Thanks, Ganzo makes some nice knives for a very reasonable price. Just to bad they're made in China and most are copies.

Another beauty Sam! I'm wondering just how many Ganzos you DO have! 8)

Nice Samm! I'm noticing that many Ganzo models are very similar in appearance, and when I see them, I always think "that's the same knife", until I have a chance to scrutinize it better! KWIM? 8)

I wish I had loaded up on Ganzo's when they were still selling them. They were so inexpensive. If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

If I've posted these before, please accept my apologies.

Yep, those were the days my friend. We thought they'd never end. But I guess all good things have a shelf life. :( Had I known then what I know now, I would have bought more.

Two I've not seen before Sam, and they're manuals no less, cool! I was lucky and just got in at the end before they became hard to find, and got myself a 707, 712, and 713(I think those are the numbers) and I'm really glad I did. All were around US$25./delivered! Too bad those days are long gone! 8)

Jerry! No need for an apology, we love seein' them again! I was telling Sam how I too wish these were still available, but I do have a chance to buy a 719 from overseas that I'll eventually pull the trigger for as soon as I can screw up enough courage to take the chance with Customs! Is there a more perfect knife than a 707?! Great little knives! 8)

Another model I haven't seen before Sam! It's nice, but I've never cared for those extended flipper tabs that stick out from the body, they just seem to ruin the clean smooth lines on the knife. Although, as much as I don't care for them, they're totally necessary to open the knife! Thx for showing us! ::handshake:: 8)

Getting low on the Ganzo's, looks like I'm going to have to buy some more knives. This is turning into a sickness.

Still drawing comfort from these two knives. Can’t stop looking at this Moki. Can’t stop using this Boker knife. I really enjoy flipping this one open.

I may end up trying one of those before I shell out the big bucks for a Spyderco Stretch.

I love viewing those knives, Mark! The Mokis are timeless, and your new Boker just oozes cool! The torsion-bars they use in A/O knives nowadays really have been perfected, I have a CRKT "Flat-Out" that opens so fast and smooth it feels as if you pushed a button instead of nudging a thumb-stud! You own some extremely beautiful knives my friend! 8)

Now that's a knife I wouldn't have thought was a Ganzo Sam! Even though it's not my style there's just something about it that catches the eye! I could even get use to the "Spydie Hole"! LOL! 8)

It's a nice knife but I don't like the spyder hole! Rather have a flipper or thumb stud.
