It's a Chinese stainless steel roughly on par with 440A or AUS-6--one of the more highly stain-resistant, but generally overly-soft and cheapest steels on the market. A good heat treat can make it decent, but it's chemical composition will not allow it to ever be a spectacular performer. It's also the Chinese equivalent of a German steel popular in German cutlery, but like I said, there's only so much a maker can do with it, even with good heat treat protocols...A factor I doubt Gerber can or cares to control much with their overseas blade production. Churn them out fast, sell them cheap.It makes me sad that Gerber abandoned the S30V steel, USA-made stag-handled version, which was, in my opinion, one of the best hunting knives made. I assume that Freeman is unhappy to have his name associated with something Gerber apparently no longer cares much about. Although the design, hasn't changed, the steel on this will need to be sharpened probably 3-5 times more frequently. S30V is a steel designed by Crucible Metallurgy from the ground up specifically for cutlery. Crucible makes use of a powdered metallurgy technique that produces much smaller, more highly refined, more evenly distributed carbides throughout in the steel's crystalline structure. That technique paired with a good steel recipe, and the cryogenic heat treatment protocols makes it one of the new breed of so-called "super steels" that are popular with knife enthusiasts, including CPM154 (a powdered metallurgy version of the popular 154 CM steel), 3V, CPM-D2 (a new take on a classic tool steel), and S35VN from Crucible, Elmax from Bohler-Uddeholm, and HAP40 from Hitachi. **Q: is this knife made in china?** A: Yes, this knife is made in China **Q: Can i use this as an edc knife ?** A: A typical Gerber multitool sheath is 5-6 inches closed and 2.6 to 3 inches wide. This knife is 4.5 inches closed. This knife weighs 6.6 oz. My multitool weighs 7.7 oz. I don't even feel my multitool on my belt anymore. Depending on where you are, be prepared for an idiot or two to make a big deal about a larger folder where they can see it. They'll even ask what's in the sheath once in a while. Another suggestion is to have a knife in various places, desk draws, backpacks, tool belts, vehicles. You don't have to keep a knife on you to have access to one when you want it. And you can keep some larger fixed blades off-body. **Q: Is this knife made in USA? Thanks** A: Nope. Still a decent blade for the money. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by H***4 on 23 July 2025* Buen peso manejable.
