Reddit mentions of Gerber Bear Grylls Folding Sheath Knife, Serrated Edge [31-000752]

Have you tried Googling the sports team to see who the best players are from that team? Or maybe a team captain?

As far as survival kits, it depends on the person honestly. I know that my one friend would LOVE a kit (even if he doesn't ever use it) but some people might find it stupid because of the fact that they will never use it.

However, maybe a single item used for survival that has a lot of use potential like a "survival" knife could be cool? I'm sure everyone has a use for a knife in their daily lives. If he turns out to be outdoorsy then it could be an awesome gift, and if he's not outdoorsy I'm sure he will need a knife in his life from time to time.

This knife from my "for him" list would go great with all of the outdoor things you have on your list. Perfect for when you go camping.

I carry one of those every day and have another one just for hunting. Works wonders and has never failed me after hard use. Plus, if you drop it in the woods or whatever, you are not out tons of money.

I got the gerber Bear Grylls folder for $25 and it has stood up to everything I've thrown at it. I have the 50/50 blade but it's big enough to have a good cutting area, doesn't have a pocket clip but isn't so large that it bothers me. I think they have a smaller one with a pocket clip if it's that important. Oh and the serrations on it have stood up to a ton of abuse up to cutting through small gauge wire with no maintenance

With pocket clip

Both in your price range

I got this thing as a gift a few years ago as part of a "survival kit" from a relative. I threw it in my tackle box thinking I'd abuse it for a day or two before it broke and I'd be rid of it. I don't rinse it, don't sharpen it, just wait for it to die but it just won't. My fishing buddies laugh at me and call me Bear Grylls Superfan. I swear the thing is cursed by a genie or something.

For the Gerber GB Knife shown in the thumbnail (and he links to) he says

> Its nice and compact and folds up to fit in your pocket

This is incorrect. Wrong knife. This is fixed blade with sheath. You can tell because of the holes at the top of the handle where the blade starts. This is to tie it off as a spear.

he(she?) probably meant this knife?

Mora Bushcraft

No nonsense knife great for camping, cleaning fish/small game etc. 40 Dollars for a solid knife that'll hold up to most anything.

Ontario SP1

If you're more into the military style knives but don't have more than $60 to shell out for a KABAR, Ontario makes decent knives for the price.

Gerber BG Folder

Yes, it's a branded knife but that doesn't really matter. It's a decent knife for the price, especially if you're new to knives and you want to mess around with it without fear of breaking something expensive. Also, this particular one is a folding knife whereas the first two are fixed blade.

The blade is not UNDER 4 inches, but it does max at that. Also, don't be picky about brands. Gerber might not be made in america, but the knives are just as good, if not better. Its all made by humans.
