Review Summary
Designed by the late Colonel Rex Applegate, one of the top authorities on close-quarters combat, the Gerber Applegate-Fairbairn Covert is a lasting symbol of the colonel's dedication, expertise and sense of purpose. The best-in-class Covert folding tactical knife offers unmatched strength, durability and balance. The 3.78-inch double bevel blade is made of high carbon stainless steel with titanium nitride coating and it's complemented by a glass-filled nylon handle for a good grip under any condition. It also features the patented Roto-Lock, which ensure that the knife remains locked open without any chance of accidental closure or collapse. The Covert has an overall length of 8.7 inches and it closes down to 4.92 inches. It weighs just 4.2 ounces.
