Gocomma assisted & manual flipper knives

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?

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:

8.9cm D2 blade and a G10 handle:

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.

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.

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


/\ ā€¦ Yep, good pictures too. :+1:

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

You raccoon.
You people.

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

ordered 2 of the black small one.
Thanks!

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€¦

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:

/\ 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:

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:

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

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:

Yes! Just ordered two.

Let us know what you think when you get them.
I donā€™t think youā€™ll be disappointed. :+1:

I hate you guysā€¦

I went and bought some, too.

:money_mouth_face: . :smiley: ā€¦ You will not regret it. :wink:

i bought a D2 knife from gear best and the blade turned out to be a good stainless steel but was not D2
it was tested by a machinist / metallurgist

Yeah, I havenā€™t tested this one yet to see if it is really D2. But whatever it is, it has great edge holding characteristics.

Hmmm.
Just back from a Med cruise. Barcelona, North Africa,
Gibraltar. Canaries. Recommended.
Air flight costs from here kill it. $4.600 for tickets alone.
still hung over. 41 hrs, travel and airport benches.
LAST thing I should be doing is more knives.
Oh well. If she catches me. Ded meat. Again.
