Gerber River Runner Knife

by Gerber

Product Description

Most of the time you will only need your knife to spread cream cheese on your bagel. However, in case of a rescue situation where you need quick access to a knife, this knife is easy to pull from the sheath and comfortable to grip in a wet & cold environment. This mid-sized knife is a favorite among commercial river guides. Molded friction release sheaths clip to a belt or the lash tab on your PFD. The River Runner incorporates a half smooth, half serrated blade and a pointy tip for puncturing a broached boat..

The knife was exactly what I expected. It clipped easily to my life vest and remains solidly it it's case. However, when needed, it comes out of the case very quickly and easily. The product arrived very quickly and compared to other online retailers, was very reasonably priced.

Good knife for the purpose. Adequate friction locking system for the sheath. I used it in saltwater over the Thanksgiving Holiday and washed it off each time after coming out of the water. There are some small rust spots on it at the machined areas (cutting surfaces) but they have been removed. Just need to make sure it is cleaned after each use.

I've owned my River Shorty for a few years and it never leaves my PFD. I use it mostly for cutting rope and mono filament line (I hate that stuff!). I've swam with it a couple of times unexpectedly and it never came loose from the sheaf when I bounced off rocks. Buy with confidence.
