Title: Smith & Wesson -Suspension Knockoff
Post by: Yadda on August 27, 2018, 06:02:25 AM: As has been said by others, this is a knock off of the Gerber Suspension or turnabout. Nowhere near the same quality and the tool load is slightly different, but the Sheath is nice. A couple of side by sides for comparison.

Thanks for sharing this comparison! :salute:

Did yours have "1st Production Run" etched on the blade ? Several of mine have (S & W must have thought it made them "collectable" or something) :rofl:

No, no blade etching. Do you think I have a production error? :rofl:
