Strong, Innovative Open-Frame Design
Strong yet lightweight, the Suspension Multi-Plier offers the durability of stainless steel construction along with an aluminum butterfly-opening handle that's inspired by the precision engineering of Portland, Oregon's famous suspension bridges. Like those time-tested iron bridges, this tool is designed to deliver the down-and-dirty performance that you demand from your tools.

But performance isn't everything. The tool's unique suspension-style handle sits comfortably in your hand, giving it a well-balanced feel. Compact enough to satisfy the most demanding minimalists, and cool enough for any gadget guy or girl, the Suspension Multi-Plier offers a sleek, streamlined design that will look as good as it performs.

Reliable, Easy-to-Access Tools Keep You Prepared
Whether you're at home, on the road, at a muddy jobsite, or deep in the backcountry, you can't predict what you'll be up against. The Suspension Multi-Plier is fitted with 11 tools that will give you the edge in virtually any situation.

Starting with the knives, you have the choice of a straight blade for fine-tune cutting, or a serrated blade that's great for cutting rope.

This tool also includes a Phillips screwdriver along with large and medium flathead screwdrivers, as well as a dedicated wire cutter/stripper. Unlike bulky squared-off pliers on many multi-tools, the needle-nose pliers at the center of this tool are designed for the tightest of spots. And they're spring loaded so that they open when you release your grip, which makes working with them easy, pinch free and intuitive.

Other useful features hidden away in the handle of the Suspension include scissors, a bottle opener, a can opener, saw, an awl, and a lanyard ring.

Safe, User-Friendly Design
If you've ever had a folding knife close on your hand in the middle of making a tough cut, you'll have a special appreciation for Gerber's Saf.T.Plus system, which locks components securely in place for worry-free use.

Even with this lock system, deployment is quick and easy. Gerber's user-friendly design makes it simple to access any tool that you need--just slide the lock-release button back and get set for the task at hand.

This Gerber Multi-Tool also comes with a nylon ballistic-cloth sheath so that you can keep it protected from the elements when it's not in use.

If you're looking for even more versatility, Gerber offers an add-on tool kit that contains an adapter, three different sizes of flathead bits, cross point bits, and hex head bits for increased functionality. Also available are several a convenient sharpening systems that can help you keep the blades on your multi-tool in top condition without the hassle of using a whetstone or a round file, including the DF6 Compact Sharpener and the DF8 Sharpener, which uses unique diamond fingers to acheive a perfect 30 degree angle every time you sharpen a blade (tool kit and sharpeners not included).

Gerber's History of Ingenuity
Savvy. Moxie. Craftsmanship. Attention to detail. These are just a few of the company traits that contributed to Gerber's emergence as a world leader in outdoor gear. Joseph Gerber started Portland, Oregon's Gerber Advertising back in 1910, and one Christmas, he hired a local knife-maker to craft 25 sets of kitchen cutlery as client gifts. The knives were so popular, Mr. Gerber ultimately left his agency to launch Gerber Legendary Blades in 1939.

For more than half a century, Gerber Legendary Blades has been helping people fend for themselves. Gerber designs popular, dependable tools and knives along with other outdoor gear that helps users accomplish whatever tasks they may be faced with, promoting the lost art of self-reliance.

Suspension Multi-Tool and nylon sheath.

5 out of 5 stars Gerber delivers again   September 6, 2010
Bradley J. Hoeflicker (Hendersonville, TN)
What can anyone say about Gerber? I hope they don't get to big headed and start producing junk.
There products are amazing. I really don't leave home without this on my belt. I'm a Gerber fan and
will always be if they keep making great products. The knife is sharp, the pliers are spring loaded.
The tools are made to resist rust and extreme force so they don't bend easliy. It is light weight and
fits in your hand naturally.



5 out of 5 stars Gift for Dad   August 29, 2010
Crystal Reeb (Corpus Christi, TX USA)
I bought this as a gift for dad. He loved it. He collects knives and this was a great addition for him. Was very pleased with the speed of shipment.


5 out of 5 stars Awesome Multi-Tool.... Highly Recommend!   August 29, 2010
z0mbie.hack3r
Tool is lighter than most multi-tools. I use this tool almost everyday. It comes in handy when fixing computers or racking servers. This tool comes in handy when opening various types of boxes and keeping zombies off you or your co-worker.


5 out of 5 stars Sturdy, well-made multi-tool   July 20, 2010
GMan (Pittsburgh PA)
The Gerber 01471 Multi-Tool has all the essential tools that I need for quick daily tasks that don't require the big toolbox. It is well made, solid, using high quality steel for blade and tools. It is certainly not designed for small hands, in particular the pliers - that's exactly why I bought it. The screwdrivers, both blade and Philips, are constructed of high quality steel and have already held up to some heavy jobs. One of the decisive reasons for my purchase was Gerber's blade and tool lock mechanism - it works and makes this tool much safer than others in my arsenal. Highly recommended, in particular for the sale price. I am thinking about buying a few more as gifts for my handy relatives - the ones with big hands :)


2 out of 5 stars Go for a Leatherman   July 17, 2010

I bought a Gerber Suspension at Walmart on clearance for $11.00 and that was too much for the tool. The wire cutters are worthless and dull. I couldn't even cut bailing wire. Incredibly heavy.... Handles are awkward and spring loaded, when you squeeze on the pliers you have a spring fighting against you and they want to open right back up. The tool is also made in china so who knows how reliable the workmanship is. Get yourself a leatherman.
