Review of Gerber 05848 AR 3.0 Fine Edge Knife, Black Blade

I had one of these knives for about 5 years before I lost it.I used to think Gerber made the best knives around but when I replaced my old Gerber knife with one of these I discovered that Gerber was no longer made in the U.S.A. They are now made in Taiwan and the quality has greatly suffered.My old knife would hold a edge very well.This knife will not (a problem I've had with another made in Taiwan Gerber knife I bought).The black teflon coating on the blade wore off rather quickly and the round end on the thumb stud fell out.On the plus side it did last me 5 years and I'm pretty hard on knives.If you want my recomedation skip this knife and buy a Kershaw.Kershaw is made in the U.S.A. and the one I carry now seems to hold an edge very well.
