Mk 11
Reminds me of the Gerber Mk1. I own a Mk 11, which I purchased in 1978 for $25.00 in the USAF FOUR SEASONS STORE on the USAF airbase at Kaiserslautern ,while I was stationed in Germany. The original knives marked US PROPERTY are now valued at 2000.00US Who would have thought that 50 years ago.

MAC Mk II knife
Quality rendition of the popular military blade from almost fifty years ago minus the canted blade, thankfully, of the original however. Fairly priced to boot!

MK II knife
I love the knife and the sheath. The blade and handle look good and feel good. The only problem I have is that the blade is VERY dull. I understand it’s a fighting knife and meant more for stabbing. However, it should at least be able to easily cut soft tissue and the way it arrived I don’t think it would cut soft tissue without applying significant pressure. It’s a pathetic edge really. So if you buy one be prepared to sharpen the blade.

MK II Knife
Decent reproduction of the Gerber Mark II Fighting Knife. The sheath REEKED of chemicals and smells I've NEVER associated with cowhide, and the knife will not fully seat into the sheath all the way down, stopping about a 1/4" short. If I were standing in front of a pile of them, I'd pick another one, but it's not bad enough to return.

MAC MK II purchase
Well worth the money… This is an excellent knife even if it wasn’t a reproduction of an excellent knife! I own a Gerber MK II which I bought in 1985 and carried during my service. The MAC MK II is a well made copy of the earlier models, original Gerber MK II knives like this are rare and expensive collectables. I think the MAC MK II will become a collectable in its own right because it has been executed so well.

The MAC MK II is a Great knife
I bought one of these and was really impressed with the quality so I bought another one! I have a Gerber MK II from 1983 to compare the MAC to and MAC has got it right. It really captures the form and quality of the early Gerber MK II. I hope MAC makes some more soon!
