I have this BG version, the strongarm and the freeman guide knives from Gerber. Gerber makes a nice fixed blade imo. As much as people hated on this BG knife I've actually been happy with it. The sheath is quite nice too. It's gotten plenty of use over the years and it hasn't broken or failed. You do have to sharpen it regularly, the steel is pretty "meh" and the serrations are a bit much. But it's a very useable survival knife. I'd take it over the freeman but I would not take it over the strongarm.

[@DeepSouthEdc]

Thanks for the comment. I could do with a little less serrations, but it's not bad.

GERBER needs to bring back the ultimate pro fine edge full tang with the sliding knife sharpener

[@LeeGreenldgphotos]

Bought one recently and very happy with the blade. I am very much a part-time outdoors person so suits me fine. Thanks for the video.

[@DeepSouthEdc]

Thanks for watching and commenting! I'm glad you like the knife!

[@zionstuart1927]

hopefully this is a scheduled re-release and they bring the pro back

[@manowar4046]

I own this knife, this is a great knife.

[@Spinal2111]

Surprised Gerber decided to copy the original Bear Grylls design and not the pro version which was full tang, better steel and had the ferro rod right side up.

[@DeepSouthEdc]

I agree with you. I was disappointed myself!

[@adamcooper7936]

If you wanted the pro version would you not be better buying the strong arm? Is that not a better knife? Good video I have the BG one which I’ve had for years. Considered the strong arm but ended up with the mora garberg instead.

[@DeepSouthEdc]

@adamcooper7936 I did consider the strong-arm but was on a budget. Soon though.

[@grampaeasy3106]

What up cuz! Just got home n caught this!

[@DeepSouthEdc]

I forget y'all are an hour behind.

[@crispydonutcommunity]

I have that same knife somewhere, the rubber handle came unglued after hard use 😂 other than that it was a solid knife

[@DeepSouthEdc]

Plus with this humidity, it's going to turn all sticky.

[@crispydonutcommunity]

@@DeepSouthEdc oh 1000%.

[@traveltonshl]

@crispydonutcommunity Can you tell me, please, how much metal the knife have under the handle?!

[@blindowl-bushcraft-survival]

very nice knife, should be fine

[@grampaeasy3106]

Yeah I usually don’t care for serrations either

[@DeepSouthEdc]

If they made a full fine edge I may reconsider even though the handle wasn't for me.

[@trynsurviven2440]

Same knife as the BG version different colors. Not saying the knife is junk but will say Bear Grylls was an idiot.

[@DeepSouthEdc]

Hahaha. I wish they would have done it in the full tang, full fine edge version.

[@trynsurviven2440]

@@DeepSouthEdc I agree with you on that.
