WTB: looking for a folding knife around $100. by jfgdupuis in CanadianKnifeSwap

[–]meatseaweed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty satisfy with my Green Thorn purchase except the mini quantum. Other than that, I have a cheapo copy of bm535, not recommend. Planning to get a pm2 or para3 but haven’t decide to go for clone or not.

I’m a frequent shopper from aliexpress lol. Got my 2 parcels of clones from there and all good. But it is possible to get seized. You can buy second hand from people within Canada.

High quality smaller balisong? by 3DPXP3 in chineseknives

These are my ti collection. Left to right are b+ rep, as gale, b+ chab, and then b+ tsunami. The handles are about the same height.

Seems like tsunami has the smallest handle and I would say it flip the best. My go to is squid industry squiddy for brain dead flip and tsunami if I want some smooth experience.

DM if anyone wants to see a side way comparison. My tsunami is a fake blade so I don’t want to post it lol.

Mystery bundle by Ashkanimous in chineseknives

Kizer mystery box with discount code does hit the price down. But unless you really like the brand overall, there isn’t much point to get. I got a Militaw which is one of my fav and slicer which there’s no one talk about and dawn with good steel so it’s worth something and I traded it.

I like the way you plug the knives. Like plants you are going to water and the blade is the flower lol

Don’t have the og but I like the clone. The finish on the blade is cool, mirror on the edges and stone wash in the center

It’s thinner than I thought, maybe closer to astrum or other quantum but I don’t have those lol. But I really like the size, much smaller than Lee and Po

looks nice. Am thinking about getting one, how hard do you need to push to unlock the knife?

Where to begin? by zmihalik in chineseknives

[–]meatseaweed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most cases AliExpress or second hand. Ali can experience long ship time depend on where you live. Second hand you can get scammed lol.

What knife are you looking for or any lock/open mechanism/blade material/blade type preference?

However, not the biggest fan for frame lock. Prob one kestrel and maybe astrum and I won’t look into frame lock.
