ALL THINGS BUDGET KNIVES

I’d pick the damascus as well - if there was a tip-up carry option for the clip.

I’m still looking for a black framelock Zieba G2 where I can pay with paypal. Anyone?

I would also be tempted on the Des Horn damascus if only it would be a bit bigger with 85/90mm blade.
Given the thin profile of the tail, a tip up option for the clip would be NICE!

I’m very tempted about that!

zieba/zebra LDT Knife ( not my video )

If somebody of our knife lovers or blade enthusiasts here might be interested in a rock solid S35VN knife of ( i.m.o. ) very good build quality
for the definitely very gentle price of 59.00 $ ( + 9.99 $ for international shipment = ca. 63,00 € ), should have a look at the Kizer Ki403A1, to see in this threat on post Nr. 1941, and than be quick at the ibd. mentioned online-store. :partying_face:

Hope that it’s allowed here to post this kind of a 100 % non-commercial tip -, if for some reasons not, please shift or delete it. :innocent:

Nice knife, I’m still looking forward for the framelock version to be available at gearbest or fasttech.

And I like your video but for my taste the music could be a bit quieter, just my 2 ¢.

Thanks for that, been waiting for a review of this one.
I like the dark steel frame lock version but really don’t like that the pocket clip is not the same color as the handle.
Also, was hoping that the LDT logo was just photoshoped but it’s not too distracting so it’s OK, just wish they would make the pocket clip the same color as the rest of the handle though….

I’d say the clip is black, too.

Nice! I didn’t know about the Jufule version, only the LDT where the pocket clip is grey

This is even better as there seem to be no marking on the blade neither, thanks.

Does anyone know a good ZT 460 clone with at least a d2 blade? (should not be to expensiveand in the bay, can´t buy at ali because i have no credit card)

Oh, it’s not my video, sorry for the confusion, i was eagerly waiting for a first view and found this.

This knife has a very nice low profile style, but it does not look like a great flipper. :smiley:

Well, if someone buys a front flipper and tries to use it like a Kit Carson flipper then well, facepalm :wink:

So what is the smart way to open that kind of knife ?

Do you thing maybe one day we will see some JUFULE knives on Gearbest?

I got the LDT liner-lock Zebra knife last week. You can inertia flick it open quite easily.

Front flipper opening is a bit tricky; or I haven’t found a comfortable way to open it. I feel I’m precariously gripping the knife while I operate the flipper (with either thumb or index finger). The limited handle area doesn’t help either.

It’s a cool looking knife, though — very happy I ordered it. I also have the frame-lock version ordered and I’m just waiting for it to arrive.

I only opened my tiny SRM 702 like a front flipper. It’s a bit like lighting a Zippo, you use your thumb instead of the index finger.

A bigger 702 would be really fun I’d say but they’d have to add jimping…

My LDT version just arrived with a black clip and I’m very happy about that :sunglasses:
Very cool knife I must say. Here are some quick mobile pictures

Nice one! :+1: According to your pics it looks like it cost atleast 3x more. :slight_smile:
How is your front flipping technique?

Thumb over the top flip, with a complementary wrist flick :laughing:
Strictly right handed opening with this technique. Because you have to grip the clip with the smaller fingers.

So where did you order your G2?
