A knife brand you will see shilled nonstop on Reddit and other soy places is Spyderco. They are popular because of their unusual designs and consumerist Funko Pop like practice of releasing extremely limited designs to trick retards into thinking they are special and buying them. These knives are mostly made out of a cheap plastic material they trick you into thinking long is special by calling it “fiberglass reinforced nylon” when it is really just fucking plastic. They are very expensive but if you were to hand one to someone who isn’t into knives they would probably think it costs $20 from Walmart not $200. “But plastic is light” so is titanium and aluminum which both feel much better and nicer but go ahead and keep justifying paying exorbitant prices for inferior materials. These knives also come in a shitty box with nothing else. When you buy a Protech knife they are made of aluminum and the quality control is impeccable. They are masterfully machined and you can feel the quality. They come in a special box that folds open and a fabric pouch. When you buy a Spyderco with the Golden Colorado stamp you can notice many flaws like the blade not being centered ect and it just comes in a cheap no frills box. I actually live near the Golden factory and every time I’ve gone their they have barely any knives for sale. The employees are rude and mostly fat women who don’t seem to even know very much. I’m guessing these are the same people making them so that explains why they are so poor quality. So yeah I would recommend buying Protech or WE knives instead. WE knives have amazing quality control and are made in China. Protech are made in California. Both these brands are better than Spyderco and cost roughly the same amount and aren’t used by faggot Redditors.
