Dang, my Sanrenmu 7010 (710) frame lock broke

True… but it is a very simple fix, as Adahn pointed out.

Anybody know where I can find an 810 with a Sandvik blade?? I am drawning a blank so far.

Thanks for the link…. They do have them.

I just can’t read 99% of it or figure out if their website has a’ translator’ where I can change it to English to see if they ship to the USA.

Here’s the Google-translated site.

In the future, just enter the URL into Google Translate, then click on the link on the right hand side.

@ Flying Luminosity …. Thank you for that link & info… I had no idea.

It’s a real shame the only 7010’s that are still available have annoying designs on them, flowers or fireballs, yuck!

That fireball has a Jaguar (or Panther or w/e) in it!
That’s cool, isn’t it?

But maybe you’d like the SRM 7129 more?

That’s a perfectly nice knife, ruined by the dragon

And as a side note, never trust a knife reviewer with a plaster on his finger

Go the 910 it’s on sale there.

Personally I’d go the Ganzo latest D2 models.
Better steel.
Thoigh I don’t like the straight sided knife handles to work with.
Loose grip. Wet or greasy.
TOO easy for hand to slide down onto cutting edge in my eyes.
I never but any knife without a guard or tang built in to handle…

Well, if he’s a knifemaker or modder or knife sharpener than I wouldn’t mind that, working with sharp objects usually brings to light some juice of life.

But I agree, the dragon is somewhat cheesy even though I wouldn’t mind if this knife was available in a bigger version.
(Well there is, the Ruike P801 which is a flipper and costs too much for what we’re used to pay for a Sanrenmu made knife.)

I’d like to see the scale before SRM’s hand sanding (the lines where not straight), just stamped in the dragon might look better.

polished and stonewashed

I didn’t really like the dragon so I used the scrap wheel cover from a wheelchair on job and made a new front scale.

I should really invest more time into better pictures…

Thank you

I am not really a knife guy, but after reading this thread I bought two models. The 7010 and the 1161. I can not wait to try them out, though mainly I will cut cardboard with them so I will be sure to sharpen them often.

cayman · 2019-07-22T19:15:06.000Z

Have a few 710 and 7010s. They held up so far, but I am not really using them very often.
The silver one with the nail file is a model I never had though.

Mark_M · 2019-07-22T19:25:01.000Z

Nail file or grip?

cayman · 2019-07-22T20:00:00.000Z

This one, has a nail file on the scales:

Mark_M · 2019-07-22T20:02:12.000Z

That isn’t just for grip?

cayman · 2019-07-22T20:05:18.000Z

It is widely described and sold as a “nail file pattern” on the handle:

I don’t think anybody would use it for that… but that is what it is

This is what I love about Asian product design/engineering and manufacturing… they come up with ideas that really stand out.

Mark_M · 2019-07-22T20:26:57.000Z

That is hilarious.
