Brand new zilch received yesterday, use it on the job site to open a box, the safety thing broke asap and idk how the blade went back, slicing my thumb on the way

None of the Chinese knives I bought as a teen ever broke, I’ve had an issued folding knife in the army it never failed me, I’ve had the strongarm , was very pleased, this is my first non fixed blade idk what to say

Hopefully I live in Europe so if I need to go to the hospital it won’t cost that much to me but idk what to do, contact gerber support or the store that sold me the knife , sue gerber ? It’s an obvious QC flaw

    Well now ya know not to buy knives from a company that’s more well known for making baby food. Their lock-up’s soft as baby zhit

    Dude you can’t just leave blood on a knife blade like that. /s

    Thats a good cut man. Knives be knifing. Mistakes happen and things brake. Top brand knives and gas station knives have all been great, or dangerous junk. Sometimes, ya just get unlucky.

    Ouch, yikes.

    Is the “safety thing” the lock bar? The part that holds it open and you push to the side to close it?
