First post! here is one I picked up at the flea market this past Saturday. For $10, I couldn't say no. Sorta, kinda looks like it's polished blue. (Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)(Image removed from quote.)
Hello and welcome to the forum Jf The scissors would have had a spring.see here https://forum.multitool.org/index.php?topic=74830.msg1596459#msg1596459
Welcome aboard! I have never taken a Gerber apart, so I can't advise as to whether yours may have a broken or missing spring. However, I am sure another member will chime in. And hope to see more photos of your Gerber collection sometime!
But don't be fooled, even with a spring those scissors are pretty useless... later on when Fiskars got involved the Gerber scissors were vastly improved.
