If we tell you that this engineering masterpiece was inspired by the bridges of Portland, Oregon—we've got more than our share, here—don't make the mistake of thinking that Gerber's gotten all misty-eyed and romantic. On the contrary, the Suspension has all the down-and-dirty performance characteristics a tough guy would expect.

This is a classic workhorse with spring-loaded pliers, our patented Saf.T.Plus™ component locking system, a ballistic nylon sheath, and the very same structural integrity that goes into every Gerber tool.

Oh sure, it's a sleek looking son-of-gun. And the open-frame configuration is something of a break-though where the industry is concerned. But just because its got nice lines, there's no reason you can't use it in some pretty ugly situations. In fact, we dare ya.
