Angus Campbell's Review of Gerber Bear Grylls Ultra Compact Fixed Blade Knife - 6.25" OAL
Starting with the hard plastic sheath - way, way too bulky. Detention is rubbish, the knife falls out with every least little bump. Plan to make a kydex sheath if you want to carry this.
As for the knife, note that it is a really short/steep clip point that is really not for stabbing, and the geometry suits small hands. As in the hand size of a child. The thumb indent is too close to the hand grip for even medium size hands of a grown up. That being said, this is a durable full tang construction and with a half decent sheath would make a reasonable starter for a child if you wanted a light fixed blade without a sharply pointed tip.
