The physical design of the Gerber 06 Auto helps to overcome this potential pitfall though. On the other hand, there’s also a G10 handle option for those that really need the extra security, but only with the Tanto blade. Gerber 06 Auto Design. My Gerber 06 Auto came with a drop point blade. As I hinted at above, a Tanto style is also available.

Blade deployment is slow implying a weak spring for the size of the blade. Press the button with assertiveness to get an almost appropriate blade response. Gerber seems to have an aversion to selling/supporting these knives to lowly simpleton civilians such as myself. This reminds me of how H&K does not seem to appreciate the lowly and untouchable civilian. The knive is nice enough that I will keep it... but just barely. If I opt to get another auto, I will go with a another spyderco. Blade deployment is outstanding. The gerber will most likely turn into a safe queen.

Everything about this knife is outstanding, except the blade deploys veeerrrrrryyyyyy slowly. Reviews warned me but Gerber puts out such great products that I didn’t believe them. Hoping it improves as it gets broken in. Still, really disappointed.

I read several reviews before ordering and was a little leery of ordering, but glad I did. It is a heavy duty, stand up to anything knife. It had a great edge on it and it opens fine in my opinion. True it's a little slower than some but that is to be expected with such a heavy blade. It has never failed to open or lockup. All around great knife.

This is a great knife, I've carried it on occasion for some time now. This is a beast, very solid, somewhat heavy and it takes abuse. If the action were a little faster, I'd give it a five. The spring is solid but the blade moves fairly slowly... but it is a beefy blade to move.

This knife is a monster, in a good way. It takes abuse like nothing, and the big grip is comfortable for extended use. You'll feel it in your pocket for sure, but that's ok, it earns its keep.

As advertised but...
No belt sheath as advertised. No big deal I guess so, change the listing.
As others have noted, blade deployment is very sluggish.
This is because of the heft - size & weight of the blade.
The Tanto 06 snaps out but is half the heft of this one.
If Gerber put a strong enough spring in this one to snap the blade out the unit would probably jump out of the hand or destroy itself over time.
We're very sorry to hear about the trouble you're having. Have you contacted our customer service department yet (info@bladehq.com)? We'd like to help you get this resolved. Thanks -BHQ

I purchased this knife after i watched the video 'the most prolific automatic knife ever.' when i got the knife i first noticed that it was delivered without the sheath that it was supposed to come with. That was not a big deal to me as I don't use a sheath, but it was frustrating non the less. The real issue was the deployment of the blade. It was AWFUL! The blade would not deploy fully without a firm snap of my wrist. and occasionally it still wouldn't deploy fully even with a snap of the wrist. I was very disappointed with its function. Needless to say i returned it and purchased a spyderco paramilitary 2 instead. I am very pleased with the choice i made to switch knives. I would not recommended the gerber 06 auto.

No power behind opening. More of a flop part way open.
I was told it was do to the desire to be silent in the field when they are opened is why they don't snap open.
Total BS.

This is the 4th or 5th auto knife I've had. After having it for only a couple of days, it's clearly well built, a great size, and has good weight to it.
However, the deployment spring, while it does its job, it feels super weak. The opening action seems like its in slow-motion. As this is/was a military issued knife, I expected some sense of urgency when deploying the blade.
If it wasn't for that issue, it's definitely a 5-star knife.

The gerber 06 auto drop point came in today
it was in pristine condition and will shave hair. This is my second 06 auto my first being a tanto blade. I cant recommend this knife highly enough. Very smooth and well built.. made in the good ol usa
exelent knife for every day carry and self defense.

Had a lot of knives over the years,but this one is the only one I replaced with exact same one. No need for an upgrade, this one is it. Made in America for Americans by Americans. That says it all.

Nice knife ,awesome steel,great design feels real good in my hands, very sturdy feel to it and love the weight. One down side is the spring isn't the snappiest but tends to get better after use. One thing that help the spring was to keep the knife open for a couple days. Another issue is that it doesn't come with a sheath you would think when you are paying this much for a knife it would come with a sheath.

The overall construction of the knife is fantastic. Very rugged and tough. It came razor sharp out of the box. The safety is very positive, with almost no play. The button is very large and prominent, making it very easy to use with different kinds of gloves. The action is not super fast, but somewhat expected with such a hefty blade. This knife is not really meant as an EDC knife due to its size, but is a great option for Law Enforcement personnel.
