Every Gerber product has a story to tell. The purpose driven design of this knife stems from the experience of former military men, combining thoughtful design features and rescue applications.
Military Influence
In 1967, Gerber decided to market a combat knife to support the military in Vietnam. Based on the sketch from Captain C.A. "Bud" Holzmann, the concept became the Mark II survival knife. The shape and double-edged construction borrowed from the Skyes-Fairbain fighting knife popular with the elite armed forces of World War II. Gerber's Mark II added a distinct pommel and indestructible textured handle. The result quickly became popular with Army Special Forces, Marine Recon, Navy SEALS and Army Rangers.
