Hi
I saw this picture in an earlier post. Can someone tell me which Ganzo the 1st knife is (Smallest one). Plus does it come in any other finishes…. I like it a lot.
Many Thanks ………… :+1:
My question was if it is the best bushcraft knife for the price in chinese brands. Anyway, we would must to see wich is the best, strenght, steel, ergonomy, sheath, thickness, full tang etc.
Yes it does.
There is another similar one that can be found on AE if you look for KME but it uses different stones, similar clamping to the KME but not sure the stones are compatible with the originals.
In any case, I would probably go with the one that uses the Ruixin stones as they seem to be more widely available.
I bought my kydex sheets at one of their retail stores near me, it was on sale last month for about 50% off!
They also have the metal and plastic clips, plus rivets, screws etc.
But they don’t have the Phillips head Chicago screws so I’m looking at amazon or ebay for those. (or a knife making supply co.)
I also see there’s a lot of the Kydex sheets on ebay.

I can’t really say how easy it is to work with because this will be my first time and I haven’t got around to it yet. You heat it with a heat gun or in an oven, I was told the heat gun method was best, and after it’s heated if forms rather easily. But there will be a learning curve I’m sure, plus the cutting, drilling, riveting and and dressing the edges etc.
Also at the Tandy leather store they offer learning classes for sheath making, both leather and kydex, so I’ll be signing up for those as well.

In addition to some knife sheaths I’m hoping to make some flashlight holsters similar to these:
