Fake or Real, DPSF S30v, help needed
on: October 23, 2020, 09:42:46 AM
Hello gents and ladies.
I would need your expertise. I ended with this folder,  and now i'm selling it. The possible buyer has concerns and now i have too.
Is this folder genuine or not. I had Gerber products before,  nothing seems out of the ordinary, blade and folder in total is well manufactured, blade locks solid. Searching on internet i saw multiple pictures identical to my folder yet also some with different logo and inscripts.
All in all, is this original or a well manifactured clone? For what can i search.
Thank you in advance

There was a time when Gerber had a link to counterfeit tools, but when they redid the page a couple of years back removed it; I'm unable to find it.
Maybe write to them an inquiry and add the pictures?

info@gerbergear.com

Good luck.
