Gerber LMF II Question...

[Abraxas]

I'll point out again, Becker knives use better steel and cost about the same, and ESEE knives also use better steel and cost only a little bit more. I'm not saying a LMF is bad knife, just that I wouldn't get one unless it was a SMOKING deal. I wouldn't pay more than $50 for LMF, not with ESEE and Becker out there.

Short, sweet and to the point.

Another vote for ESEE

I'd have to agree with that. If I didn't acquire mine for $59 I would have passed. Already have a BK7 and the ESEE 6 is on the short list. The LMF is only used as a truck knife so again no great loss if anything were to happen to it.
