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.
I have a full sized Domin as well and I agree, it is easy to carry everyday. I have a Begleiter as well that gets lots of carry time. I find that the slimmer the knife is the easier it is to carry for me. If a smaller bladed knife is too fat I find I won’t carry it much. Just not as comfortable as a larger blade in the thinner frame.
I agree that finger choil is needless on the FH51 because the handle is big enough even for L hands. I would also prefer a longer cutting edge instead of it.
Otherwise it’s a pretty good compact flipper.
Which one do you like more the Domin or the Begleiter?
I went for the Domin because based on the photos I found online it seemed a slightly more refined design to me (thumb studs also serve as stop pins, longer cutting edge, backspacer etc.).
Yes it can, just unscrew the two screws you mentioned.
They look like Torx head screws. Just make sure you use the proper size bit with some firm pressure applied or the screw head will may strip out. :cry:
I bought a FH21 from the link you gave me & it arrived yesterday. Thanks again for the link too!
