Interesting. Found these clones in Harbor Freight. I love Harbor Frieight but I'm disappointed in them.
I also find it curious the Chinese are cloning Chinese products. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the Gerber Gator China made?
The Buck clone is ridiculous.
I see nothing but a red x on mine. Can you guys see the picture?

Front page news in the Tech Support forum about this happening in multiple posts. It’s very frustrating for a lot of members that are using a picture hosting site to post here on BF.

Swinging and San Mai Saturday with my daughter. I always try and spend extra time with her during the weekend mornings since I leave the house so early for work during the week.

Billyboy that Buck 119 clone by Gordon is complete junk. guy at work had one his already the guard is loose and clanking around. just came loose not from being dropped and banged on anything. just poor quality glue holding it in place that failed from no bumping. doesn't hold a good edge for even a day of simple cutting chores. just junk........Interesting.

Like your knife, but that's a damn fine pair of pliers. I recommend everyone here get a pair. Best pliers money buys bar none
Knipex Cobra pliers (the alligator pliers are very similar just adjust differently) in your flavor of length or whatever.

My friend I'm absolutely sure it's junk. Trust me I wasn't looking to buy it! I'm just let down that Harbor Freight is selling that shi- junk.

ZT doesn’t make knives any longer?When ZT still made knives. The 0095 with a fresh mirror edge. One of the best BW finishes in the business.

Fell asleep writing something about "Yo, dude with the Leatherman that when loose can swing like a Bali - did you put griptape on the LM or did it come that way? Awesome, want, might do that to mine.
Just got a planedge and serrated K390 Police. Carried the K390 Police for ONE small trip to the craft store, the patina is obvious compared to the fresh serrated one that came this morning. I LOVE the Patina on this blade though, seems to not quite just RUST UP as easily as an Opinel Carbone (though still quick).
The plainedge going back, I think, serrated edge is getting waved up. I wish I could put a ring on it...
