![]() They claim the military connection for each of the 19 variations. One way to narrow down which versions are the ‘official’ ones is to look at which ones are supplied with a Berry Compliant sheath. By my count, there are 19, yes 19, variations of the MP600 you can buy and Gerber don’t specify exactly which of the 19 variations is the one they supply to the military. Gerber proudly announces they are the number one supplier of multi-tools to the military with their Multi-Plier 600. ![]() Really useful when you’re hunkered down with a gun in one hand and want to deploy your pliers with the other. Push a button on the side and slide the pliers away. With a little practice, you can flick your wrist and the pliers snap and lock into position. The key feature of all the Gerber MP600‘s is that it has one hand opening pliers. What makes it particularly useful for the military is that the MP600 comes in a lot of different configurations – blunt nose pliers, needle nose pliers or blasting cap crimper pliers, replaceable or non-replaceable wire cutters, blade or bladeless, sight tool or RemGrit saw. The current multi-tool of choice for the US military is the Gerber Multi-Plier 600 platform. That got me thinking….if a multi-tool is good enough for soldiers, wouldn’t it be good to know exactly what multi-tools the military use? And can I come up with a better multi-tool than the ones they use? I mean, it can be like a battlefield out in the suburbs but it’s still not Afghanistan is it? But my guess would be that our soldiers give their multi-tools an even harder time than I do. I don’t know about you, but I can put my multi-tools through a lot of tough torture tests when I’m doing my MacGyver thing.
