Gerber I’d please

In 1939 Joseph Gerber (advertising agency owner) had custom knife maker David Murphy make 24 sets of carving knife for some of his select customers. Catalog retailer Abercrombie & Fitch saw them and was so impressed with the quality of the knives they wanted to sell them. Thus was born Gerber Legendary Blades.

Hi and ::welcome:: to AAPK.
You might find your answer or at least part of your answer here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=64354

These 2 are mine that I received from Pacific Bell. The one with the emblem & gemstones (bottom picture) was for my service anniversary and the other one was for perfect attendance. They were both awarded to me in the 1984-1985 time span. I've seen quite a few of these Gerbers that were awards/gifts for various milestones from different companies.
