- An unbiased review of the Bear Grylls ultimate survival Knife made by Gerber, I have owned this Knife for 4 years and have decided to give my thoughts on it without getting into the Bear Grylls debate, I'm looking at this Knife as a tool, and I will give my thoughts on its build quality and functionality.

Good video Dan, must say i have to agree with you, i am a retired knifemaker, and all what you do on your previous videos with the knife and what you did here shows it aint a bad knife, i have never used one in the field, but held plenty and they do feel comfortable, thanks for sharing the video look forward to the next one 👍
I think the handle is one of its best features to be honest.. it is very comfortable in the hand in all weathers.
Great to have a comment from a former knife maker in here, i didn’t know that about you..I will pin this one to the top.
Thanks for watching Mick
Have a good weekend

Dan, I have seen this knife being used countless times in your videos. This has to be the most honest long term review I have seen, it's done what you want and it does what you want. Bare Frills doesn't come into it really, it is the knife that counts. I would buy one, based on what you have said, and shown. Thank you for sharing your time, ATB Dave
Exactly what I was trying to get across, as a tool it’s pretty good.
It’s my pleasure to make the videos mate 👍
Thanks for watching them 😃
I owned one for a few years when the fine edge version came out. To be totally honest it was a perfect knife for my needs. Camping and bushcraft. The ferro rod worked fine with the groove on the back of the blade. I only sold it when I bought the tops b.o.b at double the price. I do like the tops b.o.b but the bear grylls survival knife did everything I needed in the woods it's a great knife for the money. I would personally recommend it. All the best. Chris
I wished for the straight edge one for months but I got used to the serrated in the end. That flat bit for striking the ferro rod has also been great for grating fat wood, you get a nice fine powder from it.
Thanks for putting your feedback in here, really appreciate it bud

Hi Dan, totally agree with your views on the knife.
I've had mine about 5 years now and like yours still in one piece and
still as good as new ,some scratches on the sides of the blade from batoning .
The only trouble I had was with the rubberised handle,(being I live in tropical
north Queensland Australia).was that it felt very slimy after a while.
The simple solution was I para cord wrapped the handle,
Love your videos keep up the good work atb London Aussie Steve
Thanks for the comment Steve, that’s interesting that you have had trouble with the grip, I’ve always found it great in all weathers, maybe it’s a climate thing.
Nice video! I love the Bear Grylls line of Gerber gear and have a few of the items. I had this one with the serrations but they didn't hold up as well for me and I exchanged it for the fine-edge, which is kick ass. I do prefer the pro which is my favorite Bear Grylls fixed blade (I also have the paracord and the smaller survival fixed blade). It's also refreshing to see videos still being made highlighting this great line of survival tools. Thank you! I also laughed at how you introduced it as a gift from your wife and then promptly started beating it up.
Love your vids mate ,thanks for keeping doing them
No problem Dan, I have fun making them. it is my genuine pleasure : )
Thanks for making an honest review on a decent knife. People love to hate this knife, but it really isn’t bad at all. I’ve had a couple of them for years without issue.
Still got mine. 👍
I just bought the Gerber ultimate survival knife which is just a different color of that knife and it's now one of my favorites
Whether it's a good knife or not I don't know - never owned or tried one, but I am still immensely fond of my first outdoors knife and I'm sure you are too.
For sure! Not sure if I’d have chosen it but it’s been great and will always be special 👍
I replaced the whistle with a mini flashlight and shortened the lanyard.
*For 15 years I've used this knife regularly. It’s been invaluable through many rugged and demanding tasks. My edge stays sharp and the diamond sharpener is convenient. The Ferro rod is a soft composition and makes starting fires easier, IMO.
+The orange and grey design makes it easier to locate if ever lost in the leaves :) The orange "BG" logo is tacky, but it's still a Gerber.
It is the perfect wife gift to husband knife and knife snobs can mock it and gerber all they want...it's still a successful selling knife and as you proved it can handle heavy usage for years and did everything you needed it to. Survival on Purpose had the same sentiment. Makes you wonder about the integrity of many other YTers reviews and thwir motives. Throw your knife at a tree stump repeatedly or stfu! Lol good stuff!
I saw survival on purpose's I think was a 1 year review recently. it was balanced and fair I thought.
“Cuts thing, lights fires, chops things” - I LOLed when you said that. What we need a knife to do!
I’ve always thought it was weird to have a serrated edge on a bushcraft knife and yet there you are doing feather sticks and everything with it no problem (you are sooo good at feather sticks BTW, I need to practice more!).
I saw mcqbushcraft review a knife which had an ugly plastic sheath. He said when your mates knife with a pretty leather sheath falls in the river he’ll wish he had yours!
Great review. Looks aren’t everything. 😊
Rosy_Outdoors I think the serrated part is also meant to double as a saw, as it’s a knife to survive with, it tries to cover all bases I suppose.
We all have to practice stuff to get good at it, I’m not bad with knives as I work with them too.. there are other areas of my skill set that are woefully lacking .. practice takes a lifetime but it’s great fun 😁👍
IIRC the idea behind the serrated edge was that it could be sharpened easily with a pebble...hmmm not too sure about that, it seemed a bit gimmicky to me but it's good to know that the blades usefulness doesn't suffer because of it.
Good morning, thank you for the review I have owned one for many years I think for the money it’s really great I’ve used it extensively and never had a problem too many people only criticise don’t look at the positives or serve in the British Army. I’ve taken mine away many times no problem. Great grip easy to use. I don’t know what the problem is as I say too. Many people are too negative. It’s a knife under £100 even cheaper in the US, what do you expect for under $100 thank you once again
I have this knife. And it was basically my first knife too.
You’re right - it does everything you need and I’ve never had any “problems” with it. I’m not a fan of the grip on the handle; but I fixed that by wrapping a shoelace around it.
Aesthetically, I’m not a fan of the colour scheme; but I guess that’s useful so you can see the bright orange. I’m also not a fan of the “Bear Grylls” decal on it because I don’t want to come across as a fanboy - but I guess it is a signature series, so you can’t really get around that.
The fire starter and the blade sharpener are nice touches on the sheath.
Personally, I have a pretty decent collection of knives. My personal favourite is the gerber strongarm - but this one will always also be in my pack for the fire starter and blade sharpener.
Hi Dan. Very informative and unbiased video. I like your videos the most on UA-cam because you don't have an ego. And are always freindly and have an open mind on everything you do. It's easy to watch. I learn a lot from your videos. I don't have a BG knife. But I might look into it when I go for another knife. I live very near you. Been to many of the places you go. Am trying to go out more with my son Bushcrafting as we are quite new to it. if you are ever out and about And free we'd love to join you and learn first hand. Keep up the good work. You deserve more subscribers.
Thanks Barry, get in touch via my email in the about section or through Facebook and we can chat about doing something once it warms up a bit. 👍
@@CampLifeBushcraft Thank you. I will do. My son will be excited, he likes your videos. Have a good day.
you too mate : )
Got the new one that’s the same except gray and green and no BG branding. Only $33. Exactly the same as this one. Really surprised at how well this knife has done when taking it out in the woods. I have many knives of all price ranges. For the price, very few are as good.
I just looked the one up without the BG stuff on it.. nearly bought it then and there 😬
@@CampLifeBushcraft it’s definitely one of my favorites. Can use for so much and I actually feel more secure with it. Of course the .44 makes me feel secure too 🤣
We have a lot of bears here, have to be careful.
I don't own this Ultimate knife but I was gifted the smaller foldable knife from Gerber, same color scheme, same serated part of the blade, fairly thick, good ergonomics and comfortable to hold, used for about 3 years and it's a propper good knife and it works as a tool, it's not one of those fancy craftman's sort of knives but it does its job very well.
As for Bear Grylls I watched the show and I know the tricks and nasty bits about it...but for Bear Grylls the man, as far as survival skills and actual achievements like climbing mount Everest and serving in the army...he seems like a good bloke, shame the tv show producers stained his image.
