Gerber Knives is a name most people associate with great knives.

Gerber knives are a name most people associate with great knives. They have been making pocket knives since 1939 and were founded in Portland, Oregon. Its location is now in Tigard, Oregon and was established by Pete Gerber. Gerber knives are now a subdivision of a company called Fiskars Brands Inc. Witch is located in Finland.

This company is the first knife production company that works with custom knife makers and also works with other knife companies to try to come up with the best knife designs. The first Gerber knives where kitchen sets were shipped to customers during the holidays. Abercrombie & Fitch wanted Gerber to make more of these knives to sell in their catalog. That year was the year that Gerber began manufacturing knives on a much larger scale. As I said before, they were later taken over by Fiskars in 1987 and by 2003 they reached sales of over $100 million. They are also one of the leading multi-tool sellers in the country. There are multi-tools that are of the best quality and can make life much easier.

Gerber knives have worked with many different designs and designers. Designers like Bob Loveless, Blackie Collins, Fred Carter and Ernest Emerson. Also many employees who once worked for this company have gone on and made the Knife company very successful. People like Al Mar and Pete Kershaw.

Gerber has many great designs such as the bolt-action sock system, multi-tools, button-lock Paul knives, and clip-it dive knives. Gerber never stops trying to make pocket knives and hunting knives better for everyone. The constant fight to make knives better is a testament to their products.
