Thanks for the reply Adahn!
The exclusive pattern reminds me of the pattern on the Spyderco Nirvana.
I already purchased the 9103 from gearbest 6 weeks ago and still waiting for it to come.
I’ll grab the 910+ now from Fasttech
Thanks
I’ve got this fasttech.com/p/9535600 for a job student from fasstech at Mon 4 Dec, order from Nov 18.
Yesterday I’ve ordered this fasttech.com/p/9617915 for the other trainee, I hope it will be here before xmas.
This way I like to order knives, the plus of this and a battery replacement job for a GPS will help to get me a GPU for my aged PC soon
6 weeks is nothing if you are in deepest darkest Africa (or on the coast :laughing: )
I have only ever had one item arrive inside 6 weeks (38 days for a Convoy tiny)
My 9103, strangely enough, arrived less than a week ago, 103 days after I ordered it on 22 August.
Lovely, lovely knife, if it were not for slight machining marks inside the alternate clip mount recess, it would be entirely faultless.
They run on bearings which I would call a good way to produce cheap knives with perfect centering and smooth action.
I still don’t think they are always better than washers as they collect more gunk but they are definitely great for these toys.
Right now the other job student is sometimes going to open the drawer where the FURA to just flip it open “cos it’s so easy to open it”.
Seems the knife bug has bitten some more folks
Really i do not care about the “tactical” logo, but I would not have put the gun on him. But I like almost everything else, its impressing design, size, handle, steel 440C, full tang etc.
Someone on youtube did a cutting test with Fura S35VN and it was similar to real S35VN steel so I guess its real. Also D2 is a common tool steel used in the industry, so its easy to find.
I just got my Sanrenmu 9103 from Gearbest and I’m pretty disappointed. First - unlike every other Sanrenmu it came in a generic white box. Second - it’s big. I’m a bit surprised how much bigger it is compared to the 7056 or Ganzo F753M1. I know it’s not knife’s fault but it’s a bit uncomfortable.
The most important flaw is that it came scratched and maybe even used (blade look wiped):
It’s pretty difficult to open, after that ball bearing does the job. I’m actually quite afraid of closing it because right after unlocking the blade falls down on my fingers. That’s my first knife with ball bearings so I’m not used to that.
It is Land 9103, not Sanrenmu (even making it Sanrenmu). All Land knives come in a horrible white box, again Land knives, not Sanrenmu. But Land knives are very good, it does not matter the box.
About the size, you must see the measures before buying. And again, Sanrenmu makes little knives, but that is Land, that make bigger knives than Sanrenmu.
