ultimate survival knife review

the gerber ultimate survival knife, quick run down

[@bobbybrown475]

It's literally just the Bear Grylls knife that Gerber flopped out, recolored.

[@Fishingwithsteve]

yep, thats what i thought too

[@gabe608]

It is but doesn’t have the back survival water proof strip that tells you different signs and stuff to make spotting you easier and what those signs mean

[@folksurvival]

That's a good thing, it's better not to have that crappy branding on it.

[@leroysabre4791]

Had this knife for 4 yrs..never gonna need another knife...works perfect, does all the jobs in no time...and the "hummer" on the end of the handle is irreplaceable and its very useful. All you need is just this knife, bottle of water...and you can go nuts in woods lol

[@Fishingwithsteve]

yeah i agree totally mate, have not had any issues with this knife

[@Buckshotoutdoors2]

How do you get a nice sharpen on it?

[@internationalspacestation7471]

Don't forget the salt

[@mikee2482]

Its a ferro rod. Not a flint.

[@Fishingwithsteve]

yep thats true

[@Logansharp-fw2wj]

I just got this for Christmas it’s an amazing knife and is really useful love the review keep the good work🎉

[@Fishingwithsteve]

thanks

[@King.DAVid.III2022]

Don't forget the whistle on the lanyard

[@Fishingwithsteve]

ah yes, i did forget that

[@King.DAVid.III2022]

​@@Fishingwithstevealso make sure back of blade is against the sheath, or the blade runs down the metal flange top of sheath, surely it will dull it if not careful when putting up

[@nebellivnov1656]

i loved this model ...dropped mine into lake Cumberland 😅

[@Fishingwithsteve]

ah geez, thats gotta suck

No BS its perfect I've got getting another soon excellent for the get the hell out of the dodge kit you really can't beat it , takes a pretty good edge as well.

[@Fishingwithsteve]

yeah holds a good edge, I sharpen it every time i use it.

[@Based_Morty]

I have the BG version and i quite like it. I like the strongarm better, but this knife is totally adequate.

[@Fishingwithsteve]

does the job i got it for

[@stilldre7739]

Why is this better that the numerous fixed blade knives that are objectively better and just carrying a ferrocirium rod?

[@Fishingwithsteve]

its a great knife for what i use it for.

[@Supremebean303]

Bring the prodigy back.

[@Fishingwithsteve]

Dont know what that is

[@King.DAVid.III2022]

Pick up one today $32

[@Fishingwithsteve]

good price that

[@spectermad9180]

You do know that knife is the Bear Grylls Knife right it just a different color..but its the same knife...I go to a Army Surplus store and get Knives and the sales guy acted liked he knew about Knives he was saying this was a great Knife I told him it's the old BG Knife and he didn't believe me....but that just showed how little he knows about knives...this Knife is not a bad Knife people are always putting it down because they don't like Bear...but what do you expect for a 40$ Knife..for 40$ it's a hood knife..

[@Fishingwithsteve]

yeah i did know that, its brilliant for what i need it for

[@darthrevan2410]

I have it it beats the Karbar I also owned one sold it that says it all listen respect to all who the Karbar saved and love but plz give this a try what's two 20s at target 🎯 or order it. You can have all these features and turn it into a freaking spear that's what the two holes on it. 😎

[@Fishingwithsteve]

cheers for that

[@darthrevan2410]

It's a spear that's all you missed mate well done review.The two holes😎

[@Fishingwithsteve]

Thanks 👍

[@TommyT86]

Loving your content of late! Does the steel blade go through the handle?

[@Fishingwithsteve]

Yes mate, it's all 1 piece, I can put it in a tree and put all my weight on it and use it as a step.

[@TommyT86]

@@Fishingwithsteve Awesome, will have to have a look!! Cheers mate

[@Milesfem]

@@Fishingwithsteve that's not a full tang blade. If it was they would show it through the handle and even if it was it would probably break if you did that.

[@alejandrorojas1]

It goes 3/4, but it's very strong.

[@dc174]

They sale those at Walmart 👍

[@Fishingwithsteve]

im not surprised, pretty sure you can buy everything at walmart right ?

[@MikeHoncho884]

I’d have a ESEE 5 or 6 Over a Gerber any day, Gerber Chinese junk. Gerber in a life and death situation would be better than nothing but that’s about it. In a hard-core situation, it could fail.

[@Fishingwithsteve]

it does what i need it too. Not a survivalist just a fisherman

[@freeradical99]

Now that’s a knife …. C.D. 😏

[@Fishingwithsteve]

LOL!

[@Fried_beef]

[@Fishingwithsteve]

yes it does

[@RR9sf]

What do you think is better this or Strongarm ?

[@Fishingwithsteve]

I think they are almost identical. the strong arm has a longer blade

[@never_forget_the_pain2923]

StrongArm or Prodigy are much better than this fs

I could...

You need a bowie to say that, Dundee.

[@Infantryman662]

I would NOT want this knife if I was stuck in the woods. The blade shattered 2 days after I had it when I was splitting wood with it. It checks all the boxes to be cool but its cheap. I bought one because my buddy had a Gerber Strongarm now that's a knife.

[@Fishingwithsteve]

done its job for what i needed it for

[@roughwalkers]

Is the strongarm the same size? Im going on a big camping trip over christmas and i already have a USMC kabar but i need something a little smaller
