This is obviously not the same company.Does anyone know Where exactly are Kizlyar Supreme knives made for sure, Russia or China?
 
The Kizlyar supreme Biker seemed a good knife out of box, etc, but after few days the lock was getting stuck on the right side etc. I tried to center it and easily stripped the screws, should've returned it right away.I am sticking to Spyderco, Benchmade and Cold Steel,the knife of this price shouldn't have failed like this.Its my fault I didn't return it right away.

And I'll add to that. I've been far more impressed with all of my Kizer knives than I was with the Kizlyar Supreme Biker I had. Both are quality knives, but you get more for your money with Kizer, IMO.

Agree, I'm happy with my Kizlyar Bloke Z folder, but my Kizer GTi is just amazing quality, one of the best folders I've bought this year.
 
I like the looks of some Kizer models, how well do they hold the edge?I like design of Kizlyar Supreme knives and d2 steel, I guess I just got a lemon.

This is correct. Kizlyar is in Dagestan. Kizlyar Supreme is in St Petersburg. Both are Russian.

The OP never said Kizer.

Kizlyar and Kizlyar Supreme are produced in Russia, in the Republic of Dagestan, at neighboring factories. The quality is about the same. Kizlyar uses cheaper Russian steels and materials. Kizlyar Supreme buys steel and handle materials from China. And sometimes it produces limited editions from Austrian steels.

Kizer has no affiliation with these two companies.
