PARAFRAME MINI TANTO

Modeled on the popular Paraframe design that earned its larger siblings praise, the Gerber Mini Paraframe Tanto offers the same familiar details on a small scale for a discreet carry. At 1.5 ounces, there’s no reason not to add it to your daily routine.

The 2-inch blade is all fine edge, and the tanto point is every bit as sharp as that of a larger knife. Speaking to its decades of history crafting knives, Gerber gives this knife the same attention to detail found on the larger versions, including an ergonomic metal handle and frame lock design. The result is a small knife with confident blade engagement and a balanced feel.

Keys? Check. Wallet? Check. Tactical knife? Check. At a mere 1.5 ounces, there’s no reason not to include the Gerber Mini Paraframe Tanto on your daily checklist. Answering the call for a minimalist tactical blade, this small knife is a simple but effective tool.

Paraframe DNA

Lighter than a set of car keys, this small knife comes from the same drawing board as its larger Paraframe siblings and gives new meaning to the term “traveling light.” The fine edge blade and tanto point are small but remain effective for a wide array of daily needs, from slicing through stubborn rope to opening a cardboard box.

Small Details

Don’t let the 3-inch folded size of the Mini fool you; Gerber gives this little guy the same attention to detail that has won the larger Paraframe models a dedicated following. You’ll notice the same ergonomic metal handle and frame lock design, and it delivers the same positive blade engagement and balanced feel, even at this size.
