Mantis

I was thinking about buying a Mantis MTF-4Ti. Is Mantis a good buy?

Overall, I'm not very impressed with their offerings.

Have you owned one?

I had 2 of them & I thought their quality was very good. I got rid of mine because they didn't fit my needs, but they were good knives, I thought. Having said that, the knife you mentioned is pretty pricey for a relatively new & unknown knife company.

I picked up the Mantis for 140.00. You're right very good quality! I'm very satisfied with it.

Looking back, it seems from actual users, they seem to rate pretty well. The designs are kind of flashy, but a couple of them seem very useful.

I've had the knive for a about a week now. I've used it on a daily basis, cutting boxes, fruit, and messing around with some wood. The S30V blade retention is great! I love this knive.
