Good knife in ATS-34?

[Masteroffajitas]

Anyone know a good knife that's in ats 34? A folder? I want to try it out.

AG Russel Mini-lockback springs to mind:

I can't tell the difference in performance between 154CM and ATS-34.

Klotzli are really really very nice, very precisely made and they often use ATS34. Sometimes considered as a European Sebenza (price, precision, quality & handle material are indeed similar), I would rather say that they are really strong gentlemen knives.
You can (if you hurry) buy the lovely Klotzli Sailor here, as a good example. It's one of my top 5 fave EDCs.

ATS-34 is eqivalent to 154CM .The better versions are RWL-34 and CPM154. That will widen your choice greatly.

You should look into the Buck Sirus/Tempest in 154cm. This knife is a assisted opening knife with a blade size/profile that I really like. Its a medium sized folder.

Also, the Buck Alpha in 154cm. The knife is a workhorse of a folder...super build quality. It is big and hefty though so best on the belt.

Finially, Paul Bos heat treated 154cm is awsome blade steel. You won't be disappointed in this steel...you just have to match up a knife that suits your personal preferences for size and design.

More than a few classic Al Mar knives are in ATS-34 steel.

The File and Wire series of knives from Schatt and Morgan use ATS-34.

I have one, the English Jack, and the quality is exceptional.

Another good one, the AG Russell Featherlite is available in ATS-34. You can also search AG's site for "ATS-34" and see a large selection of knives in that steel.

If you can find it, the Benchmade Ascent is ATS-34. I own one and love it, but I'm not really sure if it is a "great" knife. It does what I want it to do though. If you search online, you should be able to find a couple of them. I know that Benchmade discontinued them.
Good luck,
Gray

ATS 34 is Japanese. 154CM is American steel with the exact same composition. I'd buy the American Steel if possible.

Emerson makes great knives in 154CM, in just about any blade shape you want.

A really nice knife available in ATS-34 is the A.G. Russell FeatherLite.

Another is the A.G. Russell Italian Tactical.

Both very highly recommended. :thumbup::thumbup:

Two favorites of mine with ats-34 blades are the Spyderco Wegner and Wegner Jr. Though both are discontinued, a plain edge model will come up on ebay or here on the exchange occasionally.
