Gerber Center-Drive Plus multitool, leather case and bit set

Gerber Center-Drive Plus

The Gerber Center-Drive Plus distinguishes itself by a few important differences. For example, the serrated blade has been replaced by spring-loaded scissors. In addition, the large blade is equipped with a partially serrated edge. The Center Drive Plus also comes with a leather sheath.

Screwdriver with liner lock

The Gerber Center-Drive is the first multi-tool with a full-fledged screwdriver on the center shaft and a standard bit. The magnetic bit is replaceable and comes with a Phillips and flat bit. One bit is stored on the screwdriver and the other in the bit holder. But you can also exchange the bit for one you already have. All standard sizes fit, without an extension! Unwanted folding of the screwdriver is prevented by the liner lock. Because the pawl falls behind the hinged part of the screwdriver, the screwdriver can no longer hinge back to the closed position. This is only possible when the pawl is pushed out of the way of the hinged part by the user.

Pliers, one-handed opening

Another important tool of the Gerber Center-Drive is the pliers. One-handed opening and closing thanks to the sliding mechanism. The spring automatically opens the pliers, unlike most multi-tools where you have to open the pliers manually. The wire cutter can also be replaced when it is blunt.

Full blade, one-handed opening, liner lock

The large drop point knife is made of 420HC steel. A very high-quality type of steel. The blade is razor-sharp and has a cutting edge of no less than 7.5 centimeters, part of which is serrated. A lot larger than most multi-tool knives. Once unfolded, the knife falls directly into the liner-lock lock and there is no play anywhere. This means that it can never fold in unintentionally and is suitable for the heavier jobs. When opening and closing the blade, you hear a familiar click.
