i just received my order yesterday but have not opened the box because the model pictured on amazon is not the exact model they are shipping out. look at the handle bars, the seat, and the breaking mechanism. these are all different. seems like they are shipping out an older version of the same model. I contacted customer service and told them to change the picture yesterday but no change yet. they did reply quickly and told me i could return it as they do not have the model pictured. my first real bad experience with amazon, not cool.

I ordered this knife from Amazon and received the one with the lock bar insert.

At this price point, it has to be the old model. Several upgrades and redesigns to both the knife & sheath drove the price of the new model into the $70 range.

i hear they all ship with plain blades since last year. A few people have put that in the reviews that it is in fact a plain blade . SOG stopped shipping then in 2012. Its a great knife . I also like the ZT 170 there are some deals out there for 100 shipped. check it out.

Got it about 3 years ago as a gift for my husband. He considers it a dress knife and does not carry it every day but does carry it frequently. Still looks like new condition. Also, had it engraved and that looks new too. Hope that helps. A-

It's being sold by a marketplace dealer, but the stock is being stored and shipped by Amazon. I've bought plenty of high-end knives through Amazon, and never had a problem. The specs are all correct, the model numbers are right, and the price is about where you'd expect; I purchased mine through Amazon.ca, but I'd have no concerns about buying it here. In the slight chance there is a problem, you can always send it back for a full refund.

The one I received has the newer rough finish. It is a well made knife and case I carry it every day.

IMO, if any parts are missing on delivery, your knife is defective. I suggest that you call the seller and see if you can return it for exchange it or refund or call S & W and see what they might do for you as their products have a great reputation and I doubt they want unhappy customers. Good luck.

While I am surprised there are still originals available, I do believe the Gerber Command II's from the Amazon site are real. These knives were very expensive when first released. For this reason and possibly others such as a recovering economy, poor marketing strategy, or who knows why, they obviously didn't sell very well. What I do know for sure is that my knife is the real deal. And it was bought recently from this Amazon site. Once again, this is one awesome knife. Your're not going to find this knife for some ridiculously low price. And if you do it will be fake. Like the ones for $55.55 on some Chinese site with over 5,000 in stock. If it sounds to good to be true, well you know the rest. While I am surprised there are still originals available, I do believe the Gerber Command II's from the Amazon site are real.

I assume you're talking about the ACB-90, which was the knife for premium users?That one is here, but it looks like it's out of stock.: United Cutlery United M48 Kommando Survivor Knife

I found that Ka-Bar knife is not as sharp as Gerber. Regardless of where they made, if the quality of the product don't deliver then you lose customers. I don't mind to pay a little extra more if the product uphold the quality.

Same here. Purchased 7 months ago (Apr 1, 2014), and still no knife. This is the worst experience I've ever had with Amazon.

I treat my knives very carefully and haven't had that problem. This one is new, but I bought it as a replacement for one that was 15 years old, not because it wasn't like new, but because someone who shall remain nameless (husband) accidentally threw it away.

I just purchased the knife 1/10/13 and it is the gen2 model. Amazon should update the title so customers aren't confused.

I haven't seen a model number but it is the Nakiiri 7" Classic. I think it also comes in the Gourmet model that is cheaper. The Classic has a MSRP for $135 but can be bought for $80 online. The beauty of this knife is that the front of the blade is tall and provides a hedge against cutting your finger because the blade slides against your curled left index finger as you cut the vegetable if you are right handed. I often use it for meats as well as vegetables.
