Gerber Gator Clip Point Serrated Folding Knife

The Gator Clip Point Serrated is a partially serrated clip point folding knife designed for those who work outdoors or in the field with hands that are frequently wet or dirty. The 420HC stainless steel blade measures 95 mm, giving an overall open length of 218 mm and a closed length of 126 mm. Weight is 153 g.

420HC steel is a deliberate choice that prioritises corrosion resistance and field sharpenability over maximum hardness: it handles moisture well and can be brought back to a working edge with basic tools, unlike high-carbon steels that demand more specialised sharpening equipment. The clip point profile concentrates the tip for precise work, while the serrated section along the spine cuts fibrous materials — cord, webbing, branches — without requiring excessive force. That combination works well for hunting and general outdoor use; anyone who needs a fully plain edge for clean slicing cuts will find the non-serrated version more suitable.

The lock-back keeps the blade firmly in place during use and releases with deliberate pressure on the spine notch: a well-proven mechanism that remains reliable with gloves on, though closing does require two hands. The glass-filled nylon handle is coated with Gator Grip overmold, a rubberised scale texture that maintains grip with wet or greasy hands without adding meaningful weight. The included sheath is ballistic nylon with a clip, compatible with a belt or tactical MOLLE attachment.
