Tools and Hardware Reviews of Gerber 22-01629 LMF II Black Infantry Knife with 4.8-Inch BladeCustomer Review: Excellent Knife Summary: 5 Stars
I will begin with the negative point: the blade finish isn't invulnerable, and rubs thin at some high points from just inserting and removing the knife from its sheath. That's it. That's all. The only negative aspect of this knife. Who cares? No blade finish is going to stay perfect forever on any knife, and it doesn't negatively impact performance.
The high points? Here they are: great blade geometry, flawless handle, good steel, good edge from the factory, good edge retention, amazing sheath (comfort, versatility, knife retention), totally reasonable price, nice balance/weight, and Gerber quality.
If you're considering this knife, just stop thinking about it and buy. You will not be disappointed.
Customer Review: 77 "ubt" is an idiot Summary: 5 Stars
First of all, I own this knife. It's a nice well made knife, and for the money it's a great value. If you want a better knife be prepared to bust out the checkbook! Secondly, 77"ubt". What kind of review was that? Learn to speak some English and form a proper sentance and then maybe your review will at least make sense. I doubt it will be much better though. If you couldn't break a glass window with the pommel of this knife you are either 6 years old, or completely worthless. And anyone complaining about how much pressure it takes to remove the knife from it's sheath better hope they never find themselves in a survival situation anyway! This is a great knife, and for under 100 bucks it's an incredible value. Period.
Customer Review: Perfect Survival/Camping/Outdoor Knife Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great knife and has no problems that I have found. It is extremely well-made, something that you can get simply by holding the knife. You can tell it is high quality, well-balanced, and going to do everything that Gerber claims it can.
Has been put to test and has performed wonderfully. Knife sharpener in sheath is easy to use, although no instructions were included (all you do is stick it in and withdraw at a slight angle. you will hear and feel it sharpening).
If spending anytime camping or in an outdoor environment, you can't go wrong with having this knife. More expensive than many others, but well worth it as it will last a long time and perform better throughout its life.
Customer Review: Great substitute for the jaws of life. Summary: 5 Stars
I work as a police officer and responded to a crash on a major highway. The car had overturned and the driver was trapped inside. EMS hadn't arrived and we needed to get inside to the driver. I ran back to my patrol car and got my LMF II, figuring that if it could cut an airplane fuselage and helicopter canopy and all the stuff it advertises, then I might as well give it a try. I jammed the knife as hard as I could in between the door and the frame and kicked the handle as hard as I could. Pop, it opened the door. And the knife had absolutely no marks, dings, scratches or other signs of abuse.
This is a great knife.
Customer Review: One of gerbers best Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of Gerber's best knives.Buy one now because Gerber has a history of dis-continuing some of their best knives.
This knife is a great value considering that it is as good a knife as the Trident series which cost much more.The only shortcoming of this knife is the sheath,It's for a molle' vest and does not carry well for most.Some may see this as a plus, the constuction and material is first rate. The knife fits well in your hand,has a stout well shaped blade.The chisel point on the end of the handle is functional, but I wouldn't count on the hammer funtion,the flat is just too small.
