Well I can't make out the signature so I can't tell what kind of "beater" that is. You'll have to spill the beans.

Just got this from Amazon
Cheap ZT 0301 knock-off but hella stout

[Hammertime]

Update:
Got the sword, watched a bunch of YouTube videos to compare quality in its price range.

This sword, for the price is pretty nice, no play in the fixtures, came well packed, beautiful aged bronze fittings and nice fake hammon.

The blade could be about 20% sharper before I was completely happy but for the price I will have saved enough to pay for a professional polish and sharpening.

In the future I'm going to look for an authentic folded steel blade and use these fittings and get a different scabbard, which is nice looking but not authentic.

The balance and overall feel is great.

Looking for a cool bedside katana with 1080 steel and a sharp enough edge? This is a solid choice.

Arriving Friday.
I had 140 in my PayPal account and figured why not get a new blade. Thought about what to get for a few days and decided on a sword. I used to have an actual katana with WWII officer dressings but sold it to fund a wedding.
Heard good reviews about that company and I will give an honest review when it arrives but stoked to have a "functional" sword again!

I absolutely love this. Where did you pick it up?

[blkrado28]

Just got the 804 today. Might pick up another one since they are discontinued. Need to pick up another 452CF also. I have a little bit of a thing for ZT's and carbon fiber.

[GlockN'Roll]

Benchmade Mini Griptilian.

The knife itself was an eBay buy for $100;

the Damascus steel blade just arrived the other day, also from eBay.

I love it!

What was the total for the knife and the Damascus blade?

Also, can you share a link as well?

I hear that. Something about a solid 4.1 blade that is that light.

If yout find a better price than $195 shipped on that 804CF, let me know... seems like good deals are on EBAY and Knivesshipfree.com... doubt I'll get one but you know how that goes.

Was referring to the 0452 there

[blkrado28]

I do love my 452. Always carry it on me on the weekends and hardly know its there. I do love how light it is for how big of a blade it has. A friend of mine actually thought it was an assisted knife and told me it was illegal in CA. Haha. Definitely will be buying another one just to have.

I got my 804 for 200 shipped from BladeHQ. Didn't think it was a bad price for it. It is a beefy knife which is what I was looking for after EDCing a 450 for the last few years. Not too light, but not too heavy.

Yeah someone said that about my 0450 once and then I showed them the flipper is part of the blade... then they said "someone reinterpreted the law". Seems silly to knife guys, but I bet you can remember the first time you saw a flipper.

I love ZT's. They do need a change of pocket clip sometimes though. My 0452 wears a larger 0801 clip... IMHO the 0450 and 0808 need a upgrade too, but I have not bothered with those two yet. The 0452 actually flips much better for me with the larger clip shielding the lockbar/detent - but probably not a huge deal after it has been worn in now. Strong detents are one of the reasons I love ZT's. I have Benchmades that are not AXIS locks which almost seem unsafe.

[naeco81]

I love ZT too but they really need to stop putting their logo on pocket clips.

Oh really? It never bothered me enough to consider it.

I just picked up the Knifeworks special Benchmade Contego 810 that a member posted earlier. Here is his pic again. I love it!

That's a solid slab of knife. I love my black one in M4. Is the G10 still brutal on that model? I sanded mine to break the edges.
