Reply to comment by Arcade80sbillsfan in 10 year old Gerber Dime broke. Gerber replaced it no questions asked. by Kalashnikov_n_Knife

Gerber knives are incredibly solid.

They need to be resharpened fairly often, but the durability and their customer service is S tier.

They also make a ton of stuff in China that is very low quality compared with the same items they used to make in the US. Their warranty is great but their made in China knives as junk.

S tier is above A tier. It's common in gaming

One-up-manship. Special rank is above merely A rank.

S-ranks are actually a feature of Japanese academic grading, being their equivalent to an A+. Hence, Japanese games used that scale for their own grading, and thus the practice followed them across the pond.

Some games even have SS, SSS, or X ranks to denote extra super special ones.
