Hi there, new here! Have a question about a Gerber I've had for quite a few years. It was given to me by a veteran friend after I graduated from OSUT at Ft. Benning in '88. Its seen a bit of use, he had it in Egypt in '80. I think I've researched the serial number correctly, if I have, it was made that year. It also has the 'canted blade'. I'm more of a firearm guy than a knife guy, hoping some folks could give me some additional info on it. Thanks!

You'll have to use a hosting site like "postimages.org" .
If you've already been here
to look up the age data, that's about as good as it gets for Mark II info (AFAIK).

Nothing made in the 80's is an original canted blade. Those were only made for a short time in the mid-60's.
Here is a link to some info. I hope it helps.
