Blade made of 7Cr17MoVsteel

The blade is made of 7Cr17MoV. That sounds like quite the mouthful, but it's actually simple. It is a stainless steel, it is easy to sharpen, it offers good sharpness retention and, above all, it's budget-friendly. In the US, 7Cr17MoV is also known as 440A steel.

The blade is enhanced with a coating. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has not specified which type of coating has been applied, however, what we do know is that a coating generally protects against corrosion. However, it is always possible for the coating to start showing traces of use after a while, such as scratches. This is normal wear and tear that gives your knife character.

Handle made of GFN

The handle of the Gerber Pledge 1067370 Grey, Stainless Black, pocket knife is made of GFN and measures 11.5 cm in length. GFN stands for 'Glass-Filled Nylon'.
