The Gerber Paraframe I features a unique open-frame handle design that's as practical as it is cool-looking. The lightweight handle is made from stainless steel, and it’s paired with a 3-inch fold-out, plain-edge blade crafted from high-carbon stainless steel. The blade has a thumb knob to help you open it smoothly, and a frame lock keeps the blade firmly in place, so it won’t wobble or accidentally fold up when in use. It's designed for maximum portability: The handle has a pocket clip for toting on a pair of pants or a belt, and the whole package weighs just 2.6 ounces.

Knife enthusiasts are a finicky bunch, but reviewers have come to a clear consensus on the Paraframe I: It’s great. One shopper attested that it offers “durability that you can count on” and said that after a quick run through a sharpener, it becomes “as sharp as any factory knife, even at double the price.” Another agreed , saying, “This blade comes with an excellent build quality for such an affordable price.”
