I saw all the knives I've never seen before today at the sportsmans warehouse. I think they might have been called Ruko. They where pretty expensive. About 120$ for the folders and almost 200 or over for the fixed blades. they where mostly camo colored knives, desert camo.a few black. they had the U.S.M.C. emblim on them. and the folders where all named after a different fighting vehicel. Like tanks and choppers and such. they all had the marine globe and anchor on them, but they where all made in Italy. I handerled a few of the folders and they where of very good quality, and the fixed blade was AWESOME! and came with Very very nice sheath.all VERY tactical in nature.and very modern blade designes. no regular bowie's or anything some had american tanto blades with a ''nightmare''grind. there was a karambit also. These knives where very very nice but I can't seem to find any info on the net about them at all, nomatter how I search. I want to get a folder and fixedblade. Anyone know anything?
 
I haven't handled anything by them over 40$. I have a small keychain liner-lock knife by them with an LED in the handle and I've handled others they make. They have a bad reputation here but I've gotten good performance out of mine. Good build quality and the steel holds up nicely. For the price, they seem to be pretty well made, but th enext post will probably tell you differently. :)
 
Ruko is a Canadian company that has its knives made in CHINA and Europe, they also distribute Muela knives from Spain.....see them alot in Canada mostly lower end models with entry level blade steel but recently they have been bringing in better quality blades than in the past.
Sorry but thats all I know

Aside from the promising made in Italy manufacture, the rest of the description sounds just as cheesy as one made in China, especially the tanto nightmare grind - which is a blatant intellectual property ripoff from Strider and others.

These are obviously being tarted up to sell, not use. Probably best to pass on them just to preserve your dignity.
