Overview

The Silver Trident is a Gerber Knife that is used by special operation forces of the United States Armed Forces.  What differentiates the Silver Trident from other knives is it's unique handle.  It was specially crafted by Gerber to be heat resistant, UV resistant and chemical resistant.  The handle is a co-mold of two versions of the material called Hytrel®. Inside, there's a rock-hard version for strength. Outside, there's the soft, textured version for extreme grip control. Use the stainless steel butt cap as a hammer The double-edged clip point blade is 154C stainless steel, heat-treated to achieve a hardness rating of HRC 59-61. You get excellent edge retention, strength and flexibility. The non-reflective black blade limits glare and corrosion.  The center of balance on the knife is just behind the hand guard so the knife balances on holders first finger when held in a fighting grip. The pommel is solid and the handle is comfortable and nonslip.

The great part about Gerber's Silver Trident is that it has all the bells and whistles that a knife should have. These include the advanced handle, excellent blade strength and the double serrated edge.  The hand guard just above the handle feels comforatble in your hand even with padded gloves on.  The hand guard provides an added level of security while handling the knife and this allows you to use the knife with better comfort. The knife also comes with an advanced nylon and plastic sheath where the knife can slip in and out with ease.  You will be impressed by the knife as soon as you have it in yhour hand.  Expect this knife to replace your trustiest knife.  Don't take my word for it, get out and use it yourself.
