I had purchased this knife as a birthday present for my friend and I gave it to him the 26, and it broke the 29th. Lets just say I will not be buying from them any more.

I bought this for my husband, but when it came, I kept it for myself.  It is the right weight for me, as a woman and it has a blade that my 3 year old can't open on his own.  And, let me just warn you, it will cut a finger off!!  This knife is very sharp.  That';s not a complaint, just a warning.  I needed this to be sharp and I have used over and over every day and it's still has a great edge on it.

As for the knife I purchased, that seems fine. I purchased it as a gift for my brother, so I'm sure if it's not up to his standards I will leave another review. At this time, the 4 stars are for the assumed quality of the knife.
The only issue I have at this point is in the "gift wrapping" it came in. Very disappointed. I am glad I had it shipped to me instead of directly to him, or I would have been highly embarrassed. The knife is a decent weight and in a box, but that box was just dropped into a decorative paper envelope as its gift wrapping. It was torn on one side, cut on the other and not even sealed closed. The end flap was completely open. There was no padding/stuffing in the envelope to keep it from moving around, no doubt the cause of the tears to the envelope. Basically, it was a crap job. And I had to pay for this?! Won't make that mistake again.

I bought this as a Mother's Day gift for my wife. (No joke.) She was very pleased with it. She will have to spend some time with it getting an edge she will be satisfied with but for her that is a chance to personalize, it to a degree, and part of the charm. The knife itself is a basic solid feeling knife, in my opinion. I read a number of reviews on it and in my limited experience they stand true, so I will refer you to them and not repeat what they had to say here.

This knife is not exactly your heirloom knife that you give to your son / daughter in your final hours, but it sure is great for giving random people as a birthday gift (like your girlfriend).

The one I recieved looked very good, minimal manufacturing flaws, and very sharp.

The person who got this as a small gift was happy with the knife

I liked everything about this knife when I received except for the sharpness. I thought it could have been sharper straight out of the box. I needed to touch it up prior to taking it on my hunting trip. If not for that I would have given 5 stars

The knife was a Christmas gift.  I don't know if the receiver of the gift has used it yet but she was very impressed with the look and feel of the knife.

Having just returned from the Black Hills on a fishing trip, my buddy's birthday arrived and he had since moved out of town.  This was a perfect B-Day gift for him.  I bought the stainless blade for me and the damascus blade for him.  His only concern is that he will  likely not use it as a backup fishing knife because you have to keep damascus blades dry. or else they will rust.  So pick the blade that works best for you.

It's a good knife, but when I received it and looked it over the blade had a small chip out of it.

I wanted this knife as soon as I saw it. It is a great knife. It arrived promptly. I had no issues with purchase, delivery or quality. I anticipate using this for many years to come.

Bought this knife as a gift. Not a knife I would buy for my self but over all this an extremely sharp and durable knife.

I was given this knife as a gift, I keep it in my pocket and find myself using it throughout the day, I am so pleased with the knife that I wanted to give this as a gift to many of my friends, so I ordered 6 more to give away.

I purchased this knife thinking it would be the new LMF II advertised on Gerber's website but it wasn't. I was so happy to get this knife in I really didn't care. After opening the product I thought it looked and felt amazing. Then I inspected the knife and realized that the handle was loose. It made a clicking noise as I pressed both sides of the handle. I emailed Gerber and they said to send it back in. I sent it in and they finally sent me the newest model 22-41629. So if you plan on buying this knife from this seller expecting it to be the newest model know that it isn't. I spent a few dollars more thinking it would be the newest one and it fell short of my expectations. BUY FROM SOMEONE ELSE. This is why I gave this seller a low score. But after the new knife came in I can say that it was everything that I was expecting and more. Gerber customer care was very helpful. I will buy from Gerber again!

This is a nice knife, it came to me very sharp. I love the carrying holster too. No problems with anything (as of yet). Good gift idea for a knife collector or someone in need of a good knife.
