I like this knife, its great sturdy and even though it's a little too Rambo for my taste it is good for what it is meant to be used for. As for the tang not being a full tang, this goes to MICHAEL, it is intended that way for when you have t do some "Tactical" electrical work, and not get electrocuted. Thus they say its insulated.

Amazing!! Kaleb - NOV 3, 2012
I've had this knife for about a year know, and I have abused the heck out of it and it's been just shredding up what ever is in it's way. I will tell any one that this is worth buying!!

I Like It Better My Way!! Michael - AUG 18, 2012
I bought the Gerber LMF Survival and as usual curiosity got the best of me and I wanted to know what was inside the handle. I took the rubber over-mold off the plastic under it and of course it wasn't full tang as expected. So I came up with a solution, I welded the butt and the blade together with my stick welder using a 1/8 inch 7018 welding rod at about 100 amps or so ,then took some hemp and wrapped the "full tang now" knife handle with it many times until I was satisfied with the new handle shape. Next I went to Wal-mart and purchased some Gorilla Glue and put it over the hemp"(be careful to cover the blade if you try this as it can mess the blade finish up). After the glue drys take a Dremel and sand to the desired shape and "presto" you have a full tang Gerber LMF with a really tuff handle. Now be aware if you do this it will no longer be insulated blade to handle from electric shock(and it will probably void the knives warranty), but for all you survival/bushcraft junkies that crave full tang it certainly is better! Other than that this knife is great and the steel is awesome. Also works great for batoning wood!! -Michael W

awesome knife.. man it looks and feels amazing! the sheath is awesome and the blade shaves hair right out the box!!!
beefy knife but does the job. i went mountian biking and chopped in once slice some thick branches to blaze a trail..
the top of the hand grip peels from the sheath i hope gerber replaces this if it wears out

Perfect! Alec - JUN 21, 2012
This is the perfect knife for airmen in the field that can rely to get out of a plane and survive with it no problem. In my experience, it performed greatly batoning wood and making feather sticks to start a fire. I would reccomend this knife to anyone!

Unreal Zach - JUN 16, 2012
Well what can i say. Its great, the sheath has so many applications and the knife itself is beefy. I couldnt imagine what it would take to break it. Handle is nice and tacky, you won't loose the stick to it at all. See why the military approves is

Amazing Knife TJ - MAY 19, 2012
The LMF II is an incredible knife. Hands down the best fixed blade I've ever owned!

FF/EMT Fred Quimby - APR 27, 2012
Absolutely AWESOME knife. Worth every penny. The first time you hold it in your hand, you know its a quality knife. BEEFY full tang construction. I read about some Marines snipers using this knife to make a hold in a BRICK WALL to shoot through, and I dont doubt it for a second. You cannot break this knife, its an axe, a machete, and a pry bar all rolled into one sick knife. Awesome sheath, too, with a BUILT IN SHARPENER. USA made. Gerber is one of the best companies, period. Quality craftmanship, excellent customer support, and when they say "lifetime warantee", they mean it!! If you're considering buying this knife, STOP CONSIDERING and buy it already!!!!

Your Title Survivalist - MAR 13, 2012
Had the LMF II for about a year. I have used it to chop wood with a baton countless times. It has been in the rain and snow still having no problems. Plan to get another soon as a back-up. Great Job!!

Durable Michael - MAR 2, 2012
I have owned this knife for over a year now. I am a hunter, minimalist backpacker, as well as law enforcement trained. When I go into the woods or anywhere for that matter, I have this knife with me. I have used it to break windows at vehicle accidents, chopping wood, and butchering elk. I have not had any major problems with this knife. When I need it, It WORKS!! From numerous activities the forward lugs on the handle did get cut and beat up, but I just took a lighter and heated the rubber and remolded it. I bought one for a family member to take on depoyment and now that he is back the knife is always near him. I would suggest this knife for anyone in military, law enforcement, or ourdoorsman. Thank You gerber.

Best knife ever!!!! Fives - JAN 25, 2012
This is the most awesome knife ever! I have used it nuemoures times hunting to chop wood and even make home made stake stir a ground blind. Just be careful not to beat up the handle when hammering. Having this knife in the woods is like having a machete,saw, and knife all in one.
I love this knife!!!

Well Done! Riley - JAN 25, 2012
I Love this knife! the serrations are fantastic and it can compete with any other knife of its size in chopping ability. cuts through wood like a stick of butter. Nice job Gerber!

LT US Army EN - JAN 9, 2012
Great knife. Never was far from me in Afghanistan Used it chop, cut, scare some locals and even to pry doors open after we were hit with a blast. The blade never failed and the pommel is really handy. If when I die I and go to hell, I want this knife with me.

This is one of the best knifes you could possibly own! It may be heavy but it is so effective its not even funny! I tied on a fire rod and a survival whistle to my knife. If I had a dozen choices this is the knife I would get lost with! I LOVE USA MADE!!!

SSgT, USAF P. Schultz - OCT 2, 2011
I carried this knife through Iraq, Afghanistan, and even North Africa. This tool never let me down. It was daily exposed to drenching sweat, sand, extreme heat, and humidity. This knife is STRONG and durable, with great edge retention. Thanks Gerber! Will

Great knife just got it today but the blade and the handle finish could be better it looks like it had been lightly used but that does not affect the feel of the knife I like it allot. I have always had great luck with Gerber knifes. This knife should wor
