Hey guys - I've been gone a while, but picked up one of these in my travels:

Its a Gerber 06 Automatic - I've never been real big on switchblades before - Benchmade Strykers never really did it for me - but I handled one of these that one of our E7's has in my Guard unit, and just had to have one! They're USA made, S30V steel, steel lined aluminum handles, safety to lock closed or open, huge release button, solid lockup - 100% perfect IMO other than the fact that they don't make it in plain edge. Anyone else had a chance to check one of these out?

I'd been relatively unimpressed with Gerber lately - the LMF II started to change my mind, and this 06 has made me love the company again. They really need to make this in a "spring assist" version that the "regular dude" can carry (in most states). I need to move to AZ where the knife laws are reasonable!!!
