts from a MP600. I've also got a standard MP400 which I got new a while back for weekend carry.

Nice post Chris! Pics too, and extra points for including the right tool.  :cheers: See people, it's not that hard (Back off PFRSANTOS  :D )

Looking forward to hearing your views on the Spirit.  :salute:
