The Gerber Dime I just received has no blade on the retail package opener, is that normal?

Contact Gerber and show them that there is no blade. Or, you could sharpen it yourself..

The retail package opener should have a section about 1/4th inch long at the very end that is sharpened to an edge to make it work like a hook blade. It is used for opening plastic clamshell packaging.

NOt sure what you mean by retail package opener. But mine looks exactily like the picture and has a blade.

Mine came with a sliced blade and I did not want to return it so I bought a replacement blade from Amazon/Ettore. Had to trim, but just fine and not expensive.

I guess that depends on what you have to open the package with and if you bought it at a place like costco. You need a chain saw to open packages there. This device came in a hassle free package and had no issues.

I suppose that this is the new model. I got it in the fall last year. Its a Gerber knife. Not serrated, drop point, full tang. I has a very nice grip. Sheath is ambidexterous, I like it....no worries....

Mine came with the kydex sheath & a crappy belt clip, that looks like the whole sheath would pop off your belt if you ever squatted down. I am looking for a suitable replacement [kinda chaps my butt that I have to spend more money to make sure I don't lose an obviously high quality knife. Should come with at least a belt loop.].

I recieved the chuck key and the side handle. I did not receive a carry bag. Everything looked as though it was brand new.

My 07520 came boxed with a standard black sheath with Gerber logo and name embroidered in grey. Answered by Peter L. on 7 January 2014.

Hi, I thought there was only the one made, I have searched to see if any others and I can't locate another model. The one the was shipped to me is authentic and a great tool and very versatile for its compact size. Haven't spent enough time with it to see its durability, but if it's like all the other gerber gear I have, I'm sure it will take a beating. Thank out for your question, if anything I can do, feel free. Regards, ken

I don't think you'll be getting an actual blade here in amazon, unless you get a kitchen knife that is

no idea but i do believe that Gerber has lifetime guarantee so get in touch with them. Keep me informed.

not the one i have,,, it is a standard three blade pocket knife... you force the blade open and it is usable.... the blade neither lacks open nor needs to be unlocke to close....

Same thing happened to me. I called Victorinox and they unconvincingly told me it is the same knife just with a different SKU#. I am a little upset because I bought the 47520 because it had German Forschner blade and here it shows up with a Swiss blade and no Forschner logo. Not sure how I am going to proceed. Have you used yours yet? What do you think?Victorinox 47520 Fibrox 8-Inch Chef's Knife

Honestly, I think it's the same knife from different sellers. The picture looks the exact same. In any case, it's a pretty good knife, a little tight to open, but that's better than too loose. I don't think Gerber offers the same style knife in different steel qualities. I bought the one certified by Amazon just in case it was wrong and I had to return it. That's usually the safest bet. Good luck!

I had the same question and worry. I finnaly ordered and got the plain. I think the don't make the force serrated anymore but I could be wrong.

Nope, once opened the packaging is disposable and the blade exposed. You just need to find a safe place to store it :-) It's a greeeaaat knife!

If you go back to Amazon to the site ad for your product & click on the picture it will bring up an information box that should answer you questions. The product I purchased was a similar Gerber (22-01463) & I can highly recommend it! That particular knife goes with me camping & is kept in my Go Bag. Hope this helps. Amazon is an excellent company to do business with. If for any reason you're not happy with your purchase, they take returns. Be safe out there. Alan

I bought one from them, it shipped fast and didnt have any problems with it. Good knife but if i had to buy another one it woukd be the one without the double ...opener flick things at the bottom of the blade. Its too wide and scratches your hand when you put it in your pocket.
