Secure Attachment

Customers have mixed opinions regarding the secure attachment of the Gerber Strap Cutter. While some are pleased with its ease of attachment to tactical vests, IFAK pouches, and Jeep Wrangler roof latches using the included clips, others find it difficult to attach to standard belts or Molle systems due to its small size and poor retention.

Quality


This is a great product and cuts very well.


I really like the quality of the knife itself.


My fingers still hurt from trying to get it on and off and i even bled a little.


One of the (very) few items you'll see on amazon that is not made in china

Price


A little pricey, but better than burning alive in a vehicle rollover.

Packaging/appearance


Arrives in just a plastic bag with instructions.

Competitiveness


Ordered this gerber along with two of its more expensive competitors.
