Editorial Review
About the Gerber LMF II Infantry Knife
The Gerber 22-01629 LMF II Infantry Knife is as adaptable as the personnel who carry it. The partially serrated, 3-3/4 inch blade is can be used to cut through the skin of a fuselage, sever a seat belt, or egress through the Plexiglas of a chopper. This infantry knife also does a slick job cutting firewood and building shelter and can even be lashed to a pole to create a spear. On the end of the knife is a flat spot strong enough to drive a nail. This rugged and versatile survival tool features a high carbon stainless blade with shielded black surface. The handle is constructed with glass-filled nylon. The knife fits in a Molle-attachable sheath. The LMF II comes with Gerber's limited lifetime warranty.

Who It's For
Military personnel, serious outdoorsmen, and adventuters.

A Note About LMF II Inventor Jeff Freeman
The Army trained Jeff to be an expert machinist, and then stationed him in Panama to perform aviation maintenance and toolmaking. Upon completion of his tour of duty he earned his BS in Manufacturing Engineering from Oregon State University while working full-time as a welder, machinist and ironworker. He joined the Gerber team in 1998. In the spring of 2000, he was promoted to Senior Mechanical Engineer and has been involved in new product design and development. Jeff's design credits include the Freeman Fixed Blade and collaboration on the Gerber-Emerson Alliance.

The Gerber Story
Savvy. Ingenuity. Moxie. Craftsmanship. Attention to detail. These are just a few of the company traits that contributed to our emergence as a world leader in outdoor gear. But then there's the issue of toughness. And frankly, nothing could be tougher than living down the first career of founder Joseph Gerber as...that's right...an advertising man. You could call it the "Boy Named Sue" syndrome. And live it down we have.

Joseph Gerber started Portland, Oregon's Gerber Advertising back in 1910. One Christmas, he hired a local knifemaker to craft 25 sets of kitchen cutlery as client gifts. The knives were so popular, Mr. Gerber ultimately left his agency to launch Gerber Legendary Blades in 1939.

It makes sense, really. An idea man gets the idea of a lifetime and turns it into a major outdoor brand. One that commands respect among knifelovers and knifemakers alike. And now that high regard is spreading in new directions, in the form of many outstanding products. Such as tools, personal L.E.D. lighting, and backpack hydration.

great product 2008-07-16
i would buy this knife again it does everything it needs to do around camp, very sturdy, the only thing the sheath is huge but with the sharperner and the leg straps i guess it needs to be, the calf straps are cool, because you can simply attach this huge knife to your leg and walk around, it messes with people which is fun


A great knife for the price! 2008-06-26
This is one sturdy knife. I was able to split wood with ease and still hold a good edge. IT has a good weight and comes with a great sheath, with its own blade sharpener.

The hammer edge also comes in real handy. Have not tried tying the knife to a stick but its a great option in a survival situation. Paired with a fire steel fire starter, makes the pair a great survival kit.


Very good stuff 2008-06-25
Very sturdy and well balanced, it fits perfectly in my hand. I'd still prefer a fine edge vs serrated but that only a small con. I've only used it for light duty stuff but so far the blade has been pretty good. I like the integrated sharpener, easy to use. The sheath is also very well made and has many attachment options.
Overall very good knife.


One heck of a knife! 2008-06-05
First off, the size of this knife is bigger than I expected. This isn't going to slip into a pocket or be inconspicuous in any way. The sheath is rather large and has many diferent ways to attach to your person. The blade is thick and could only be described as heavy duty although it is not overly long. The handle provides a very secure grip. If you you were to go on a hike in a remote area, this would be one must have item along with food, water and signaling devices. The sheath has a nifty honing slot in it. I rate the quality as first rate.


One of gerbers best 2008-03-25
This is one of Gerber's best knives.Buy one now because Gerber has a history of dis-continuing some of their best knives.
This knife is a great value considering that it is as good a knife as the Trident series which cost much more.The only shortcoming of this knife is the sheath,It's for a molle' vest and does not carry well for most.Some may see this as a plus, the constuction and material is first rate. The knife fits well in your hand,has a stout well shaped blade.The chisel point on the end of the handle is functional, but I wouldn't count on the hammer funtion,the flat is just too small.


Outstanding tactical knife 2008-01-30

Good but not for everyone 2007-12-18
This is a great knife. Sharp, Sturdy, and Useful. However it is heavy and bulky, not to mention hard to remove from the sheath.


Great Experience 2007-12-18
Excellent Item at a great price. The knife is razor sharp, be careful. The Product is pretty much as described, it looks very rugged and I'm sure will last a long time.


Sweet knife 2007-12-10
Very substantial blade, nice a weighty in the hand. Good for heavy duty chores, camping, and it just looks cool.


Great knife at a good price 2007-11-07
very sharp and sturdy. Not sure I'll ever need to punch through my canopy but still a great knife.
