Gerber Legendary Blades, a pioneer in tactical and survival fixed blade knives, continues that tradition with the Yari™. This tactical/survival knife is built to exacting specifications and requirements that premium knife customers demand from a fixed blade. Made with the latest materials and technology, the Yari™ will become a top choice for military, law enforcement, self-defense, and outdoor enthusiasts who want the simplicity of a fixed blade knife.

The Yari™ has a full tang blade made from 154CM stainless steel. This premium blade steel holds an edge longer than other high carbon stainless steels. Heat treated to 59Rc-61Rc, this allows for excellent edge retention, yet maintains great durability. Made with an attractive bead-blast finish, the blades are blackened to produce a non-reflective, durable, black oxide coating. Yari™ will be available with both fine edge and partially serrated blades.

The handle side plates are made from black canvas micarta. Long used by custom knife makers, this resin/fabric composite is both durable and attractive. Canvas micarta has a warm comfortable feel, and a texture that provides a sure and positive grip. The side plates are attached with blackened stainless steel fasteners. The tang extends beyond the side plates to form the pommel. A hole in the pommel allows for the attachment of a lanyard.

Yari™ comes with an innovative sheath. Made from Concealex, the sheath is molded and riveted to conform tightly to the shape of the knife. The sheath securely holds the knife without any buttons or straps. For deployment, simply pull the knife from the sheath's friction fit. The sheath includes a belt clip. Designed for multiple carrying options, Yari™ can be worn inside the waistband, outside on a belt, or securely fastened to a vest or other load bearing equipment.

Yari™ is backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
