I just try not to think about it...:( My last order I bought I think 8 SRM710s so Id never run out, and will have some spares if I loose one, or they get discontinued, or prices increase, or I want to mod, etc.
In hindsight it was kind of stupid, now I need to order a black one, a yellow camo one, and a couple others, so I wish I bought a variety of different models in the first place.
But the good news is that Im not addicted to flashlights, I just have one Sipik AA zoom, its perfect for me and thats all I need. This is the only sub forum I check, LOL.
Well I started out addicted to flashlights then a few people (you all know who you are ) around here started talking knives and so knife addiction it is.
I have this 908. Its the typical SRM legendary build quality, although I feel the blade is on the thin side for a knife of its size. Its still adequate for most cutting chores and could be an advantage for food preparation. Its to bad these are almost all gone.
Inflation is rising in China. But the US dollar might be going down the crapper even faster. It might be only a matter of time before prices go up, or quality goes down, to compensate for rising costs in China.
Pretty expensive for cheap steel in a fake knife. Plus I personally don't like the blade design.
Hey David, maybe you can see if you can round up some older model 9 series knives because I'm pretty sure they would sell like hotcakes. Check with your suppliers and/or connections--they just might have a few hidden away for you to sell. Give it a try anyway because I would buy several of each them myself.
for now I still around 15 pcs MC-962 in stock. and I will see if I can get other models of 9 series from other wholes seller in China. and will keep you guys updated.
The chinese citizen only wish they had the same level of inflation as we do, which makes the typical "undervalued yuan" complaints in the US media pretty incoherent and amusing. OTOH, it's a counterbalance against their cultural habit of saving too much. Costs in general will not rise unless the production inputs become scarce and there's no shortage of labor in china, not when significant amount of the country is still barely above the subsistence line.
