Gerber Applegate-Fairbairn Mini Covert Automatic Folding Knife — 2.8" S30V Black Combo Blade (Model #30-000244)

Get into one of the most sought-after compact tactical automatic knives ever made at open box savings. The Gerber Applegate-Fairbairn Mini Covert Auto is a discontinued, USA-made automatic folder that delivers all the iconic design and premium materials of the full-size Covert in a smaller, lighter, more discreet everyday carry package — and this open box example is in excellent, uncarried condition.

A Legendary Combat Heritage in a Compact Package

The Mini Covert Automatic is the perfect example of a small tactical auto with every day carry abilities — light, strong, and discreet. This is an Applegate-Fairbairn design with a black finished S30V spear-point blade and a partially serrated edge. The blade carries the laser-etched signatures of Colonel Rex Applegate and William E. Fairbairn — two of the most decorated close-quarters combat specialists in military history and the design inspirations behind the entire Covert family.

Instant One-Hand Automatic Deployment

A satin firing button fires the blade open with great force BladeOps at the press of a single button. A front-mounted slide safety locks the blade in both the open and closed positions, with a red dot indicator visible when the knife is live and ready. The oversized release button is designed for fast deployment even with gloved hands.

Premium CPM-S30V Blade Steel

The black blade is made of S30V steel in the USA, signed by Rex Applegate and W.E. Fairbairn, with a 2.75" blade length and overall length of 6.5". The black oxide non-reflective coating keeps the knife low-profile and corrosion-resistant, while the partial serrations add versatile cutting capability for both utility and tactical tasks.

Aircraft-Grade Aluminum Handle — Ultralight Carry

The handle features hard anodized aluminum with a thin profile and semi-open frame construction that make it a comfortable carry knife. The entire knife weighs just 2.1 oz light enough that you barely notice it in your pocket.

Discreet Deep Carry

A removable tip-down deep carry pocket clip keeps the knife secure and virtually invisible in the pocket, making the Mini Covert one of the most concealable automatic knives in its class.

Discontinued — Harder to Find Every Year

This item has been discontinued by Gerber. Open box and lightly used examples are increasingly difficult to source, making this an ideal opportunity for collectors and EDC enthusiasts alike.
