Hi all :-) I'm really, really excited!

Some may have seen this on EDC forums. For the rest i would like to present to you Bulgarian made folding knife in d2 (probably equivalent, blade mark 1.2379).

FFG, G10 grips, non locking, which makes it legal in places with special laws for knife carry (a check is always a good idea), pocked clip.

First BG made knife to combine my favourite features. I'm waiting for it next week. So i'll try to write few lines here after few days at work.

For now I'll borrow one of the test videos made in the factory. :-)

Blade width 22 mm

59/61HRC
Blade steel d2

Cool knife, fake Anthrax (okay, Trust) :D

A non-locking knife is not one I'd choose to stab wood with. Kinda had me worried. Still, it's a nice looking blade. :)
 
I enjoyed my short stay in Bulgaria, good looking knife.:thumbup:
 
That is indeed one impressive knife!

Do you mind sharing pics showing the knife's details?

Stabbing is not a good idea really with a non locking knife indeed.... I'm curious how strong is the backspring.

looks not bad at all.
waiting for your impressions ioerror
 
According to their site, this knife is only 29.50 Euros ($40 currently). Not sure what shipping would be to the USA, but now I'm even more interested. :thumbup:
 
I'm actually still waiting. First the waiting list seems to be quite big, and they had some problems with the machines. Still patient I am. Good things come to those who wait, some say :-).
 
Pretty poor fit and finish...
Opening with one hand is mildly impossible...
Too lean and boring design...

The only plus is that it is cheap!

What specific issues have you found? For example: blade play? off-center blade? weak back spring, uneven blade grinds? etc. One-handed opening isn't an issue for me, since I see this as a traditional slip joint mechanism with modern styling, but these other issues do concern me.
