first responder knife question for first responders

Looking to get my brother a first responder knife for christmas, he is a police officer. He was asking for this one:

Smith and Wesson

I have been doing some research and looking around to get the best knife I can in this category. A knife that appears to be more versatile and well review is this Gerber knife. I know the company, they are well known for solid well built knives:



The blade is slightly bigger, but seems to have some added features over the Smith and Wesson.



Any thoughts would be appreciated from first responders out there on these knives, or other suggestions of a good knife. Money is not really an issue.





thanks
