Action Figure Gerber MT.
on: February 05, 2018, 06:50:37 PM
I noticed this on eBay. Apparently, an action figure depicting a member of the Hong Kong PD Special Duties Unit has a Gerber pouch on his leg. However a photo of his gear load-out shows the pouch contains the 1/6 scale  LM WAVE that is often seen sold by itself.A bit of major oversight on the manufacturer's part, though it isn't entirely unrealistic, as I'm sure I'm not the only one who carries brands in the sheath other than what's on the pouch flap.







Quite frankly, I think it would be cool if Gerber themselves started making miniature versions of the knives and tools they sell to the military--Mark II, MP600, ASEK, Strong Arm, etc.  Of course, they probably wouldn't sell well.

Wait, the MT folds and unfolds properly?
I would have gone crazy with this if I had it as a kid.  :o

That's very fun for a toy, very complete set.
Thanks for posting!
 :tu:

I am guilty of carrying MTs on Gerber sheaths, mostly the MP700 sheath (for big SAKs like Champion, Handyman or Swischamp) and the big, MP600 series hseaths for VIc Spirit, LM Wave, ST300, and SOGs.

They are my favorite synthetic sheaths that are non-leather (for leather I go old SOG and old Leatherman always) and also my favorite velcro (as opposed to snap or button) sheaths.   :salute:

My MP700 today, for instance, is riding in a Taylor Brands sheath,
and the Vic Soldier is on a Large SOG Leather sheath

    :ahhh
