Guardian Back Up - Double Edge, Fine Edge

I must say, it's light weight! Way lighter than I expected. The tang is even more, I thought it was about half way or less. The sheath is wonderful. Even comfortable enough to strap to a sock and you can adjust the tension so it doesn't even pull your sock but it still stays in. The knife has not seen fighting or anything but seems to be very nice. Lovely handle. It's even great for lace p boots. But I do agree with SGT. ARMY SNIPER the sheath seems like it wouldnt stand up so well of much tactical/intense use. But for urban carry it's wonderful. Especially the weight.

I love this knife, I keep it on my boot, and it has seen some hard uses. However the sheath itself is not very durable, I have to use a great deal of "gorilla" tape to keep the sheath in one piece.

Oh man! Shawn, I think John Phillips found your knife!

This is a great kife, very light slick design is perfect for use. My only quiestion is that i found this knife while doing some work in the woods and was wondering if their was anyway to buy a "cover" of some sort for it? does anyone know where?

This will actually be my 4th of these knives. Not due to the quality or any fault of Gerber (I lost 2 while in the mountains and woods and 1 was stolen). I love this sleek and handy little blade and look forward to having it back in my hands and on my person!

i would like to get one ....... if i had money

i love this knife it's very easy to conseal and you can put it anywhere on you a great knife to buy

very nice for practicing by myself. great throwing weight... almost perfectly balanced, always "sticks" in to target never leave home without it

this knife is great, ive never had to use it, but i always have it concealed on my person, wether in my cowboy boots or my flight boots. also, with a little stretching of the inner thigh pocket on a flight suit it is a perfect fit.

I just had to buy this knife when I saw it. I have always had a folder in my pocket, which has been helpfull to cut seatbelts from time to time, but I'm looking forward to adding this to my duty belt, just incase the opportunity presents itself that I need a back up.

This is a cheap knife I dropped it while is was out in the field. It hit a rock and bent the tip and took a little chip out of it as well. I DID NOT THROW IT. It literally slipped out of my hands.

Simplicity is the key to brilliance and this is ever much so for this knife. It is not a typical fighting knife or dagger as it is small but then again it was made for the purpose of a boot or back up knife. "Sharp" ain't the word for this knife. The spear point on this is amazing and the handle very grippy. My only qualms were with the sheath. It was hard to adjust and was frustrating. I think it was just a bad production draw, a defect. Once you get your tension level stick with it. Other than that I love this knife.

I had this knife all four years in the Army i bought it in the post exchange at Ft. benning and it went though Korea with me in the mud and rain, I love this knife, stateside at Ft Campbell it helped me get out of a sticky situation when i was hung up under a blackhawk. Some one stole it though and i still miss it

I've had two of these. Misplaced one and think the other got stolen. I want at least one more so I always have one close by. Stays pretty sharp and effortless to use. Great little blade. I'd hate to be on the wronge end of this plade.

i would be very happy to buy this knife if it had a full tang or at least a bolt securing the blade.

I have carried this knife for many years, including overseas as an MP. Now that I've retired from the military, it continues to be my backup; wearing it hidden, but within easy reach, on my vest. I've tried a lot of different knifes over the years to use as a backup, but I've never run across one that can beat this Gerber. Its true to its name...Guardian

im slowly getting to the point were all my gear is gerber picked this knife up and like usual the only problem i have is the edge but one you get it sharp it seems to stay and any way my opion is if you want a knife to last you should own a sharping kit anyways, in my years i have had alot of knives and tools but gerber is the only one to get it right thanks guys

I've own this boot knife for 5 years. I always carried it on the outside of my boot under my flight suit, no one ever noticed it. The metal clip although it is removable, it remained in place all the time and kept the knife attached to my boot. The Never lost it. Flew with it over 250 combat hours. Took it with me on every deployment, while flying and on convoys. Easy to conceal and practical. For its price it is a great boot knife.

I bought this knife on my first deployment and the first time I went to take out while it was on my belt the sheath broke. The little metal clip comes right off the plastic sheath with a good tug. I'm just glad it happened when I was trying to show a buddy my new knife and not when it mattered. I tried using the sheath without the crappy metal clip but I can't seem to get it attached to my belt or anything.

I owned this knife about 4 times. Lost it twice, had it stolen once and the last time, it was "lost" in my move. So maybe stolen twice. However, I keep coming back to it. It's simple design and comfortable grip, combined with it's light weight and adjustable sheath, all come together to make this one heck of a nice knife! The blade stays sharp seemingly forever and the overall feel and look of it just keep me coming back again and again. Maybe this time I can hold onto it for longer than 2 years.

Been on my airborne jump rig for years! Never used it, ever. Love the sheath and the sleek handle that does not allow slipping. Prefer the Gerber 06 Auto to get me out of any parachuting mishap!

I had this knife for about two years I loved it until the blade came off of the handle then I felt that I had spent alot of cash for a cheap knife

Have had this knife for about 2 years and still absolutely love it. Small, light, and simple. The clip on the hard sheath is also somewhat rotatable(horizontal or vertical) to allow for endless carry possibilities.