Yeah, I have no problem with him. He inspires people to get outdoors which can only be a good thing.
Nice one Dan mate, an honest review, 4 years with a lot of abuse over that time shows how good this knife is, I've got a Gerber Gator folder and I do love it but hate the serated bit on it, Gerber in the old days made some quality knives and yes they get a slating lately but perhaps if you can pick up an older one it's worth it.
Thanks mate, yeah I did used to hate the serrated part but I don’t think about it much anymore.
I posted this on some Facebook groups and I’m getting dogs abuse in some.. they don’t like Gerber and they don’t like bear.. I also don’t think they’ve actually taken the time to watch the video reading some of the comments.
People are funny 😁
@@CampLifeBushcraft Grrrr,rrr people that don't watch a whole video 😒😒
I don’t think they’ve watched any of it.. just seen the picture and launched into there opinion.
Pretty funny really 😋
It was to be expected.
LUV U & UR VIDEO'S ... ESPEACIALLY THE WAY U ARE W/ UR PRECIOUS DOG TINK KEEP UP THE GR8 WORK 💕🐕
Thanks Lucy 😁
I own the Gerber Ultimate (without bear grylls signature) and honestly no complaints. I honestly don’t really know the differences.
Just the price I think 🤔
I have this same knife and I think it is a very good and useful knife. I’m glad to see an honest review of a (REAL) Bear Grylls knife like you have. About 98% of the reviews I’ve seen saying this knife is junk are all done with counterfeit Bear Grylls knives. You can always tell the real from the fakes by the Gerber font on the blade and sheath. If anyone is interested in knowing the difference between the real and fake knives go to theconterfeitreprt.com and type in Bear Grylls Ultimate knife and they show you how to tell if it’s a real or fake.
Thanks Joseph, since uploading this I've had similar videos come up in my YT feed and some with broken knives as the thumbnail.. they don't even look the same to be honest, the handles look plastic.
thanks for your comment

I like Bear Grylls. 😄 Used to watch him a lot when I was still in Philippines. Thanks for the honest review. It does look a pretty good tool. I’m easy pleased so I like that it has a fire starter too. 😅 Cheers, Mari
Funsized Earthling .. I’ve nothing against him either, his shows are entertaining.. way better than eastenders! It’s a great tool.. it has never let me down. That’s all we ask of things that we rely on.
Salamat Mari 😁👍
Oooo! You sold it to me hehe. Will have to have a word with hubby. My birthdays in July hehe... Great little review. Thank you Dan
Haha, thanks 😊
I own two of those knives. That is the exact same knife Gerber sells under other names. I found such a good sale I bought two of them. And since I'm leaving a comment on a 3 year old obscure knife review, you can tell I don't care about looking cool. Haha. This knife works great. I have one I've been using for years and the other never used in my bag. I say grabe one if you can find it at a good price. I love mine.
Great video. To the sad folk who gave thumbs down get a grip. Anyway thumbs up from me.
Thanks mate, I always get a 1 thumbs down within a minute of uploading any video. People are strange, going to the effort of being available at 6pm every week for me to show me their displeasure.. That’s a hardcore level of bitterness they’re holding on to.
Water off a ducks back 😁👍
@@CampLifeBushcraft NO Problem u are the one to thanks. U are encouraging people to go out and explore camp ect. So u should be proud of yourself I am so keep the good work up. Last night live stream was a great success. Again thank you for taking your time to share your knowledge and experience with us all. Atb Kerr,
Remember, I’m just an idiot in the woods though. 😋😊
@@CampLifeBushcraft pmsl
I have had the knife and used it for a good while. Its a shade overpriced due to the logo. Gerber themselves seem to have dropped their own version in favour of the branded one. I eventually gifted it to someone and replaced it with a gerber moment off amazon. A bit smaller but just as practical. Unfortunately it didn't come with the fancy sheath. All in all though, like you said. It does everything a knife needs to do.
