## Description

Product Description Product Description These clever carbide cutter insert replacements are a part of the impressive Gerber multi-plier family, a series of one-handed opening multi-tools popularized in great part because of the easy-access one-hand opening feature. Specific models of the Gerber multi-tool series feature the Tungsten Carbide cutting insert. Once dull, the three-sided blade insert can be rotated 120 degrees, for a total of three rotations. The replacement inserts fit select models of the MP Basic, the MP Pro-Scout, and the MP Legend. Since 1939, Gerber has been an outdoor industry leader dedicated to making problem-solving tools for the men and women who carry our gear. Quality, craftsmanship, and customer needs drive every decision and design made in Portland, Oregon. From EDC pocket knives, fixed blade knives, and multi-tools to hatchets, shovels, and camp kitchen cookware - Gerber has every tool you might need; designed with the unique needs of specific activities in mind. From the Manufacturer Selected models of the Gerber tool line feature an extremely rugged tungsten carbide cutting insert. This triangular insert is particularly good for cutting wire or fishhooks, or other similar materials.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these flat like the normal ones that are on the the multitool when you buy it? Or are they sharp like the ones in the picture?**
A: Don't know what you mean by flat, I replaced my set and they fit well. I can cut coat hanger wire easily, multi strain electrical wire needs a few squeezes to cut. I will buy another set if and when I need to replace again.

**Q: When Will you have replacement carbide cutters 12152021?**
A: I am not Amazon, but I’d like to tell you what I did. While cutting a clothes hanger the blades broke. I ordered more and replaced the old ones. Then I sent the company a critical message, telling them I didn’t want a child’s toy for a work tool, if I do I would’ve bought a toy.  I told them whom ever the guy was that came up with the idea of the blades should no longer be on the payroll and that I wouldn’t be buying any more. They said I would hear back. Haven’t heard a word. I bought a Gerber tool and cut anything I want to.

**Q: Ad says its hex head, it's not. It's torx tip. any idea what size?**
A: It is a torx, it comes with a bent wrench. I have a old wrench but there is no size on it. I'm guessing a T8?

**Q: What does it mean when limited warranty?**
A: Gerber provides a limited lifetime warranty in North America. Here is the warranty information: https://www.gerbergear.com/Meet-Gerber/Customer-Care/Warranty

Great product, BUT always remember that these carbide cutter blades are very brittle and will shatter when over forced to cut what they are not designed to cut.
