Gerber recalls Uppercut knife and sheath sets due to risk of knife slipping out unexpectedly, causing lacerations. Consumers should store safely and return for free replacement sheath.
The Uppercut sheath does not hold the knife securely, allowing the knife to come out of the sheath unexpectedly, posing a laceration hazard.
Gerber is recalling Uppercut knife and sheath sets because the sheath can unexpectedly release the knife, leading to cuts. This hazard affects owners who store the knife in places children could access.
The sheath does not hold the knife securely, so the knife can come out of the sheath unexpectedly. This can cause cuts if the knife slips and strikes a person.
Owners of Gerber Uppercut knife and sheath sets are affected. Children who could reach the knife are at higher risk of injury.
Look for sets with a black nylon sheath, engraved Gerber logo, and a model number on the box (30-000650) or packaging (31-001727).
Immediately place the knife in a safe area out of children's reach.
