Ummm. There's no reason for them to issue a permit for a Ronin Trainer Balisong, because it is NOT a knife. At least that's how I'd read it.

Very interesting. The hole pattern is different than on the production ones.

(The countersinking is more similar to the 45 series). Apparently they had to widen the countersinking in the 42 handles because they were having trouble with the release from the moulds during the casting process.

Ummmm yeah.

Is there an extra '1' at the beginning of those prices?

The Piranhas:
For a ABS scales and 440B steel? Are you kidding? Compare with Protec?


As for the leverletto:

At those prices, the handles better be machined, not cast aluminum (and they look cast too me).

I'm not surprised. I've debated picking one up, but even at the lower closeout and factory second pricing, I'm not sure whether it's worth the bother. Just looking at the pictures, the blade grind isn't at the same level as the benchmades, the tolerances (handle blade fit) aren't at the same level, ...

It doesn't matter which way you count, you still end up on this one: (Holds it up).

Technically, "fully forged" should mean: Blade forged to shape from barstock. Finish grinding only. (as in, not cut out on a bandsaw out of a flat sheet) Bolsters forged to shape. If you're saying fully forged, I'd say liners and bolsters should be unitary as well, not pinned or soldered together. -...

Since the handgun ban I doubt the number of "Special Licenses" issued in "Merry Olde" excedes triple digit :!: They are VERY limited and STRICTLY controlled.

Considering you can get a real one, micarta topped, for $160, I'd save your pennies. Yes yes yes.. I know, everyone's going to dogpile on me and say "But that's more than TWICE as much!" Actually, it's more than THRICE as muchness... ARF! ARF! :P $59.00 X 2 = $118.00 $59.00 X 3 = $177.00 $118 (Twic...

Considering you can get a real one, micarta topped, for $160, I'd save your pennies. The cheap version truly is crap. Even the ad copy says it's not for real use. Yes yes yes.. I know, everyone's going to dogpile on me and say "But that's more than TWICE as much!" The real one is more than twice the...

Do people actually buy things this bad looking? I think I threw up a little in my mouth.

If you're going to go handle the knife at a local dealer, I think you owe them the courtesy of at least considering purchasing the knife there. The entire Chesapeake Knife and Tool chain just closed down, in no small part due to internet sales. Now, part of Chesapeake's problem was their pricing, MS...
