My first survival knife.....Gerber LMF II

[M9Hoosier]

I have always been used to sub par quality knives (flea market type pocket knifes, etc), so when i purchased this Gerber LMF II, I was blown away by the craftsmanship and quality. A little heavier than expected but seems very tough. As a far as a review, I haven't been in the woods or camping but when I do expect a full review. Here are some pics and videos.

Where did you buy your Gerber at?

These are very solid! They can be used as a hammer and have a point on the grip end. More of a survival knife, the point is intended to break things such as a wind shield. This even can with a quickie knife to cut cordage or things such as seat belts.

It come with a hard sheath that has a basic sharpener built into it and it ready to carry. I used mine tons until some assbag decided he needed it more than I did and stole it.

A bring-back AK-bayo as Survival-knife

It has worked for me for years, but I am almost ashamed to admit that it has cut a few nails and Bobb-wahr in those years. I REALLY would like some pro advice on how to sharpen this ChiCom steel. My table-top sharpeners and whet-stones don' touch this steel. Any suggestions, PM me please. Thanks

I've got one of these that I love. It's big and heavy, but perfect for what it's designed to be.

I had heard very good things about this knife, and almost bought one, but eventually I decided on a Rat Cutlery Rat-4. Seems like a very good knife though.
