Gerber 22-01400 LMF II Survival Knife – Coyote Brown Reviews

Review by Ascetic Barabas:

I own this item and it is extremely sturdy and perfect for survival tasks. The blade is thick and the window breaker at the end of the handle is useful in emergencies. I CANNOT recommend this seller however, “Buy From The Best Inc.” The customer service of this seller was a joke – after not shipping my item even after a week, they gave me attitude, redtape, and actually wanted me to contact amazon for them to work out their problem. When I told them it is THEIR repsonsibility to process the order with amazon they gave me more BS. When I simply told them they had 10 days to ship me the item I paid for, they STILL couldn’t manage to do it! Ha! What kind of company takes 17 days to ship something within the US? I cancelled my order, wisely. Save yourself the headache, especially with an expensive item like this knife, and go with a different seller that has their act together. Please rate my review highly, so others can get this warning too.

Review by youth_pastor_jedi_master:

I bought this knife for camping and backpacking. The case straps to your calf or belt. The knife is heavy duty and can take a beating. The website below shows videos of what this knife can take. I knew it was a good knife before I bought it, I just didn’t realize how good. It has some weight to it, but has a ton of great features. The blade is nearly 5 inches long and partially serrated. The case is fire resistant, has a built in sharpener, and securely holds the knife in place. The grip is comfortable and secure. Gerber designed this knife with the military, you can tell. I love Gerber, and I love the LMF 2, defiantly the best knife I own.

Police Safety and Survival 1 DVD

Law enforcement officers face potentially serious threats to their safety in every confrontation, from suspects who passively resist arrest to those intent on creating a life threatening situation by disarming an officer. In the Police Safety and Survival series, veteran law enforcement officers and training instructors Mark Wyler and Eric Murray teach the finer points of defusing potentially lethal situations with a variety of verbal, empty hand and weapons techniques. In Police Safety and Survival 1, the emphasis is on use of the kubaton, pressure point striking, handgun retention and handgun disarming. Learn to use hard and soft pressure point techniques against both active and passive resisters. Use the sympathetic nervous system to create involuntary reactions ranging from a creating distance or distracting a suspect or to momentarily disabling him. The second portion of the DVD covers retention of the handgun both in and out of the holster and disarming techniques in the event that a suspect gains control of the officer’s handgun or if the unarmed officer finds himself facing a weapon at close range.

Police Safety and Survival 1 DVD Reviews

Review by Seppo Vesala:

This is a training film for police officers; the techniques are not well suited for general self defense or even armed citizens. The film has basically two subjects: pressure points, and handguns.

The pressure point section opens up with presentation of various pressure points and target areas found in human body. The pressure points presender in the film are divided into hard and soft techniques; the hard techniques are basically hits and kicks into pressure point areas, meant to be used against actively resisting or even aggressive opponents. The soft techniques are pressing techniques that can be used against passively resisting opponents. First Mark Wyler and Eric Murray present several pressure point techniques used with bare hands (both hard and soft techniques), and after that they cover Kubaton techniques.

The second half of the film covers handgun retention and disarming. In the film, they show several different handgun retention techniques, both gun still in holster or gun in hand. I find one of these techniques especially good (both reliable and simple), therefore I have taken it as my primary handgun retention technique. After handgun retention, they show several handgun disarming techniques that can be used in situations the officer is threatened on gunpoint.

The production of the film is good: everything works fine, but there is nothing especially good either. I found that the film has a bit too much emphasis on Kubaton techniques for my taste, but they make it up by presenting several excellent gun retention techniques.
