Attention to detail. These are just a few of the company traits that have 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.It makes sense, really. An idea man gets the idea of a lifetime and turns it into a major outdoor brand--one that commands respect among knife lovers and knife makers alike. And now that same high regard is spreading in new directions, in the form of many outstanding products such as tools, personal L.E.D. lighting, and more.What's in the BoxGerber 06050 Ultralight L.S.T. Folding Knife. Product Description With the Gerber Gear LST Ultralight Pocket Knife, we took the standard pocket knife and made it better. Made in the USA and brought to market by none other than Pete Gerber himself, this classic ultralight pocket knife is a beautifully simple folding knife with a plain edge locking blade that is lightweight, easy to clean, and opens effortlessly. Weighing only 0.60 ounces, the LST Ultralight Pocket Knife features a checkered glass-filled nylon handle to ensure strength, durability, a non-slip grip, a lanyard hole, and a lock-back design. So it's an effortless addition to your pocket or on a lanyard. Elevate your camping gear, emergency survival kit, hiking accessories, and job performance with this everyday mini pocket knife whose minimal design means it can travel with you anywhere. Like all Gerber products, this convenient Gerber pocket knife is backed by the Gerber Guarantee, our limited lifetime warranty. From the Manufacturer Now here's a knife with some mighty impressive roots. It was brought to market back in 1980 by none other than the man whose last name goes on each of our products. Pete Gerber was the first knife creator to envision the merits of using all-synthetic materials in the handle. He and knife designer Blackie Collins aimed to deliver lightweight performance that had not been seen before in a knife this all-out rugged. The Gerber L.S.T. is the smoothest of operators. With a mechanical action that just feels good and satisfying when you open and close the blade, which happens to be made of 400 series stainless steel. But let's get back to the topic of lightweight performance. The heaviest of the four legendary L.S.T. models musters a mere 1.2-Ounce on the scales. Yet, when you feel that easy grip, there's no question that Pete Gerber's big idea is one for the ages. Overall Length: 6.1-Inch, Length Closed: 3.61-Inch, Length of Blade: 2.63-Inch, Weight: 1-1/5-Ounce, Blade Material: 420HC Stainless Steel, Handle Material: Glass-filled nylon, Blade Style: Drop Point, Blade Type: Fine

Review: Nice coin pocket EDC knife - I carry mine everyday (for the past 3 years) in the coin pocket of my jeans. It's the perfect size for that. And (I forgot to mention this in my video) the textured part at one end makes it easy to pull out of the pocket with a thumb. It's very lightweight (about the same as the USB flash drive I carry along side it in my coin pocket) but I haven't found the plastic handle to be a problem. For the scale of work you'll be doing with a knife this size, it's plenty strong. The price is reasonable, and I am happy with it. UPDATE 5/8/2013: I still have this knife, but it currently sits in the kitchen relegated to opening plastic food bags and poking holes in box dinners so they don't explode in the microwave. That's not to say that I like it any less than when I was carrying it daily, it's just that I found other things that I like even more (but they cost more too). I replaced this Gerber with a similarly sized Spyderco Ladybug, and the Ladybug is better in every way except price; it's better steel, seems to sharpen sharper, and stays sharp longer, the plastic handle is even grippier, it's easier to open one-handed due to the thumb hole, and it's available in at least a dozen different colors (I got the purple). But it was 2x the price of this Gerber (actually now it looks more like 3x). So the Gerber Ultralight LST is still a fantastic value, but if you can spare another fifteen or twenty dollars I'm almost certain you'll like the Spyderco Ladybug more.
Review: Hands Down Best Folding Pocket Knife for the Money! - I have been using the Gerber LST folding knives for well over a decade, and they are GREAT little knives. I keep the smallest version in my pocket at all times, especially at work. It's so small and light, you forget it's in there, but when you need it, it's ready. These little blades keep their edge for a ridiculously long time. The next size up is perfect when working outside, camping, fishing or hunting. It's just big enough to get most outdoor jobs done, but small enough not to get in the way or weigh you down. I have one in each of my backpacks, all my outdoor gear bags, one (maybe two) in my truck and one in my pocket if I'm outdoors. They're just too awesome, cheap and handy not to have them lying around. I use the biggest size for cleaning harvested animals and it is by far my favorite knife for the task. I have purchased dozens of specialty knives over the years that promise to make cleaning game a little easier, but every time, I go back to my little Gerber LST and knock it out. The drop point is perfect for removing the hide without puncturing it and it just fits well in the hand. One of the best things about the LST line is how long the edge lasts. I only need to sharpen and LST after cleaning two or three animals. Most other knives require several sharpenings per animal. It's handy, it's inexpensive, it's tough, it's light... why wouldn't you have this in your pocket? Get this little knife and prepare to purchase several more, you're going to love it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality and made in U.S.A.
*by S***B on August 11, 2025*

I was looking for a small pocket knife and wanted something that was made in the USA. I think the U.S. makes the best quality knives overall and this one does not disappoint. It is extremely light to the point it’s easy to forget you have it on you. Blade is great quality and very sharp!
