Gerber Sakai Silver Knight w/no model #

Post by knivesancient011 »

Hi, I'm trying to get info about a Gerber Portland Silver Knight Sakai Japan mother of pearl 3 1/4in knife my uncle had. It has no model number on the tang.. The Gerber side simply says Gerber Portland, OR. It has a locking blade (lock back?) And seems to have silver in the handle, albeit tarnished. Is there a way to authenticae it or has anyone heard of this knife not having model #? I don't have any papers or box/packaging.

You said the knife measures 3-1/4". If you were referring to the closed length I'd say the model is a 250A Pearl.
