I think the sheer size of these Harnds Blazer’s is plenty scary it’s down to the 105mm blade.
The Ganzo G-712 is a mean looking knife as well, can’t be beaten for high value nastiness.

The black would be better without the serrations but it looks less gimmicky than the satin with the blade and hardware matching the black on the scales.

Yes, the steel too. The benmade is better but 10 times better than the ganzo g712? (or so). For that reason the good quality low price chinese brands are so good.
Well, that is a matter of individual preference. We can debate on manufacturing, QC, heat treat and various qualities of steel (ease of sharpening vs. edge retention, chipping resistance etc.).
I would rather own one Benchmade than 10 Ganzo, but that is just me and what I like in a knife.
Of course, ech one have an opinion. I prefer 10 ganzos to 1 benchmade (i enjoy more with the 10 ganzos playing with them :bigsmile: ). For me they are littles toys.
Apparently Ganzo do manage to heat treat their blades well. I guess it helps that they’re really an OEM manufacturer of multi-tools who just happen to make knives on the side.
I’m considering getting a G711 some time. I do prefer full flat grinds on knives. It means they’re good at the only thing I use knives for, slicing stuff.
If we want to look for the most imposing knife I can think of, irrespective of manufacturer or country of origin, I’m tempted to say Cold Steel’s Voyager XL with the fully serrated Vaquero blade.
I really wouldn’t want to be approaching someone opening one of those.
G712 would be more aggressive than straight blades. Spyderco Hawkbill and Harpy curve downwards. But it’s not the worst yet. The Spyderco Civillian has a history in it’s purpose of design for the DEA or such. It’s impossible to bring out without undue attention :
Yes but none of the quality chinese brands have a clon of the spyderco civilian… It would be a great success!! :bigsmile:
The vaquero and others knives from cold steel are very agressive but chinese do not make folder so big, even the gabzo g712 is smaller than the original benchmade bedlam.
