Need help with identifying this old Gerber model
on: August 03, 2022, 06:34:32 PM
Hello, this is my 2nd post I'm new here.

I've had this old Gerber USA made multi tool for a long time. I got it about very early 1990 maybe 1991? I forget the model and hopefully one of your guys knows. I think it has LT at the end? Maybe my old mind is wrong about that. There was some branches of the U.S. Military that used this model from what I can remember as well. Thank You, I'm really happy to be here.

Thank You for the warm Welcome..  :hatsoff: And the links as well.. seems to still be getting a great price used, after all these years. While it does not have a lot of tools I can say that over the years it has helped me out. I have in a emergency bag. While I have a random cheaper multi tools, I do also carry with me in my main work bag a Gerber Suspension over the past 6 years.. And that one is still going great.

Welcome!  The Suspension is a great tool!  It's not the quantity of tools but what they can do for you.  I love old multi tools  :tu:
