Gerber’s mini GDC Zip Blade drops to just over $8 today at Amazon (35% off)

Reg. $13/$8

Amazon is offering the Gerber GDC Zip Blade for $8.34 after you clip the on-page coupon. Shipping is free for Prime members or in orders over $25. Regularly $13, like it still fetches at Walmart, today’s offer is more than 35% off, the lowest we have tracked on Amazon in over a year and the best we can find. This stainless steel blade measures out at 0.68 of an inch (2.26-inches total) and features a frame lock safety function, a built-in fob zipper attachment to integrate it into your everyday carry, and a “quick-removal” clip. Whether you’re opening packages or out in the wilderness, this is one utility knife deal worth a closer look. Rated 4+ stars from over 1,000 Amazon customers. More details below.

Now if carrying a knife around in your pocket is overkill for your personal needs, it might be worth considering a small keychain-sized multi-tool. The Gerber Shard Tool is a great example at just over $5. It will almost certainly come through in a pinch at some point with its small and medium flat driver, Philips head driver, wire stripper, pry bar, bottle opener, and lanyard hole. It is also “airline-safe,” according to Gerber.

Having said that, today’s miniature zipper option from Gerber is particularly ideal for those not looking to keep a big pocket knife on their person. But be sure to swing by our multi-tool roundup for more of the best options out there from just $5.
