Reviews
ive had 4 other models of the bear grylls knives and this by far the best. love it love it love it
Very,very good idea love the knife
i going to get it
I just got this knife, I am very satisfied!
My husband bought this knife for me and I absolutely love it! He has bought me several knives in the past but this one is my fave!!! I dont leave home without it.
Want it
The handle is very comfortable and I was impressed with the quality of the actual knife, thinking it was just going to be some market ploy to slap a well known name on a piece of junk. My only problem is with the sheath. It's nice and all, but there's a groove on the inside that the blade goes into and sometimes the blade doesn't slide right into it and gets hung up and leaves wear marks on the blade.
I absolutley love this awesome blade!
ok, so im a 14 year old girl and i just got this knife in the mail , and i am pleased to say, I absolutely love it! its very sharp, very durable, has a good grip, and it fits me! i usualy have a hard time finding good knifes but not now. one thing that dissapoints me though is the sheath. i will be making a custom sheath that fits my expectations. thanks Bear Grylls and Gerber! this knife is amazing!
serrations are useful but not in a knife of this size. make a fine edge version and it will sell out. also the belt clip is not a good idea, get rid of it and put a sharpener there instead.
I've been waiting for this knife my whole life. Perfect size, perfect color, perfect.. All of it. I'll be making a custom sheath for it. This one is lacking. I'm not sure how to use it for every day carry. Other than that, thanks Gerber and Bear Grylls for making just what I need (and want) at a price I can handle.
I just got this knife in the mail and i can say i'm not disappointed. I havn't tested it yet but it feels very rigid and tough. My only complaint is the reversible clip, it feels less than secure.
Serrations are necessary in a survival knife for cutting rope and/or vine. Which is very difficult with a fine edge knife. I love this knife and all the other Bear Grylls knives.
Remember its a survival knife it should have serrations so stop slating it. Its very good btw!!!!!
i wanted to buy it today but it had serrations, you should make it in a fine edge like you did with the ultimate knife. If you guys make it in a fine edge then I will buy like 6 of them. But it is a good little knife!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then I will buy more than one.....
Just bought this knife from bass pro and I already love it. Haven't used it yet but can instantly tell when I held it in my hands that it felt like a solid workhorse for its size, also looks like it would make for a very good dive or watersports knife. Overall an excellent knife for the money, keep up the good work Gerber andBear Grylls
the serrations would be useful if they didn't bent over by sawing hardwood like oak..... now i have a $40 knife with serrations that are bent.... the serrations are alot stronger on any of the other bg knife this one failed my field test horribly.. guess i have another beater
Everyone forgets that this is a survival knife. It should have serrations. If you want a picture of it in a sheath go to amazon.
I just got this knife..great little knife..the sheath is pretty solid keeps the knife safe..also like the removable clip..the knife its self is awesome i dont mind the serrations...it still has a lot of straight edge for your cutting task
serrations are for cutting rope.
Very nice little knife I have bought bunches
Of survival knifes and kits for my kids and grandkids they all love them well worth the money Gerber tools are number 1
Keep up the good items

What serrations take away from a knife is that most of the time, they just get in the way. A fine edge is much smother cutting action. The serrations are to short to be of any use. Serrations are intended to be used to saw through materiel. However, I think that this is a great knife. Just wanted to put that in as my opinion.
asome i want it so bad I'm going to get it at dicks sporting goods
i like this knife.their are two things i would like for the knife to come with,a ferro rod,and that the blade would be at least 2 inches longr so it is more like a survival knife
very good knife and great style sheath with it.i think the serrations are great for cutting a lot of materials but serration do take up a lot of the blade and some people may have no use for them so its a waste on the blade, they should make another version of all of the bear grylls series knives with fine edges like the ultimate knife.
Look guys serrations are excellent and they make a knife more useful and all around better. the stay sharper longer and are just a good thing to have on a knife.
Totally disagree with most of these reviews... the serration's take nothing away from the knife (except maybe aesthetics) and add a whole useful element. If you live off the wild - you welcome this feature...
I like this knife how it is the only thing i would change is that iwould either make it foldable and have a sheath like the folding sheath knife or i would put it in the same sheath as the ultimate knife, also the blade is a little small.
