The drop point blade is 12c27 stainless steel, 4.84 inches long and painted black. A lot of survival knives have been put to the test in Iraq & afghanistan over the past few years, the Gerber LMF II is one of them. It has been highly praised by members of the military. Soldiers who tested it, didnt want to give it back. The "Skullcrusher" butt of the LMF II is designed for breaking plexiglass and glass on the way out of your downed helicopter. It also adds another business end to the knife in a hand to hand situation, as the name suggests. The blade is designed to cut through an aircraft fuselage...in case thats a requirement you might have.  The Knife is available in 2
versions, "ASEK" which comes with the safety knife
shown below, and the "Infantry" which does not.