Thanks for commenting Pat, I reckon your spot on there.
I just ordered Gerber's unbranded version yesterday and it's full Tang, with the sheath for 45.70
Great review that mate! Well tested too! All the best mate
Ash
Cheers Ash 👍
I searched this knife because thinking of getting one, soon as I’m done here, that’s what I’m doing, I think the seath is designed fir versatiley AND rain or river’s, unlike fancy leather....that knife throwing was a hoot !!!
(new sub)
I have one and use it from time to time I just swap out my knives from time to time and I never pass it up when it's turn comes up has always did good for me, I don't mind using it at all, Great video, well done, Thanks for sharing
Thanks Jerry, I appreciate you putting your thoughts in the comments.

Dan
Loved those throws!! 😂😂😂 great review, I appreciate it
Glad you enjoyed
I renovated my bathroom and used the knife to remove the tiles bashing it with a hammer lol it copped a flogging and I did snap the tip off but she's still good enough to cut stuff with
Great honest review mate, I say the same thing about my mora I use, it does what a knife should do. It's interesting that the sheath allows it to go sideways. I've been looking at different knifes with this functionality. Atb Steve.
Thanks Steve,
you can pick up sheaths for the mora online, I have a leather dangler for mine, only around £10. I'm sure you must be able to get sideways carry ones too.
ATB Mate
Dan
If you don't like the way it looks then search for the Gerber Unisex's Ultimate or something like that. Its the same knife (from the looks of it) without the Bear Grylls stuff. Instead of orange its a dark green color.
Thank you Dan. A very fair review I think. Four years use...and as you say, not always treated well, says a lot . By the way, I love Skodas...on my 5th.
haha! apologies for the Skoda comment, it popped in my head : )
thanks for watching bud

@@CampLifeBushcraft None taken at all.
Good video!!! Awesome job
Thanks Carroll 😁
I have the Ultimate Pro, used it loads over the years, and at the risk of being boring my experience is the same as yours. it did the tasks, it did not fall apart the blade still takes an edge. My one gripe is the sharpening for the pro which is great for touching up but if you get a burr it is useless. funny enough I have never used the fire steel as out of habit I reach for the one in my fire kit.
The pro has the sharpener in the handle like a household sharpener doesn’t it? That seems a step backwards to me. Other than that the pro looks superior.
I don’t use the ferro rod anymore on mine but it’s a decent backup.
@@CampLifeBushcraft yeah your right it is like a kitchen sharpener and it is OK for touching up the edge but nothing else, and yeah it is a step backward
Nice review: this knife is function over form. No you won't take it to the week-end match, but when you are on the river or deep in the Canadian rookies this is a great knife. The colors do make it easy to see
👍
Gerber has released an unmarked version ( no BG ) of this knife in grey/green color configuration available at BladeHQ, if anyone is interested.....? Great video mate!
It's about time someone had enough balls to say that it's a good knife. It really is. People's opinion on Bear has no bearing here.
Thanks Dave, I quite agree 👍👍
I haven’t used one but I am trying to get one and the videos I have looked at seem to be all okay not One broke
a good knife is just a good knife! who cares if others dont like it or how you choose to use it. keyboard warriors are always going to talk crap about one thing or another. F-them all. As far as being garish, the colors sure do help to not lose it when you put it down on the ground. Great video brother. It made me like comment and subscribe!
Thanks buddy!
I agree with the bright colours being a good thing to help not lose it. It makes sense.
Yeah, it seems to be a good functional knife (as pretty much all Gerber blades are), but the Bear Grylls branding definitely drives the price on this up significantly. I (probably over)paid $81-something total for the one I got at a gun show recently (a not well thought out spur of the moment purchase, I'll admit, but it's over and done with, so I consider it a learning experience). Gerber no longer lists the BG knives on there website, so IDK what the company MSRP is, but the Gerber Ultimate (the generic version of this knife without the BG branding and the orange coloring replaced with green) is listed at $46 USD. If I'd known I could get that one for half the price, I would have. C'est la vie, as the saying goes.
