Tried google lens for the green Gerber but couldn’t find anything. Anyone know any info.
Was gonna email Gerber but thought a forum might be quicker.

It's a Gerber Multi-lite, it was my first multitool.

Thank you, trying to work out if I should buy it, but didn’t know what it was and the seller doesn’t know either.

My suggestion is, if your looking for something with history or getting into collecting it's a great item to buy. It served me many years until I got a Wave. The thing with the Multi-lite is it's a good tool, very reminiscent of a swiss army knife but pales in comparison to other options out there. The LED on it is so outdated it's not funny. If I ever get one again it'll be for nostalgic sake but I don't think I'll ever carry one.

If you like it and the price then buy it.

They weren't that popular when new, I suspect because they are a bit bulky for the tool load they offer, and no pliers.  There are several different tool loads, and a few different coloured lids.  They came with some small tools in the lid, but these are often lost.

Don't expect too much illumination from the LED, even with new batteries the light was feeble.
