Historical note: This is Gerber’s 2008 explanation of the foliage-green handle and sheath. It does not establish infrared performance for every green knife sold today. Confirm the exact model and included kit before ordering. The LMF history article separates this correspondence from a current buying option.
I contacted Gerber again with a question concerning the infra-red resistance on the Gerber LMF II ASEK knife. In a nutshell, ONLY the green foliage knife comes with the infra-red resistance, and it is on the knife handle and the sheath.
Here is Gerber’s reply:
The Foliage Green LMF II Knife Handle and Sheath are both IR Resistant no matter if it is for ASEK or Infantry as long as the color is Foliage Green. However, the Black and Camel Brown are standard product and are not IR Resistant in any circumstance.
Hope this helps.
Sincerely,
Consumer Affairs
