Gerber 800 Legend for sale
on: March 13, 2009, 10:14:19 AM
The 125th Victorinox Anniversary knives are here and I spend all my SAK budget on other SAKs  :ahhh :ahhh...

Well I got this Gerber 800 Legend for sale
It never been used (I just played with it so it got some minor scratches on the plier head from open and close it sorry). It come in Naylon pouch and with a small Torx wrench that can be use to open the bolts on that mutitool.

Pictures:




(Yeah I know two much pictures but I was carried away)

Price: 60$ include shipment to your place (worldwide)
Payment: Paypal please

I also got this Ritchartz knife with Mercedes-Benz name on it. Again never been used (not sure why in the pictures the black parts got white marks on them ...)


For that knife I am asking for 15$ (include shipment) (10$ if you buy the Legend).

Thanks for looking  ;)

Gotta admit this is tempting. The scissors are awesome, pliers spring action is super addictive, OH part-serrated blade is my favorite in multis and the Remgrit saw is something I think only a SURGE can match. The Legend is an absolute beauty, even with its stubby Gerber drivers. Still, it'll be a cold day in Hell...

I actually agree with you on that Rodion. I'll be honest and say that when I first saw the aluminium handles, I thought the thing looked really lightweight - in every sense of the word. But, I was wrong, it's a tough tool, and the grips do work, and the drivers are much better than some Gerber drivers, and the Remgrit saw is a fantastic piece of kit.

If anyone's thinking about it - you won't see another at this price for a while!

I used to come here a lot.

I have to say, that is the first Gerber to seriously tempt me. That is one cool design!  :tu:

I used to edc its smaller brother (mp700). As a design it has its shortcomings (as they all do) but also several strong points. On the cons, it features that mumbo-jumbo steel allow that all Gerbers do and nobody knows what exactly it is, it is a bit "fat" (both closed and open), has the famous stuby Gerber drivers (although they're much better than in other Gerber tools) and if you're half used to the f/f of SAKs/STs and the like this will probably let you down. ::) That said, the MP800 has also many pros: it is lightweight (all aluminium handles), has spring-loaded pliers, exchangeable carbide insert wire cutters, OH main blades, all locking and outside accessible implements, fiskars scissors, remgrit exchangeable saw, is user serviceable, the handles are contoured for comfort and have non-slip rubber inserts, and its functionality can be extended by using the gerber tool adapter and standard 1/4'' bits. :tu: Now, this is an array of characteristics I'd love to see in some of the "better" tools out there. Anyway, for the price, I think it's a great addition to any collection.
