A Fake Sanrenmu Knife in Chinese Market GB-908

Well, hope your family celebrate christmas. Though my mother never like it when I gave her those kind of gifts.

what is the world coming to when you cant even get a decent fake anymore.

Following is the pictures of 908 (MC6-908 and WS6-908), there is no model name GB 908

WS6-908

MC6-908

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 wonder what's next....multitools?

Hi David,

Good to see you on the forum. I bought some SRM 605s from you a few weeks ago.

There's another LAND knife on Aliexpress, the GB9-908, that looks like the knife in your original post but with black scales. Also a fake?

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.

Hi, George:

It is a fake one. there is no model of GB9-908 in Sanrenmu Series

that is why this supplier never mention that Sanrenmu in the description (use" LMD" instead) .

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.

David, thanks. Good to keep an eye out for fakes.

Hi David,

So this must also be a fake even though it is advertised as Sanrenmu?

the 9 series is already not in production.

these kinds of knvies are mainly made in Yangjiang(China's most big knife maker place )

the handle work may be good, but they usually use cheap steel.

david

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.

Id probably be in for a few 9 series myself if the price is right.

There you go David. Time to dust off the old rolodex and look up all of your old contacts.

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.

david

Thats good news. Can you do any better than $25 shipped?



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.

I'm not sure how much the Chinese like having their food prices rise rapidly, as is currently the case with inflation. So far, the standard strategy for all fiat currencies has been to participate in one big race to the bottom by devaluation. China has tried to keep up uniformly with our rate of inflation for obvious reasons, but cannot afford to maintain this policy if enough of their citizens find that they can't afford enough food to eat. At some point, the devaluation game needs to change. But as long as manufacturers are willing to supply valuable goods in exchange for worthless toilet paper, I'm not complaining.

Hmmm....
