Product Description

With the Gerber Gear Paraframe Mini Pocket Knife, we took the standard pocket knife and made it better. The smallest of eight knives in our Paraframe series, this mini pocket knife is a beautifully simple open-frame knife with a plain edge locking blade that is lightweight, easy to clean and opens effortlessly. The Paraframe Mini Pocket Knife features a plain edge blade, clip point blade, nail nick, a frame lock handle, and a sturdy pocket clip; an effortless addition to your pocket. Elevate your camping gear, emergency survival kit, hiking accessories, and job performance with this everyday mini pocket knife that's minimal design means it can travel with you anywhere.

From the Manufacturer

If Gerber had settled for making just one version of the Paraframe knife, people might have been content. Because this reputable example of frame lock design caught on admirably among knife lovers. Making the Paraframe a mainstay of the industry. But we figured there's no merit in being stingy, so we worked up a total of eight versions. And the people were pleased. There is a simplicity to this knife that relates as much to function as it does to form. It's a breeze to open. The clip point blade configuration is ideal for cutting in close-Quarters. Openness rules the day where the handle is concerned&no.8212;there's more air than metal&no.8212;so it's quite lightweight and quite easy to keep clean. Clip a Paraframe into your pocket and you're fully equipped to take care of business. Your only challenge is figuring out which one.

My favorite small knife (after a month)
5 Stars
My favorite small knife (after a month)
I'm no knife expert. Definitely not a knife snob. I'm not using this knife for survival or defense...I hang it inside my pants pocket and use it to cut stuff. If that is how you plan to use it, I recommend that you give it a try.I really like this little knife. I wasn't sure if I would like it, but the ridiculously-low price enticed me to give it a try. After using it for a month, I wouldn't have been disappointed if it had cost a few bucks more. It came reasonably sharp (not shaving-sharp, but paper-slicing sharp) and has held that edge for the short time I have been using it. It is light. My cheap kitchen scale says it is 1.4oz or 40 grams, so it weighs about the same as $1.75 in quarters. For being so small and light, it feels quite solid to me. It opens smoothly and has no wiggle in the blade when locked open. It looks like it has a (nylon?) washer next to the blade to keep it snug and smooth. Hopefully that will last for a long time because I imagine the blade would wiggle a bit if that wore out.I saw several reviews that said it can't be opened and closed with one hand. I didn't find that to be true. It would be lot lot easier to open 1-handed if they added a thumb stud or extended the back of the blade, but I don't have a lot of trouble with it unless my fingers are slippery. In any case, I find it easy to close with one hand. Not always the case with lock blades.The one problem I have with this knife is the center hole on the side opposite of the clip is large enough to get a fingertip into when digging around in your pocket. It is POSSIBLE to nick your finger on the blade if you're not careful; not too likely, but possible. I find that clipping the knife inside my pocket at the top makes it easier to find and makes it less likely to nick my finger when feeling around in my pocket. I haven't actually cut myself yet, but buyers should be aware of that until Gerber changes the frame design.Overall, this has become my favorite small knife for everyday carry. I also carry the tiny Swiss Army Classic, but this knife is much better for cutting things more substantial than an apple. If you're on the fence, just give it a try (before they realize they could charge a few dollars more.) I'm buying another in case I lose this one.

Update 6/27/2023: Still works great. In my 5th pocket every day. I sharpen on 1000 then 6000 grain wet stones every few months. Still unhappy with the unlock to close method (detailed below), but it gets less annoying over time. The push 'button' on the back of the handle is a better, safer, simpler method, but some prefer this type because of the unlikelihood of accidentally closing. The knife gets closed every time it's opened and each time is a risk of a knick. Accidentally closing a knife with the other type is far less likely to occur.

Still love it and use it every day. Very handy and still looks new.

They only had the grey one when I ordered I think and I got the mini for the small jean pocket, but I'm checking the others out now.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
The knife is great. 5-1/8" fully open. 3-1/16" closed. I've gone through (aka lost) 7 small folding knives in the last decade. I don't like the closing method on this knife. But the side or back button small pocket knives are tough to find. This would be 5 stars if it had a button or a slightly easier to press lock (to unlock) when closing the blade. I knew the type of lock before purchasing, but needed a new one for a camping trip and couldn't find back or side button models under $10.
It folds open nicely with a light thump to lock open. It was sharp enough to cut a piece of notebook paper out of the box, but does so much better after 2-3 minutes of sharpening on a small whetstone. VERY sharpe now. It's lighter than the knives I've been using and the pocket clip is strong and feels sturdy. Has a low profile in my jean's 5th pocket. If bent, the clip may feel loose or jiggle, but it's stronger out of the box than my other knife clips were.
For less than $8, out of the box it's better than other knives I've gotten out of the box for about the same money.
I've had $30-60 knives and some are made better, but I've never had a sub $10 knife that couldn't get the same task done just as well as a more expensive knife.
Will report back if any issues occur.

The blade locks firmly in open position with no noticeable side wobble. Blade is crisp and sharp. Great little knife for everyday use, like opening Amazon Boxes.

I have a few Gerber knives all very good in their own way. This I saw as a small parcel opening knife and tiny pocket knife for garden use. But this knife is so well built I will end up using it more than some of my larger ones! There is genuinely zero tolerance in the construction. When unfolded there is not even a wobble either side to side or up and down it’s amazing for this price point. Amazing little knife and at this price I would recommend.

Das Messer ist stabil, man kann es leicht an der Hosentasche oder am Gürtel befestigen. Mir gefällt auch, daß es relativ klein ist. Mit der Schärfe hatte ich bisher keine Probleme.
