ALL THINGS BUDGET KNIVES

I found mine (previous version with fuller and Shirogorov logo on the blade).
My measurements are almost the same:
Full length: 221 mm
Blade length: 96 mm
Handle length: 128 mm

this is a quality set with properly hardened bits. It has been confirmed that Wiha is actually the maker.

No more spydie holes shown on aliexpress :smiling_imp:

So what is AliExpress trying to achieve by not showing things like locking mechanisms, fullers, etc? It’s like they want to sell the products based on fake pictures of the item.

Trying to avoid companies like Spyderco or even AE themselves bothering them with copyright stuff I guess.

Just got my 910+ that I ordered 10 days ago. I made right choice by buying 910+ instead of 9103/4. With my big hands, 910+ fits perfect, couldn’t be happier, can’t stop playing with it :smiley:

But… if 9103/4 has the same size than 910, they fit in the same way than 910 on your hands.

The 910+ has g10 texture and liner lock, the others steel handles and frame lock, but they are the same knife really.

Got my fura mini knife I ordered.

That thing is really small…

Here it is with my cryo 2 (the bigger version)

I’ve been told 910+ is ‘bulkier’ because of G10 grips, don’t know how much is that true. 9103/4 is frame lock which makes it slimmer? I’ll order 9103 for my dad and will see the difference.

A 9103 arrived last week. It’s super difficult to open compared to my 910+. Probably just a bad specimen.

I much prefer the grippier 910+ regardless. The slightly thicker handle doesn’t bother me.

The 9103/9104 feels much slimmer compared to the 910+ (handle thickness 10.4 mm vs. 13.2 mm).

Remove the pocket clip then bend the lock-bar slightly outwards. That solved the problem for me.

The 9103/4 is a bit more difficult to open, esp. for non knife people as the fingers tend to lay on the lockbar while trying to flick the knife.

If you position your fingers on the clip instead it’s working same well as the 910+

For me the G10 scales could be slightly thinner, like 1/4th of the actual thickness, then they’d be perfect and not that bulky in my jeans pocket.

I have 9103/4 and 910+

I prefer 9103/4 … it is slimmer, heavier and thus has a more dense ‘solid’ feel, which I like. Much nicer ‘thunk’ sound when it opens also.

For sure the G10 of 910+ gives a little bit more grip (esp in the wet).

The series overall are very good value for money so buy both ! I am hoping Gearbest can stock the titanium version

While this is definitely true, the 910x also have some slight variations in their lockbar tension.
I received both the 9103 and 9104 at the same time.
The 9104 was fine, but on the 9103 I had to slightly bend the lockbar outwards like Isti mentioned in order to be able to thumb roll the blade, the tension was a bit high from the factory in order to be able to do that.
And I am a knife people :slight_smile:

As from Xatu’s comment about the 910+ and 910x being essentially the same knives, yes, the length dimensions are the same but the thickness of the 910+ due to the G10 scales makes it for a much wider and hand filling knife. While I personally prefer the 910x for being classier, thinner and slightly heavier, I can see how someone with L or XL hands would prefer the 910+ for comfort.

On a side note, it looks like CBSA’s revision of their own knife import rules has allowed them to take yet another knife from me, a Loscha clone.
The tracking shows that the knife arrived in Canada 3 weeks ago, yet I haven’t got it.
I’m expecting to receive a letter from CBSA any day now, what a bunch of BS……

I can’t thumb either of them open as it is now. Need both thumb and wrist flick. I’ll see if I can adjust the lock a bit.

It’s very easy, you don’t even need to take the knife apart. As Isti mention, just remove the pocket clip and bend the lockbar just a little at the time until you get the desire tension.
Just make sure to not bend too much at once.

Interesting my 9104 was also fine but I had to adjust all of my 9103s.

Did you order the alu integral version of the “Loscha”?

Yep, but unfortunately it doesn’t look like I’ll be getting it :frowning:

Guys, recommend me please nice quality, budget butterfly knife please.
