Bear Grylls Gerber
by Spook45
Over this past weekend, I had the opertunity to crawl all over the Bear Grylls Gerber survival knife. I was relitively impressed. The knife was as well made as you would expect from Gerber. The design appears to be modeled after the Trident model, it has a hammer type knurled pommel and the blade design is basicly the same as the Gerber LMF II. It has a fire striker on the front of the sheath that is very addiquate. IT has a diamond hone made into the back of the sheath under the belt hanger. It has a wrist throng with a small whistle on the end. The blade also has a cutaway on the back that is used with the striker. At a cost of around $50, this knife is great piece and at that price its a bargain. The only negitive I can find is just a personal pet peave, I dont like the flare orange colors. I realize this knife is marketed to civilians, but I prefer things dark and subdued so as not to give away my position. That can be remidied with some spray paint.
