Description
The Gerber LMF II Survival Knife features a tan handle and a black combo edge blade. This medium weight knife is designed by Jeff Freeman, a former military man and the knife has been field tested by troops. This knife is as adaptable as the personnel who carry it. Use it to cut through the skin of a fuselage. Or sever a seat belt. Or egress through the Plexiglas of a chopper. Plus, the LMF II does a slick job cutting firewood and building shelter.The over-molded handle successfully limits blistering. There is complete separation between the tang and butt cap, so the knife absorbs the shocks from hammering and prevents the shocks of electricity. Smartly situated grooves and lashing holes let the LMF II convert to a spear. The low-profile sheath facilitates movement, limits noise, works for parachuting, and attaches to a belt or Molle vest. The patented, integrated sharpener means edge retention in the field. Overall Length: 10.59" Blade Length: 4.84" Weight: 24.28 oz. (w/ Sheath) Weight: 11.67 oz.

The Gerber LMF II Infantry knife stands tall among it's peers. This medium sized and medium weight combat knife can double as a survival knife or a great knife on those camping trips. With an overall length of 10.5" it is big enough to do most jobs. The handle is a cut above the competition because it provides a comfotable girp and it also is made of rubber which reduces noice. The butt cap is especially created to give more shock absorption which is very nice when really getting after a heavy job. Fantastic knife made by a reputable and dependable company.