Please make this knife with a full plain edge, I promise you that this will sell a LOT more.
please do it with out seration...it is a nicer knife than the ultimate surv knife...great master piece...except the seration...why dont gerber ever learn from mistakes? why do whe have to pray for you to make 2 options? with an without?
I agrea that it is a very good knife, but the serations spoil the feel of the thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very nice knife. Please also offer the option to buy just the blade.
Whats up with serations, I'm trying to get clean cuts and the serations are annoing. Please straight lade! No serations , please and thank you
this looks to be a great knife and I have one on pre order. I just hope you will bring out a plain edge one aswell.
I love the shape of this knife and the design and full thang construction. serations are more useless then usefull for survival situation in my opinion though.
could you please insert a compass on that plastic sheat? also please make this modele without seration as well. thank you!
great knife!
i dont like the seration however, make it without seration and I buy one.
i just recieved my 'exclusive tactical' fixed blade. looks a lot like(but is a little different) the knife you see above. but it is a bear grylls/gerber product and on first inspection it looks nifty. go to 'cabelas' as they are the exclusive sellers of this gerber product. like i say..the blade is very much like the above knife..but with subtle differences. compare them..but i very much like mine.
please make a fine edge and a non-bear grylls design and I will buy.
Sorry Bear, but I dont like orange.
Received my knife today, I can can tell you this knife is great. Will take out and put it to the test this weekend. Great job Gerber for another awesome knife!
The knife looks really nice,but like many before me has said,it would be even better WITHOUT the serrations,but i ight consider buying it anways :)
Good knife, but when i took mine from the package the serrations were bent and such
please make a fine edge and I will buy
Looks sweet, now just make it fine edge and you got a deal!
Very nice and useful. Must have!
Looks very nice! I totally agree with many other comments here that a fine edge, ie non-serrated, would be more interesting.
Maybe a version that has serrations along all of the edge would be of interest to some too?
Scandi-grind anyone?
this knife is perfect fot throwing, i threw it at a deer because somehow i forgot my arrowsand it hit itirghtbetween the eyes thanks gerber
What does it look like with the case on??
you should put this thing on the Parang! ;)
This would be a grea tknife for scouts because we need something under 4".
I would like to see a fixed blade scout knife with the same sheath as the ultimate survival knife but under 4" and dosent burn a hole in your pocket.
will this be in fine edge as well.
i am a rock climber so the size of this thing is perfect, and the serrations are perfect
Looks promising! Can't wait to pick one up! I would really like to see a BG E-Tool some day!
You can go to rocky mountain knife works and buy it there and it is on their website. Great knife though, I also have the ultimate knife, works great!!!!!!!, I highly recommend it.Man it is amazing, never puts you down.
i think this knife is a very good idea because of the shape of the blade as well as the size of the knife, but the serrations should go because they can get damaged really easy in the field, and please get it in stock soon.
The serations cut better than fine edge but any way GET IT IN STOCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
COME ON WHEN ARE YOU GUYS GONA GET IT IN STOCK?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Looks amazing! Serrations are great for suvial, you guys are under the suvial category !! Plus its fine edge plus serrated...If you want a full fine edge look at the rest of gerber!
make a fine edge one and that would be great:-)
hi gerber coud you get this in stock
you need to make more bear grylls knives, and with a little bit bigger blade
I love the knife, but you guys need to make this knife with a little bigger blade, and have a stright edge one too.
I love your bear grylls line, but along with 99% of everyone else I find combo edges to be the biggest pain in the a** ever! Just forget about the serations, and stick to fine edge blades.
serrations are good for when you are in the wild cutting through vines rope and wood so the serrations make it a good SURVIVAL knife because you survive in the WILD. Get with it people.
hey it's look like a nice knife. But I has a question. how does the knife lock i the sheat? is there eny thing you should push at?
I'm italian,how much does it cost in italy? I'll buy it certainly because also the folding scheath is great,but fine edge would better
Get this knife in stock with a picture of the sheath, and make a fine edge one please
okay.......when did this guy come in stock here? and what the heck is it? It looks awesome! but i wish i new what the price was! Because of it being out of stock i cant see the price! once i found out what it is maybe with the money i have left i could buy one!
Serretations again?! Stop this nonsense!
get it in stock
Please make the knife with a fine edge. If you do, I will buy one. Because it looks like a greate knife. I love the design, without the serratations!
I honestly don't understand WHY you want to make every knife with a feature that has a very limited range of use.