In any case, I haven't had an opportunity to put my BG Ultimate to use yet, but I have a Gerber Prodigy (which this knife is derived from, IIRC) that I have used to satisfaction, so I don't have any doubts about the knife itself. I do think the sheath leaves some to be desired, such as a bigger belt loop, a better, more accesible place to store the little survival guide than the pocket on the back (which partially blocks the belt loop when inserted), and a thumb snap restraining strap instead of velcro.
Great video review buddy. I have the gerber ultimate. And its the samething without BG on it. Wonderful knife. Edge doesn't stay sharp long and came pretty dull,but its a beast and can handle 💪 alot..I subscribe also bud.Take care look forward to many more reviews.
Thanks for subbing, yeah I have a soft spot for the knife, as my wife gave it to me I had to use it.. but I love it now!
Hi Dan I've got a bear grills ultimate survival knife it was my first knife I also got the small axe and a folding bear grills knife for my grandson the axe is actually very good not been used for a long time to be honest atvb jimmy 😎😎
How do you get on with the knife Jimmy?
@@CampLifeBushcraft I found it good to use it done everything I needed it to do the only thing I didn't like was the v shape sharpener was crap other than that I liked it atvb Jimmy 😎😎
Hey there, thanks for your video in this unspectecular version. I also got one gifted years ago and I am with you. It gets every job done and is pretty relieable. Not Nice, too expensive because of the name, but guess what... I´ve bought another in black/green-colour. Everything else is exactly the same including the firestarter, the whistle, and yes, its nearly half the price. To bring this to an end: I like it, and would buy another one in black/green.
I get tempted every now and then by the upgraded version of this one. purely for the functionality of it. still might treat myself one day!
Just the Velcro is all I can pick after 3 years mine has fallen out of sheath twice due to the Velcro unhooking
nice : )
I love my sog seal pup elite but this gerber bear grylls knife is made good and is a great addition to my knives . no compliant here
Looks like a solid knife. I don’t understand all the hate for Bear. All “reality” tv has a bunch of fake stuff in it. Network tv is for general entertainment; want the real stuff then find it on certain channels on sites like this.
I’d rather watch a BG show than a soap opera on tv 😁
Plz known to me, what's the price of it....??? I m Bangladeshi...
Good , honest review. The colour is not to my taste, but apart from that its good. JB.
Cheers Jim-Bob 👍
Laughed when seeing you thorw the knife 😂
Feather stick me up baby!! It’s a pretty basic bushcraft knife that fits a purpose!
Yup 👍
Exactly; my knife is a tool, and I treat it like one; it is not jewelry. The BG knife is really good, tough, and dependable...it just looks graphically overdone.
Mark Boldan I own one of these, bloody good, apart from the diamond sharpener wears out fairly quick if you want to keep it razor sharp, the fire steel you can buy replacements off the shelf, forget the BG shite it is a really good Gerber, easy to look after and is fucking strong, mine now is 8 years old and cant fault it in any way shape or form..

I totally agree, without the BG name being involved its a great tool.
thanks for sharing your thoughts

Great review!
Thanks bud 👍
Seems like the only bad thing about that knife is the name
I guess it depends if you’re a fan or not 🤔
Great review. The word your looking for is Parkerized. ( Grey.)
Thanks.. every day is a school day 👍
Looks ok to me 👍 but then I mostly use s Mora 511 which cost me £5! So I'm obviously not very bushcraft Trendy! 😂
Mora knives are probably respected more than this one by the purists, so you’re probably trendier than you think 😁👍
If its not broke, don't fix it!!!
yup : )
Folk love to hate BG , i have some BG shirts by craghopper that I have had for 5 years , still going strong . Mind you the branding isn't that orange colour the BG eventually changed to. At the end of the day if it works then it works . Having seen it in action personally I know you are speaking the truth about it. Got me thinking about a Esse I have and maybe doing a similar video 😉
If you can squeeze it in between Olight videos then do it 😂
Someone else mentioned owning the trousers that are the ‘action’ trousers, but basically Crag hoppers .. I reckon it’s all functional gear but with an extra few quid on the price tag so the man gets his cut.
