Gerber LMF II Infantry survival knife

The Gerber LMF II Infantry is a renowned survival knife designed specifically for military and tactical use. It was originally engineered by Jeff Freeman and field-tested by troops, gaining popularity for its extreme durability and versatile features, such as a buttcap that can function as a hammer and an integrated blade sharpener in the sheath.

The brand, Gerber Legendary Blades, was founded in Portland, Oregon, in 1939 by Pete Gerber, growing from a small family business into a global leader in the cutlery industry. Today, while many outdoor accessories are manufactured globally, the LMF II remains a flagship product primarily manufactured in Gerber's facility in Portland, USA. The brand is currently under the ownership of Fiskars Group, a Finnish conglomerate that has held the company since 1987, merging American tactical design with European corporate management.
