SRM Gent 401LC-GB – 3.27" Brushed 10Cr15CoMoV Drop Point Pocket Knife
The SRM Gent 401LC-GB is a slim, gentleman's-style EDC folder built around a 3.27" brushed 10Cr15CoMoV drop point blade set in black G10 scales. An invisible flipper tab and a steel ball bearing pivot give it smooth one-handed deployment without interrupting the knife's clean, minimalist lines, while a sturdy liner lock holds the blade open. At 2.19 oz and 7.52" overall, it disappears in a pocket.
The reversible Ambi clip can be moved from one side of the handle to the other without additional tools, so left- and right-handed carry are both covered out of the box. SRM finishes the edge with a cooled sharpening process that keeps the blade's heat treat intact for a sharper, longer-lasting edge.
If you are shopping for a slim EDC pocket knife, a gentleman's folding knife, or a lightweight liner lock pocket knife, the SRM Gent 401LC-GB covers all three.

Frequently Asked Questions
What blade steel does the SRM Gent 401LC-GB use?
The SRM Gent 401LC-GB uses 10Cr15CoMoV stainless steel hardened to HRC 58–60. It is a cobalt- and molybdenum-enhanced stainless comparable to VG-10, so the SRM Gent 401LC-GB balances good edge retention with strong corrosion resistance and easy resharpening.
How long is the blade on the SRM Gent 401LC-GB?
The SRM Gent 401LC-GB has a 3.27" (83 mm) drop point blade, 0.10" (2.5 mm) thick, and measures 7.52" (191 mm) overall when open. That keeps the SRM Gent 401LC-GB legal to carry in most US jurisdictions, though blade-length laws vary by state and city, so check your local rules.
What lock does the SRM Gent 401LC-GB use, and how do you close it?
The SRM Gent 401LC-GB uses a liner lock. To close it, push the lock bar sideways toward the handle scale to clear the blade tang, then fold the blade down with your fingers clear of the edge path. Keeping your fingers off the closing path is the safest habit with the SRM Gent 401LC-GB or any liner lock folder.
Can you move the pocket clip on the SRM Gent 401LC-GB?
Yes. The SRM Gent 401LC-GB ships with SRM's reversible Ambi clip, which can be removed and reinstalled on the opposite handle scale without additional tools. That makes the SRM Gent 401LC-GB equally comfortable for left- and right-handed carry.
Is the SRM Gent 401LC-GB a good EDC pocket knife?
Yes. At 2.19 oz with a slim, snag-free profile, the SRM Gent 401LC-GB is built for daily pocket carry — opening mail and packages, breaking down boxes, food prep and general utility cutting. The minimalist styling of the SRM Gent 401LC-GB also keeps it discreet in an office or dress-casual setting.
How do you sharpen the SRM Gent 401LC-GB?
Wipe the blade clean, then work a wet whetstone at a steady 15° per side, 10–20 passes from heel to tip, and repeat on the opposite side before finishing on the fine grit. The 10Cr15CoMoV steel in the SRM Gent 401LC-GB takes an edge readily on standard stones or a guided system.
Where can I buy the SRM Gent 401LC-GB?
