All About Pocket Knives

I discovered this Gerber Paul knife today in the collection I inherited from my father. I love it. Anyone have an idea of it's age? 1980s? 1990s?

That is a nice knife. You're fortunate to have your fathers knife.

There is one in "Gerber legendary blades knife forum".

I believe yours is a 1st model. It has the small adjusting screw that sets the blade stop. Because it kept falling out if you turned it, they eliminated it on the 2nd model.
. Look inside the blade well & you should see the number 1.

Very nice to have the box with that one. I have an ivory micarta handled one, but not box. Levine says these were made between 1977 and 1986.

Must be my knife then

Here is mine. Bought new in 77.

That's a beauty, Knut. Love the ivory micarta scales.
