Anyone have any experience with this brand? They seem to have some pretty nice looking traditional folders, and are made in USA, but are they of decent quality?
 
Yes, IMO opinion they are decent knives, Not great, but I own quite a few and I feel that I sure got my money's worth from them, I don't ask much more of a company. Give me what I pay for. Mine are all just users mainly hunting knives.
 
I have one of their brass liner balisongs and I'm happy with it.
 
I kind of think they're bleh. Mostly inexpensive, but generally an example of how USA-made doesn't necessarily mean high-quality. Grinds are fuzzy, fit/finish is ok, but nothing to write home about. Blades all satin. Their damascus is very dark, heavily etched, and just plain ugly (in my opinion). All in all, I've seen many Chinese-made knives that pleased me a lot more.

Again, all of this is just my own thoughts on the matter. If you dig what they produce, go for it. I'm just not a huge fan. One of the most wonderful things about this world is that we're all different in what we like. Go with what works for you. :)
