Gocomma assisted & manual flipper knives

EDC Gear for Flashlight Carriers
26

Well, I am pleasantly surprisedā€¦. more like totally shocked, in a good way!!

I never in my wildest dreams thought I would be writing what I am about to write when I ordered the two knives I have listed below. I figured they would be semi-junk. I was wrong completely.

The Fit nā€™ Finish of both knives are about as close to perfect as any knife I have seenā€¦ and I have seen more than a few.

  • The grinds are precise & even.
  • The slabs fit tight to the liners with no gaps.
  • The G-10 slabs are precisely shaped & fitted.
  • Both knives were hair popping sharp out of the box.
  • Blades are perfectly centered when closed.
  • Opening is smooth & effortless. The bottom knife has a ball bearing pivot & it is smoother than smooth.
  • Lockup is tight & precise on both knives.

These just arrived a short time ago & I have not had a chance to test edge retention yet. Iā€™ll do that soon when I have time.

I am also gonna test them to see if the D2 is really D2.

But from what I see at this point these are great knives!! I got them for cheap $$ on some kinda sale and now wish I had bought more to sell or give to friends.

There is absolutely nothing cheap looking about these knives.

As I said beforeā€¦ I am pleasantly shocked!!! . :open_mouth: ā€¦ :smiley: ā€¦ :wink:

Oh yeah, I usually have little use for ā€˜flipper styleā€™ knives. But the flippers on these are so small & subtle along with the absolute smoothness & ease of openingā€¦ these are gonna be a pleasure to use. :+1:

It looks like the small one really is assisted.

That is quite shocking.

28

The last two pictured in the OP are just as smooth as the one in your video isti242. . :+1:

Great video too by the way!!

29

One of those flippers got discontinued. Fortunately the kwaiken style one is still available.

That video was just a first try but thanks anyway! :slight_smile:

30

How about wave actions?

31

Well darn, it sux that knife was discontinued. It is a darn good knife!! I have been cutting old cardboard boxes with mine, since I got it the other day; to test the edge holding ability. So far, try as I might to dull it; it is still hair shaving sharp.

I immediately ordered a couple more, I hope they get shipped & not cancelled. When I ordered there were ā€™supposedlyā€™ well over a hundred left.

As far as your video goes, I think it was good ; you showed exactly what you set out to showā€¦. how smooth the knife opens. :+1:

32

I looked at them this morning, and the 3rd one was still in stock.
Got home after mailing a thing, and it was gone.

Damn, I wanted to get it.
Oh well, got one of the 4th heading here now.

Is it odd that I have more faith in what you semi-random internet strangers say than other fully random internet strangers?

33

I got these three. My impressions are below each picā€¦ā€¦


.
These arrived today. They are indeed ā€œassisted flippersā€, I can verify that 100%.
Typically I have no use at all for an assisted knife that is ā€˜thumb openā€™. But this assisted flipper is A- Okā€¦ā€¦ :+1: I do not mind the assist at all with flipper style opening.
And at $2.99 each it was a no brainer.

This one is (was) the ā€™sleeperā€™!!! I wish I hae ordered 20+ā€¦ some to sell & some to gift.
D2 steel claimed & due to the edge holding ability I believe it.
Perfect size and blade style. Hollow ground. Opens as smooth as melting butter.
Fit & finish is fantastic.
The clip sux without a bit of creative bending in a couple of strategic places.

I paid $9.99 for this one. It arrived a couple of weeks ago & I luv it. Why they discountinued it Iā€™ll never know. :person_facepalming:

Very nice & well made. Fit & finish excellent. Opens smoother than melting butter. D2 claim seems to check out. Personally not my favorite blade style, but this is a great knife. Equal in every way to the ā€œsleeperā€ mentioned above. Just not my favorite.

I got this one a couple of weeks ago also. Paid $16.99 for it.

34

I got mine in a few days ago, really liking it. Just wish I had ordered one of the discontinued one before it disappeared. If anyone had an extra, I will buy it.

35

The knives are very nice. The orange is beautiful. :slight_smile:


36

/\ ā€¦ Yep, good pictures too. :+1:

37

I bought four pieces. Two black, two orange. :slight_smile:

38

You raccoon.
You people.

You make me spend money!
not much money, but money anyway.

ordered 2 of the black small one.
Thanks!

39

Wow, I definitely love this pic that I borrowed from gearbest:

At first I was wondering about that lanyard hole but then I realized thereā€™s something missing.

Just like an ad for a car with a missing screw on a wheelā€¦

40

Unfortunately I missed that flipper but I managed to grab the kwaiken which is also very good value for the money.
Here is my review with a couple of pics along with my similar priced kwaikens:

41

/\ ā€¦ Yeah they are both great knives, sorry you missed it. Sorry I didnā€™t get more to sell & gift. :wink: Maybe they will bring it backā€¦ I hope anyway.

Nice pics & thanks for the Review link too. :+1:

42

At the moment thereā€™s a 50% off discount for the kwaiken if you order 3 pcs or more. I couldnā€™t resist the $8.50 price and I grabbed a couple of them as gift. :slight_smile:

43

Thanks for the ā€˜heads upā€™ on the 50% off deal!! I couldnā€™t pass that up eitherā€¦. :+1:

44

Their back & are selling again for $9.99!!

If these are the same quality as the first one I got a while back I will be a happy camper.

I honestly think this is the best ā€˜knife dealā€™ I have ever run acrossā€¦ bar none!! And I have bought many more than a few blades in the last 25+ years. No brag, just fact. :wink:

I just got 9 more in fact. . :money_mouth_face:

45

Yes! Just ordered two.
