Gerber Multi tool, is a product of Gerber Legendary Blades, which, is owned by Fiskars Corporation. Gerber has been developing tools for over 70 years now. Since the very beginning, Gerber Legendary Blades has been into creating top quality products. However quality obviously comes at a price.

In today's world, the Gerber ranks second in the sales of multi tools all over the United States. This is precisely because of the fact that it is produced using the best quality materials combined with highly cutting edge design. The cutting edge technology used in the production of every Gerber tool makes sure that the products are extremely efficient, user friendly and reliable.

Each Gerber tool comes loaded with numerous features The materials used in making every part of the multi tool are of very high standards and there is not much space left for complaints. The blades are made using different materials to give it strength, lusture and longetivity. Materials such as 154CM, 420HC, 6061 Aircraft alloy, ATS34, AUS6 etc are used which are a mixture of various materials such as carbon, chromium, nickel, manganese, molybdenum etc mixed in the perfect proportions to give you the toughest and the most robust products. Some of the alloys used in the making of a Gerber tool are produced exclusively by Gerber. They follow the process of anodization in which a metal, usually aluminium, is coated with a layer of oxide using electro chemical conversion. This process protects the outer and the inner layers of the metal and saves it from abrasions, tarnish and also preserves the beauty of the tool for a longer period.

Every muti tool is made to go through a hardness test called Rockwell's test. It is important to score between 50 to 60 on the Rockwell scale to pass the test. A Gerber multi tool comes with either a one year or a lifetime complete replacement warranty depending upon the user and the cause of damage.

Based on the things mentioned above and also the immense work that goes into creating one of the best multi tools in the world, I think it is completely justified for a Gerber multi tool to be priced on the more expensive side as like I said "Quality comes at a price."