Fair play to him.
@@CampLifeBushcraft your brand could be the "hello and welcome" outdoor supply company.😉
You should at least do some merch with haw on it 😘
I've got the ESEE 4 Rob, love it but don't actually use it enough. Always worried about losing it, they ain't cheap!
@@BurtonOutdoors yeah I have a Esse and they are great!
Another good vid :)
Thanks 😊
Do you ever have issues with it having so much of the blade serrated? Seems like it takes up most of the blade.
I didn't like it at first and wished I'd got the non serrated edge. but over time I got used to it and then began to like it. when the blade is a bit dulled the serrated bit keeps on ripping through stuff.
That’s a good point. The one I have which is identical l, just non BG anymore does the same. Found a field sharpener on Amazon for $9.99 that has a fire steel, crappy compass, but it also has a draw through sharpener one for straight edge and one for serrated that is perfect for this knife. SHAPRAL 101N.
Oh and if looking for any new knives, check out the BPS HK5 for $30. Comes with a leather sheath and is amazing. If you need something to do heavy batonning or other action, I found a really decent knife called Swiss+Tech Hunting Knife with Leather sheath and an 11 5/8” blade, 1/4” thick at the 90 degree spine for only $19 on there. Very surprised and they aren’t Chinese. At least the BPS isn’t, it’s made in Ukraine.
Sorry for the rambling. Writing this at 4am lol.
@@RevanJJ 😂😂😂
I’ll
Have a look, I like knives 😁
Get some sleep!
Looks like it does everything it says on the tin. Like with other Bear Grylls branded kit you do pay more to have his name on it. I have a pair of ‘action’ trousers, they are actually Crag Hoppers with BG logo on them. Nevertheless, totally fit for purpose.
I guess it comes down to if you’re a fan or not.. I’ve seen many a bad review on this knife but as I said, it’s never let me down.
Camp Life bushcraft I think you’re right. I’m not much of a fan if I’m honest. I I’m thinking he wouldn’t put his name/brand to an inferior product. Just a shame he ads his price to it too really.
Good review bud I think if it didn't have bear grills on it people wouldn't have a bad thing to say about it thanks for sharing atb Dafydd
Cheers mate, I think you’re spot on there 👍
Are tools a representation of there owners urs nice & sharp. Mines not sharp n a bit dull lol
Sharpe even after a load of abuse 😂
Most comfortable handle
Yes it is
I'm attracted to it just because it's hated so much for some unknown reason. I may get one
I still love mine : )
mod knife or becker bk2 , mod knife custom gride few mods and custom sheath beats many
How do you sharpen that knife I find it quite difficult to get a good edge
I use a wet stone then a strop, it stays pretty sharp that way. and I use a small pointy thing I forget the name of to touch up the serrated part.
@@CampLifeBushcraft diamond rod I think ya mean. I ain't right good with a wet stone probs Because i dont know what grit to use lol
Great video Dan and a knife is a knife at the end of the day, I do agree you are paying for the name and that's all I have against it. Atb Stuart

I have the gonzo firebird knife the same style as the bear grills one but a lot cheaper and just as tuff
I'm certain there are a ton of better knives out there or ones that are similar but cheaper. I can only speak this one and this one is ok but expensive.
Bare girls?!?!? Ergonomics & function are all you need to worry about. As a gift, you'd be a happy to get one🤗👍. It's still more functional than the Fairbairn-Sykes Commando daggers I used to have. ( Stab, Slash & Scary!!!😂🤣).
stab slash and scary! haha
Enjoyed this video, does what it says on the tin, if you want to gift it, I would give it a home for the next 4 years, I have no knife as of yet
I would but it has sentimental value to me as it was a gift and my first. 😁

No, tapered as said in the video.
Don't own one. Wouldn't buy one although it appears to be a fairly proper knife and Grylls is an OK entertainer.
