Stainless Gerber EOD
on: September 05, 2018, 04:43:57 AM
Ok so first off I hope its OK for me to link to a sale on another forum.  If this is against the rules I hope the mods close this thread.  I don't know the seller and am only posting this because I think it might be of interest to someone on MTO.

Over on BF a member is selling 4 Gerber MP600 EODs.  The thing that caught my eye is that one of them is NOT black.  I don't think I've ever seen an EOD multitool that wasnt BO but I'm no expert.  Hopefully not a knock off?  Here's the link if someone is interested in taking a peek....

If I was a betting man I'd put money on the SS one being a fake (notice the different knife blade and no saw exchanger tool).

I've bought a couple of the fake SS EOD MP600s, but they are pretty rare these days.

I wondered about that, plus the lack of a standard Gerber sheath.  Did Gerber ever make an SS EOD model? Didn't know if it was maybe just an older model.  Buyer beware I suppose.

 Yeah. I would call that a fake as well. Its not that common but is readily available on some Chinese website.

I've never seen genuine Gerber one.  That doesn't mean Gerber didn't, but if they did it is extremely rare.

Could you please PM me a link ?  I wouldn't mind adding a couple of SS EOD (DET) MP600 MTs to my collection of odd-ball knock-offs.

Thanks Sam.  That is one of the crappiest ordering systems I've ever used, but I think (hope ? ) I got there in the end.  I guess I'll find out eventually ;)

Lol. Maybe by area.. Here there's a app for that. I have an account on it and I can buy something off there in 10 secs... And, that's dangerous......
