Hey Folks,
I saw these for sale and was wondering how they are. I found some older reviews and wanted to see if anyone has had any recent experience. The prices seem more than fair and are advertised as being made of pretty good stuff.
Appreciate any input, Thanks.

I dont really know much about them, but the stuff I have seen looked pretty nice. They seem to use decent blade steels, and overall their knives appear to be of acceptable quality. I really like the looks of their Hattori fighter...

 
I read a favorable review several years ago on their 'drop clip' fixed blade. I think it may have been off of Jeff Randall's website - not positive. Anyway, like I said, the review was favorable. Haven't handled their knives myself though.
 
Junglee are "inexpensive" but useable. They use to be made in Japan many years ago, but these days I believe most are made in taiwan. They use to favor aus-8, and many of their knives came from seki city Japan (the "solingen" of asia). Now, most are probably from taiwan in aus-6. I believe I have seen some from taiwan with aus-8 as well. They are "okay", but nothing to write home about.
 
I bought a special forces last week ,made in Taiwan aus-8 steel.The sheath has a shoulder rig set up and can be stripped down for boot/belt wear.Sheath is okay quality,i like the knife lightweight good grip blade shape etc.I have not had a chance to have a good use of it yet Although made more for sd combat type use i'll be using as my small camp/outdoor knife.This may not be the model you are looking at but if you see something you like at a good price it should be okay as a user.Hope that helps a bit.
