I just got a couple of these late last week. I am really impressed with the whole "package" so far. The knives come in a pretty nice presentation box that is protected with a white outer box, and include a small cloth to keep the knife wiped down. The knives themselves are substantial, with fit and finish that is outstanding for the price, and rivals knives costing 3 times as much. I think the quality of materials throughout are still behind the offerings from domestics like Queen or Case, but these are built as well as just about any production slipjoints you will find.
I have the 3.5" single blade Gunstock, and the 3.75" Serpintine Whittler (3 blades w/split spring). Both in what they call Brown Stag, which appears to be stained bone. The scales are perfectly fitted on both knives.
Both of these (and I assume the rest of this line) have half-stops, and nice walk and talk. The springs are all flush open and closed, with the gunstock being slightly proud in the half position. Pull is pretty firm, on par with the GEC knives I have handled, borderline nail-breakers. That being said they are all smooth, and have ZERO play when opened. All blades are "hair shaving" sharp. Not as sharp as I like them, but they will shave arm hair.
The nickle silver bolsters are slanted, lined, and pinched but the finish in the crease of the pinch has the look of poorly plated chrome. Kind of blistery if studied under the right light, but that goes to what I said about the actual quality of materials.
I have no idea how much first class materials would add to the production cost, but those guys have figured out how to mass produce a QUALITY 3.75", 3 blade, split spring knife with pinched, slanted, stamped/lined bolsters, and real nice bone scales, that cost me $16 to my door (and the dollar ain't that strong right now).
Here are a few pics I snapped. They show the Colts alongside my 3.5" Queen Trapper for size comparison.
