new gerber fixed blade "Yari"

[w]

Has anyone had their hands on the gerber Yari? I`m not really much into gerber but this knife really looks great. I like medium fixed blade knives and this one seems to have all the good stuff. About 10 inches overall with 154 cm steel and canvas micarta handles and a great kydex sheath with a plastic clip for multiple carry positions. Roger at Bayou knife works has a picture and a good price on the knives for sale by dealers forums. I looked on the gerber site and they retail for 139.95. He has them for 77.95. Later. Roger

Hmmm... I am curious as to their country of origin.
