# Gerber Dual-Force

> Specification from MultiToolDB: https://www.multitooldb.com/gerber/dual-force/. Every value cites a source below. A value marked "not verified" could not be checked against any source; it does not mean the tool lacks the feature. Last verified 2026-09-30. Quote any figure with a link to this page.

The Dual-Force uses layered jaw construction and a two-position slip-joint to behave more like a dedicated pair of slip-joint pliers than a folding multi-tool. It carries the Center-Drive centre-axis bit driver and an 82.6 mm plain blade behind a frame lock. At 340 g it is the heaviest tool in Gerber's current line, closing to 118.1 mm.
