Is this the new or the old model?

This is the Ultimate Knife with a plain edge. The new model is the Ultimate Pro Knife which is a real full tang blade.

At this price point, it has to be the old model. Several upgrades and redesigns to both the knife & sheath drove the price of the new model into the $70 range.

I suppose that this is the new model. I got it in the fall last year. Its a Gerber knife. Not serrated, drop point, full tang. I has a very nice grip. Sheath is ambidexterous, I like it....no worries....

No it is not, I was very disappointed to get the new version, not the original

mine was new and did. this is an older model but seems new. i would guess it is in the box. it's just an old style.

The old model has many problems. the latest model is getting better. it is okay for its price.

Dear Donna, I had a previous one for ten years which got lost in transit. I'm not sure if new one is same, but it looks and performs identically. Keep smiling!

The picture is clearly the new model. This is misleading if people are getting the older model. The current model is a significant improvement. This posting should be reported to Amazon, as the picture is luring people into thinking this is the current model.

I'm not sure which is the latest model. As far as I know this is the 2012 edition

it was the new version when I received it. I also wanted the old one. The picture is not accurate.

I am not an expert here but it looks to me that they have released this as a new model to replace the original.

Yes, it is a new one. I bought one recently. It works pretty good. The only pity thing is that the outside gets very hot when it runs. You should be very careful to handle it.

Yes the model sent to me was the upgraded one. Call customer service a ask them to send you the upgraded model. We have a lot of fun with the unit we purchased.

This is a picture of the unit I received. Not sure if it's an older model, but it works great!

I simply replaced the old one w/o comparing the two. I did not "notice" any difference from old to new. It wasn't like, "WOW. this is amazing!!" I should have replaced one and compared, but I did not. sorry no help.

Probably an older model #. I have it, it works fine. I would save your money and buy this one.
