Huh!? Is this for real!?

The "Kamakazi [sic]" knives are not Jaguars, and their overall quality is just horrible.

The other basic style is the most common design for a crap bali. Yes, Jaguars exist in this style, but good luck getting them. If you like gambling, you might get a Jaguar (of that style, probably worth $15) if you buy in small quantities from PopularLink. Otherwise, buy your rostfreis from Discount Knives, as it's cheaper.

BTW, the page linked is outdated. PopularLink has updated its site.
 
Yep, I ordered one of the ones on top and it was a genuine "Rostfrei" Woo-hoo :-). Ironically, the pins held up longer than my real Jags... but the handle snapped after a really fast opening. Maybe they should claim that they're Bears :-)
 
Yup.. that's legit. I bought mos of my charming china cheapies from them.. took a while to get to me but stillw as a good deal since discountknives was out at the time. I woudl like to note that the picture above DELUXE JAGUAR butterfly knife looks like the rostfrei version of the 259 copy but they maen to offer the surgiical Jaguars. BUT not the skeletonized versions.

Its weird, I ordered from them awhile ago. I cancled my order when i found a better price, but the woman said they were about to email me. She said shipping them to me (from a state were they are legal to another state were they are legal) was against the law, and they were planning on emailing me to that end.
 
I am pretty sure that none of those are jaguars, especially since all the real jag's i have seen have oval holes and the 'pro' model is polished, not painted like the one you will see further down that page.

They are just trying to make money off of another companies reputation. Don't get me wrong, I love chaepo knives as practice blades, heck I have been through 1 'rostfrei' 1 fake 'jag pro model' and am currently using a made in china POS that is about to have its bite handle break after about 2 weeks of utter abuse.

If you want to gamble on quality, go ahead, just be ready for more of a beater blade than anything else.
