Review: Gerber Dime Keychain Multi-Tool
I like knives. All kinds of knives. I have knives in every vehicle and a variety of EDC favorites some of which have traveled the globe with me. Of all my knives, I have a thing for small "micro" knives... as in easy to carry and inconspicuous. Multi-Tools are usually neither of these.
For me, a keychain has to be small enough to actually fit in my pocket since I only carry a couple keys most days so I was looking for something "keychain friendly" that wouldn't piss me off when I needed to stuff them in a pants pocket. It also needed to augment my larger EDC knives in a useful way. Sometimes whipping out an-folder in public to open a package, or a beer, isn't exactly a good call. Enter the diminutive, but deceptively capable, Dime from Gerber.
The bottom line? Gerber, based in Tigard, Oregon has a long tradition of quality knife making in the USA. Despite the move to "made in China" on much of their line, that tradition continues today with many modern innovations and unique designs made for the outdoor adventure market. The Gerber Dime, while not perfect for every situation where a blade or tool is indicated, is a nice way to augment your EDC with something light and unobtrusive. Fit and finish is excellent with a sleek and comfortable shape that stows easily in a pocket. Feature packed and priced around $20, it's a great value and won't ruin your day were it to go MIA in the woods. Visit Gerber for more info!
