    Gerber not Gerber

    Thanks for the responses. I have always liked Gerber quality...and if they are now owned by Fiskars that should help me convince my wife that I need a new knife and she can have new sewing shears.

    I may be wrong BUT... a "sniper" in the military term does much more then just shoot, they may sit for days observing the target, they will make notes (such as how many bad guys there are, patrols if any, number of windows, doors, entrances and exits etc.) and send info back to be disseminated...
