Designed with a modern take on classic hunting knives, it offers the perfect blend of functionality and style, making it an essential companion for skinning, caping, and fine-detail work. Proudly made in the USA, this knife embodies Gerber’s commitment to quality craftsmanship and rugged dependability.
At the core of the Downwind is a razor-sharp 3.25” 7Cr17MoV stainless steel caper blade, designed to handle the most intricate cutting tasks with ease. Whether you’re field dressing game or preparing camp essentials, the satin-finished blade provides excellent corrosion resistance and a sharp, controlled edge. The hidden tang construction ensures a sturdy build, giving you confidence in its durability without adding unnecessary weight. With an overall length of 7.24” and a lightweight 2.1-ounce design, it’s easy to maneuver, making precise cuts simple and efficient.
The black and gray G-10 handle offers a secure and comfortable grip, even in wet or slippery conditions. Engineered for durability, G-10 provides excellent resistance to moisture, impact, and temperature changes, ensuring reliable performance in any environment. The ergonomic handle shape fits naturally in hand, reducing fatigue during extended use. A built-in lanyard hole adds versatility, allowing you to customize your carry setup or secure the knife for quick access when needed.
Carrying the Downwind is just as practical as using it. The knife comes with a gray canvas sheath featuring a belt loop, ensuring a secure and comfortable carry option. The rugged sheath protects the blade while keeping it easily accessible for when the moment calls. Whether attached to your belt or tucked into your pack, it’s designed for convenience and quick deployment.
