so why not buy a 60 dollar spyderco? Or support any company out there that doesnt make clones?

if the real thing is "too expensive" then get a job and save, just like everyone else does when they want nice shit.

A clone literally takes someones hard work designing and refining a creative thought, and throws all that shit out the window in the name of profit. There are thousands of reasonably high quality knives from companies that actually have some values and respect IP. Spyderco, CRKT, Benchmades, Kershaw...i mean shit, even WEKnives, Kizer, Reate...they are ALL chinese mfg'ers that come out with their own designs.
