For the fixed blade version, it offers two blade lengths, a 3 1/4 inch and  a 4 inch blade on the original buck line up of knives. It is a full tang knife with rubber handles. It had good reviews on line. It's best described as a skinner knife. I do love the profile on this one.

Surprisingly it passes the tests done to it. http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/zJ6IE2j Click the link above to see the specs and pricing on AliEx...

Let me cut through the chase, just recently I found videos on Youtube regarding CLONE KNIVES! What are they? Well, they are copies or replicas of some notable or popular knives on the market. Where do they come from? CHINA! Hmmm, do I sound suspicious to you? Well let me say this, I've watched video reviews on Youtube, and I suggest that you do it as well, and I was surprised by the good feed backs, well some I guess, about these so called clone knives. What really drawn my attention into these knives was the price point. So where will you find them? ALIEXPRESS! Hmmm... This blog sounds more like advertising now than just opinions on the blade that I have. Well in fact it is, I am promoting these knives for the reasons I will later on elaborate. http://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/aeE2vbY Click the link to redirect you to the Aliexpress webstore for more info about the description and pricing.

Hello! Once again, I will be sharing some thoughts for purchase for knives that you might find interesting. And in this part, I will be uploading photos from knives that I've used so far. Hope they will give you an idea on how they performed. Also I would give you my unbiased assessment so far with the items I have. For now, I only have three knives in my position.

INTRODUCTION Hi there! I'm John, from Philippines. I'm a knife enthusiast, a knife lover and a knife collector. Well, sort of, I do own few knives like pocket knives, multi-tool with a knife, a hunting knife and a machete. Of course just like you, I do love collecting knives, but there's always a big concern when we're talking about knife collection. Yup! I heard you right, budget!
