To me a good knife can do all of the following
- not be easily lost (pocket knife or too small folders)
- holds a good edge
- doesn't easily rust
- is not so expensive I hate to bang it up or sharpen it myself
- feels good in my hand
- takes unplanned abuse in stride :ylsmoke:
That is about the extent of my "Pro" opinion :elkgrin: Well there may be more but I need to go eat dinner.
For everyday use a semi serrated Benchmade AFCK is nice. For a lot of camping where knives get heavily abused I have a bunch of inexpensive black Gov't contract Camillus K-Bars with parkerized blades.

Cutting a kielbasa will get it greasy and might violate the warranty. I like the Glock. Pull the trigger, it goes bang. Repeat until mag is empty.

I see you have nothing to offer twice in a row except for unsolicited and obviously grumpy potshots. Do you have anything civil and on-topic to offer about the knife in question? Any actual personal experience with this type of knife at all?
Expo is made up of all sorts of people with different rigs, passions and lives. In all of your threads about UFOs, Craigslist ads or bolting campers to pickup beds, did anybody make similar off-topic and grumpy statements? No. In your threads you were treated respectfully, humor was playful and the discourse was civil. What is so hard to understand about thoughtful discourse or trying to be on-topic, civil and respectful?
I difference I noted (I got the SAE spec from work - PM if anyone wants a copy) is that the SAE spec calls for a leather grip and sheath, neither of which the Gerber LMF II has, but the original ASEK does. Just what I saw in the 2-5 seconds I glanced at it while saving it on my HD.
I don't know what spec the LMF II was made against.

Your post made me Google a bit more and I found an interesting page here.

They did mention that the knife was designed primarily for Army (helicopter?) air crews. The butt is more flat with a "spike" for scoring or breaking Plexiglass and the web cutting tool has a honing rod attached to it rather than the sharpener built into the sheath.
