Llego antes de lo esperado, muy buen cuchillo y es Gerber original!!

Couteau agréable a manier, pas trop lourd, la lame est épaisse et le manche confortable. J aurais aimer une garde un peu plus marquée, le système de verrouillage est efficace, le support horizontal pour ceinture est appréciable. Les pressions du support de ceinture classique sont très dur a détacher et mal serties, elle s'arrachent au premier essai, prévoir de les remplacer.

Practico, útil y resistente.

Llego a tiempo como descrito, muy bien empacada. Es original.

Excelente calidad del producto, tal y como lo esperaba.

This is fabulous. So far i have used this for firewood prep,, food prep etc. the blade is super sharp, and despite the coating the 90 degree angle on the blade works perfectly with a ferro rod for fire lighting. plus with a perfect balance it feels safe in your hand and acts in a predictable way. I know some people are against the semi serrated blade but for what i need it's right. I have to say it's all pro and no cons. I would recommend this blade for it's strength and construction quality as when you're miles away from anywhere and relying on your equipment this will do the job. I know some people will not like the 420 HC steel but I live in the north of England where it's rainy and damp a lot of the time and 420 HC is a good compromise as it's resistance to rust is better than some of the higher tech steels used in more expensive blades.

This is an excellent blade. I only have two very specific criticisms about it, and neither has in any way impeded my enjoyment of it.First, the good points.This is an excellent survival or camp knife. It's just the right size - large enough for real work but not too large you feel silly. The blade is sharp and the point is good. Some have mixed feelings about the serration, but I personally prefer it for cutting rope and the like; it works fine for this purpose. The spine of the blade is more than thick enough that I never felt any hesitation about batonning with this knife (using it like a wedge to cut wood - you hit the spine with another piece of wood to force it into the log). It's held up chopping its way through a couple dozen large chunks of wood with no complaints at all, though some of the black on the blade is wearing off along the taper of the blade. The grip is comfortable and appropriately textured, even if your hands are wet or sweaty; the shape of the grip in particular holds your hand lengthwise and feels more comfortable and natural than just an oval grip.The only downsides I have are related to the sheath. The included sheath has a variety of attachment options, so it's clear someone tried, but I find them all awkward to use. Slinging it across your belt horizontally is a bad idea because the handle sticks out and gets caught and the belt loop connectors are oddly sized. Slinging it vertically on your belt is equally awkward. I mostly just stuck it in my pocket (in the sheath), which worked fine. In addition to these, the retention mechanism involves a piece of plastic that gets caught on the groove you can see in the knife's guard at the base of the blade. This works fine, but I do feel like in time, with multiple removals, this mechanism will weaken and the knife will no longer be retained in the sheath. In fact, after perhaps 50-100 cycles, I think I can already feel this happening.That being said, it's a great knife and my current daily driver. Be aware of the price: on amazon, the four variations (black serrated, black smooth, brown serrated, brown smooth) vary between $70 and $110 CAD depending on the supplier and what's in stock. Sometimes if you wait a bit, the variation you want will be in stock and you can knock twenty or thirty bucks off the price. On the other hand I've only ever seen it in stores around $90-$100, so $70 or $75 may not matter much.

Hermoso cuchillo, su agarre muy bueno. Se nota la calidad y se siente. Muy recomendable. Tarde en decidir que cuchillo comprar y fue una decisión muy difícil, pero se que fue una buena compra. Hecho en usa.

Es la actualización del Prodigy, el cuchillo en si es muy parecido con el prodigy, apenas cambia el rompecocos y un poco el mango, donde si cambia y es lo que me llevo a comprarlo es en la funda, mucho mas versátil y adaptable al sistema MOLLE. En mi opinión es un excelente cuchillo, con acero 440 "Made in USA" y excelentes acabados. Es claramente un cuchillo militar alejado de los comerciales Bear Grylls.

I received this knife as a Father's Day gift, and all I can say is WOW!I normally don't expect very much from Gerber ever since they came out with all the lousy Bear Grylls knives that virtually break if you breath on them too hard! But after watching all of the very positive YouTube reviews on this knife, I decided I would add it to my wish list and see what all the hype was about. I must say, after using this knife for a while, I'm very pleasantly surprised! I think my opinion of Gerber may finally be changing!The knife:This knife is extremely solid in the hand! I would put it up against my ESEE4 and ESEE6 everyday of the week as far as durability goes! The diamond textured rubber overmolded grip is fantastic! Wet or dry, there is no way this knife is slipping out of your hands! The pommel of the knife sports a nice glass-breaker/attitude adjuster, that can be used for a multitude of tasks and is a handy feature to have. The black ceramic blade coating is not overly rough like the Becker and ESEE knives, which is a plus in my book! The blade looks as though it's about 3/16" thick, but Gerber did a very nice job with the saber grind and as a result, this knife cuts like a beast! Despite what some people have said in their YouTube reviews, this knife is PERFECTLY capable of making some beautiful feather sticks (as you can see by my pictures!). The grip shape is very neutral and extremely comfortable in the hand! It easily allows for a multitude of grip options which is awesome! Just a very well thought out grip! Nice job Gerber! The blade is constructed from 420HC stainless steel and holds a great edge! Gerber did an excellent job with the heat treat. The blade also came from the factory with a beautifully, symmetrically ground and very sharp edge! I'm also really happy to see that this knife was made right here in Oregon, USA! The folks over at Gerber did a very nice job finishing and sharpening this knife!The drop point blade does have an unsharpened swedge for combat and piercing applications. Sure, it will be a bit harder on your baton for bushcrafting purposes, but by no means a deal-breaker! Besides, it's nice to know that I have a knife that can handle combat and self defense roles as well! You never know when you might have to fend off a wild animal. The spine of the blade also comes ground to a very nice 90 degree angle suitable for striking a ferro rod! Another welcomed bonus! Finally, and probably the most awesome feature about the knife....NO SERRATIONS!!! FINALLY! It's about time Gerber finally produce an outdoor fixed blade knife without serrations! So enjoy this one folks because it may be a while before Gerber makes anymore plain edged knives! LolThe sheath:This sheath is probably one of the most well thought out and well executed sheaths I've ever received on a production knife! I definitely prefer this sheath to the over-praised ESEE sheaths! The sheath is constructed from a high quality thermo-plastic with plenty of rivets and lashing points for molle and paracord lashing options. The sheath also sports a detachable clip for scout-carry and can also be adjusted for another molle type carry on the back side of the sheath using a removable clip. If this weren't enough, the sheath also comes standard with high quality and well finished, thick nylon webbing for standard drop-leg belt carry options. The button snaps are very strong and quality made! I don't see this sheath having any issues whatsoever, but in the event that you ever do, Gerber has a sterling reputation as far as their customer service and warranty goes, so I don't think you'll have any worries! And for the lefties out there, this sheath is also designed to allow the user to insert the knife into the sheath in either left or right handed orientation. Great job Gerber! It's excellent to see a company finally showing us lefties some attention!Bottom line:Buy this knife! I'd certainly buy this knife again in a heart beat! This knife is certainly worth it's exceptional price point of $47 as of June, 2016. For that price, I would pick up two and put one away as a backup! I'm a strong believer of the "two is one, and one is none" motto! Highly recommended! Hopefully this knife will change a lot of people's minds about Gerber!
