I have intended to post photos of some old Gerbers for quite a long time, but haven't gotten "round to it". I had the camera out today so decided now was the time. Sorry I'm such a poor photographer. I did "kitchen" knives today, but I'll get to folders, fighters, and hunters eventually.

This was my gerber knife. I’ve lost it to airport security 3 times but got it back only once from them. But now she is gone. And what I’m asking now if anyone knows the name or model number of said knife. This may not be the right place for this post. But any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

That's a 8460 Game Pro designed by Rick Hinderer for Gerber. S30V blade....one heckuva knife.

You're probably gonna have a fairly ruff time finding one, even used.

Not really wrong, but that's a PK2D (drop point) instead of the straight blade PK2 or double bladed PK1 "Skookum."
PK2 also has the liner lock, 2 bladed PK1 does not.

Really nice mag and original folder, with original box and sheaths. Getting harder to find as time moves along.
God Bless,
Moss
Maybe 55 and 60 or so years new.
What's your best guess does FH stand for folding hunter or Francis Ham ? Could there have been a bit of vanity involved?

I was wondering if someone with a copy of Phil's chronology of legendary blades would have insite on the year and what they would call this with the clip point blade. looks to me they made the box too short or the knife too long and took it to the belt sander. it also came with the Gerber hand made blades price sheet showing the knife box with the hook closure on the box.
I have only seen one other gerber with this clip point style on an older handle with no finger guard.
14-1/8 from bottom guard to tip.
19-5/8 from end to end.
thanks
john.

What is stamped on the side of the handle, should be the name of the knife, and can you post a pic of the price list

How long is the blade?

nothing on bottom or right side.

if this was a straight on top, it would be too long for this box.
