Is this the newer machete with a serial number on the blade near the handle or the recalled blade?

mine is the newer version. I purchashed it thru Amazon. im pretty sure you won't be able to get the recalled blade thru any supplier or dealer now.

Does the presence of the serial number on the blade mean my machete is not the one "Gerber" recalls due to laceration hazard?

I have one with the number on the blade next to the handle. I don't remember, if the one I bought is the one I currently have. The one I bought through Amazon was recalled because of the sheath, so, I sent it back (maybe it was just the sheath???), and they put some more metal rivets in it or sent me a new sheath??? I had heard that one or more persons had tried to holster the blade upside down and it cut the stitching out of the sheath. Unless there is more than one recall, this is the only one I have heard of. They reinforced the stitched side with the metal rivets, so, you couldn't cut yourself or let the blade drop out and cut your toes off??? I have one with the number on the blade next to the handle.

I don't know but I ordered the same one that was recommended by Amazon so I guess I will be screwed also. Maybe Amazon is just trying to get rid of what they have. Haven't unpacked the saw yet.

It was a gift for a good friend. I don't recall any markings on the blade. It is a very nice heavy duty spatula with the end sharpened for scrapiing or cutting. I can't wait to get some pancakes made over a campfire with it.

I had a Tanaka grass trimmer that was in a recall. I also own a TCS 33EDTP chain saw that I purchased this year, but I am not aware of any recall for it. There were no authorized repair facilities near me, so I sent the grass trimmer to a place in Arkansas for repair. Hitachi Koki does not do the repairs themselves. You might call Erica Wallace at 8008294752 x263 to confirm there is a recall on the chain saws. If so, she should also be able to initiate the paperwork to send you the shipping carton. It will come with a prepaid label. They used FedEx in my area. Please let me know if they also have a recall on their chain saws. regards, r. hagan I had a Tanaka grass trimmer that was in a recall.

I cannot find a model number on the mower. It's a 20" blade. Approximately 4 years old.

I just did a test run of ordering it on Amazon and nothing came up about the item being recalled. I also searched Google and didn't see anything there.

The pictured knife is model no. 655, which is the "short" version with 4 7/8" blade, but the Product Details section lists it as the 650 which has a 6 1/2" blade. I guess only Amazon knows for sure which is accurate, but either the photo or the listed model number has to be wrong.

I just did a search online and there is no mention anywhere of recalls for this chain saw, or any of their chain saws. There is a recall for grass trimmers and pneumatic nailers.

I bought my Kershaw some time back and can't address what they may be using now. Sorry

the little brochure that came with it says in one place that it is but the blade has no such markings

Hi. I'm from Victorinox. There are variations in the mold used by the factory for the handle. The handle is the same though and still made in Switzerland. Could you tell me more about what is different on the blade? They are phasing out the Swiss emblem at the factory, so you will start to see just "Victorinox" on the blade. I believe the item number should still be there too though. Not all 3rd party sellers on amazon are "authorized" sellers, meaning they are not buying their knives directly from us. It is best to buy directly from amazon or an authorized 3rd party seller.

I ordered this knife from Amazon and received the one with the lock bar insert.

Replaces S/N 618-04126, this is the same item, don't order the bolts that hold it on the deck and the nut that holds the blade on, you can get them cheaper at Home Depot.

I ordered mine years ago, (love it) the blade on mine is 19 in and came in a cardboard sleeve .... Not sure if they changed this by now. . . Really impressed with this cold steel katana machete

I don't think this model had a recall. Serial number is July 14 11806 It's working fine

My husband says his is the old one. But, I bought it last year, before the recall, though. You should contact Gerber to see if they've switched it. I'm sorry I couldn't help!

Hi, not sure but based on other knives it appears to be a model number. Randi
