Gerber Harsey Hunter?

[rowdy27]

What steel is it? Anyone use/like this puppy? Thanks Dan

Hmmmm. Must be good, nobody's talkin!

Maybe nobody has one? FWIW, the design looks pretty utilitarian and the handle ergonomic. My guess is that it would handle well as a hunter. This place (I am not necessarily recommending them) lists the blade material as 400 series stainless, which makes me wonder about it's edge holding ability.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, guess it would be a better "fighter" than anything else.

I had one and traded it. Not because it was horrible, I just wanted something differant. The steel is 400 series takes a good edge but retension lacks alot. The handle was very comfortable and it did well for outdoor chores. The price is not too bad, they could have atleast used 440a or 440c as blade steel. Still not bad as a 'beater'. Thanks

I have one! The grip is one of the best I've had... the steel is not high end. The blade shape and grind are very useful and appealing. Here is a pic of mine for your enjoyment:

I ended up getting the SOG NW Ranger & am very pleased with it.

I picked up a Hunter today..it's decent enough for my use.
All leather sheath too. I recommend it for the price..but the Kabar Short Black is even nicer.
