Description: 1985 Gerber Blackie Collins Design River Master w/Black Zytel Made Italy, Discontinued (Serrated)Blade Length: 3.5"Overall Length: 7.85"Blade Thickness: .175"Blade Width: 1.1"Blade Metal: Stainless SteelWeight: 3.85 ounces 4.9 ounces with sheathIn 1985, Blade Magazine awarded Gerber Legendary Blades the Overall Knife of the Year for its Clip-Lock knife. Designed by Blackie Collins the Clip-Lock is a one-piece knife with a spring lock that provides quick and easy release from its sturdy Zytel sheath. It is designed for emergencies especially in white water, where quick action can mean life or death. This single edge blade has both a serrated and plain combination.There are River Masters that were made in Portland, and those that were made in Italy. This is one of the scarrcer Italian made models. Same knife, just different countries of production and obviously the ones made in Portland are more common to find in the US than the Italian ones. This one has a Serrated type top edge for a dagger. I also have another one with a plain edge. This knife is in Excellent condition, with minor signs of wear from sheath and handling. See pictures to make your own assessment, but I doubt you will be disappointed in this knife's condition. Comes with a hardshell Black Zytel sheath, with built in clip lock that keeps the knife securely in place when diving, boating, hiking etc. Once piece construction with a very fine V-Ground Edge. This retains the factory edge and I don't believe this has ever been used, but probably only handled/carried. This is from a private collection and pre-owned so I will be listing this as used and in "as-is" condition. This listing is only for the knife and sheath. Thre is No paperwork or box included.
