Hi people!
For a while I’ve been using my Sanrenmu LUI-SH1. I also have the SH version, which I don’t use much due to the reasons below.
I like it because it is small enough, it has been reliable and I don’t use it for super hard works or something that needs a better knife.
However, its’ pocket clip is not the best for my use/carry as it is not reversed, either to carry it in my pockets or in my wallet.
So, I would like a suggestion for a similar knife (black colour, measurements around 16cm (length open) x 2,5cm (width closed) x 0,8 cm (height on the scales) ), with the p*ocket clip coming from the bottom*. Budget would be up to 20-25€ max.
In case this is not possible, I would ask for suggestions on how to reverse the clip to make it “bottom-up”.
The “small Sebenza” would fit most of the requirements, but that price is far above of what I would ever pay for a knife.
Thanks in advance for the suggestions
Thanks X3, I guess I missed that in my extensive AliExpress search. It is not black, but may serve my requirements in some way
It is still bigger than mine, and not black but the pocket clip may do the trick. And despite being a clone, seems to have good quality.
Thanks for your suggestions too, Adahn! Those seem even slightly bigger then the SRM. Still, may become an option in case I need a similar bigger knife!
Thanks again :+1:
Thanks, isti242. Your review of this knife was partly responsible for me pulling the trigger on it.
On an unrelated topic, this fixed blade Morakniv stainless knife is on sale for $8.99, after a $2 off WOOTLUCK coupon applied at checkout. Shipping is free if you have Amazon Prime.
New Kizer Domin Mini is out. 2.85” blade versus the 3.5” original blade length. Looks pretty nice. I don’t know if these are new or just, new to me. I like Kizer knives so I thought I would share. Not affiliated with this site or anything. I just like their selection and free shipping on any order.
I wish more companies (Chinese) would offer a Mini line. I find something with a blade length between 2 7/8” & 3 1/8” just about perfect in a folder. Not to big, so it is easily controllable; yet big enough for most any chore expected of a folder…. up to and including dressing most American big game. ymmv
That’s why I enjoy my Sanrenmu Land 811. 3” blade, 8Cr14MoV, I wish it was the Sandvik steel from the 910 series.
Washers, safer when closing it than ball bearings, at least for me.
The next knife I’d buy is the Ganzo FH51, small enough for edc yet still a usable size. D2 steel, I think I’ll like it…
What I don’t like in the FH51 is that strange cutout in the blade for your finger. First - it means it’s a small knife for people with big hands. If you have smaller hands it means that the cutting edge is further away from your fingers which can be annoying. Second - it reduces the length of the cutting edge.
