Axis lock flick?

I can't comment on the durability of the Ganzo rip off of the Axis lock. Don't own one, never will.

I can say my HK Axis (made by Benchmade) is still doing fine after a year of my owning it. My preferred flicking play toy.

 

Havent had any problems with Benchmade or Ganzo, and own both, to be honest given price points and the simple fact that I use knives versus worship them as idols, the Ganzos are extremely durable, well made and solid knives.

After destruction testing several and side by side testing versus Spyderco (my preferred brand these days) Benchmade (second preferred brand) and a few other top name brands...Ganzo knives are actually not the knockoffs so many believe, but thats the internutz and murica, we love to believe our rules and opinions are better than reality.

Lmao,


In response, to the direct question, the axis lock is stronger than the Paramilitary 2 from spyderco (arrggg) but harder for those with less finger manipulation ability to use. This is per side by side multiple test/ approach taken.

 

Original axis is very fine lock. Axis stolen by Ganzo is random crap.

 

I've owned a Benchmade Kulgera since 2009 and it is my EDC office carry. So I carry it 4-5 days out of the week.

I have used a slight wrist flick to open it every time. I push the thumb stud lightly and flick it out the rest of the way. I've never had any kind of lock rock. I did have one of the Omega springs replaced about 4 years ago since one of them snapped. The knife still locked open with one functioning Omega spring. I sent it into Benchmade and they replaced it within a week. Another user may have a longer experience, but I still wrist flick it all of the time.

 

Ever owned one?

Understand, our patents are not internationally recognized. Stolen would mean they need to recognize our laws.

More importantly, every major namebrand knife maker utilizes cheap chinese labor, every single one, at some stage. Seriously, this murica attitude is why they do, things are simply to expensive to make here in bulk anymore.

 

Can't speak for Ganzo, but my Rittergrip, Osborne 943 and Pardue axis locks have literally been flipped thousands of times without any apparent wear or damage. Don't
worry about it.

 

I had several pieces in hand. Few pieces very smooth, but rest was into junk. First of all you don't have customer service buying Ganzo, second they're using shitty screws, third that steel is just random thing. You can be lucky and get smooth axis with good heat treatment or junk. I'f you like to gamble it's for you.

 

At an average of $15 versus the chinese parts, put together in usa $250 versions

Many budget minded people will take the chance, especially since using amazon you can return if they are bad.

Additionally, I have had bad factory new PMIIs and Enduras and numerous benchmades -

Sooo argument invalid.

 

On my 551 Grip I just thumb it open. I don't have the need to flick. On the other hand I wrecked a Spyderco Police by flicking it open all the time. I should be arrested by the knife police for the disgusting amount of lock rock I gave that poor knife.

 

Define it.

If integrity is buy stamped "made in murica" with chinese slave labor parts


Or buy chinese using murican designs



I see no integrity in either.

Tis why I have been of late NOT buying many new knives and switching my gears to adopt a different approach


Btw, I do hope people are not whining to mods versus being men and simply giving legitimate responses.

 

I think you'll find that supporting counterfeiters doesn't play well here. Also accuracy in your statements helps to increase the legitimacy of your words. Every major manufacturer does not use Chinese labor. Try not to say things that aren't true. Talk about invalid argument......

 

I know that Ganzo has clients but I don't think that many of them are knife enthusiasts, they just need as cheap tool as possible and they never heard about Benchmade. But we're in the place rather for enthusiasts.

 

Lmao...

Benchmade/ chinese parts and in some models completely chinese made
Spyderco/ chinese parts et al.,
Crkt/ same
Kershaw/zt - same
Buck - all has been for year's now
Schrade - same


Shall i continue?

Seriously, I am using facts.


Five seconds on any major blade shop will show you that.

As for others feelings, youll find I dont care. And since counterfeiting by definition requires adherence to international or national laws, it isnt...ganzo is their own brand. They are not tagging them as something they are not, which if you actually had one you would know.


"Facts require evidence, which I have, and you are ignoring"

 

Quoted for posterity.

 

Post the links to prove your assertions. I would especially like the link that shows BUCK is all Chinese made.

 

The BM Axis is great never failed me on any knife, 940's, 943, many grips. The Ritter is one of my favorite folders and is on me now, fun knife to play with. Love the Axis lock.

 

Nice

 

Would you like their company direct links or sales links?

And seriously, lmao
