Product Information

Help is on the way. That's the feeling a person gets when they clip this hard-charging tactical folder into their pocket. Because the Gerber Firestorm is a maelstrom of get-outta-my-way performance that gets the job done completely and decisively.

It's a heavy-duty unit with a thick blade rendered from stainless steel. The prominent finger keeps your digits out of harms way, and assists with easy opening in a hurry. The ergonomically conceived handle is stainless steel sandwiched between polycarbonate that's been sculpted and textured for maximum no-slip confidence.

The fearlesss Firestorm was designed by none other than . And it's earned the endorsement and recommendation of the National Tactical Officers Association; law enforcement professionals who do not suffer fools lightly, let alone gear that falters in the line of duty. Fortunately, the Firestorm fulfills its mission in big, bad way.

Tanto
Tanto Blade: The classic Japanese tanto shape has the point exactly inline with the spine of the blade, and has a graceful belly curve. Most tantos seen on the American cutlery market are the Americanized tanto format. Like the Japanese tanto, the Americanized tanto has a high-point in-line with the spine. A flat grind is applied to the point, leaving it very thick and massively strong. The front edge meets the bottom edge at an obtuse angle, rather than curving to meet it as in the Japanese tanto. There is a separate grind applied to the bottom edge, often a hollow grind to leave this edge extremely sharp. Other tanto formats have become popular also, and modifications such as clipping the point or applying a chisel-grind are often seen.

Glass filled nylon
Glass Filled Nylon Material: Many of today's thermoplastic materials are improved by adding chopped glass fibers. Often as much as 40% of a product may be glass. Adds great strength.
