Gerber USA 300 lockback

In 1939 Joseph Gerber (advertising agency owner) had custom knife maker David Murphy make 24 sets of carving knife for some of his select customers. Catalog retailer Abercrombie & Fitch saw them and was so impressed with the quality of the knives they wanted to sell them. Thus was born Gerber Legendary Blades.

I thought 400- I have a clip and drop point model, the older came with a plastic pocket clip for that hole.
Seems high quality, sharp and nice and light!
I believe it's called LST
So many knives, too little time...
