Just curious if anyone is collecting the U.S. Classis knives?
Great knives with China on blade.
I have a few of these and some to sell.

I am not familiar with them. Maybe post a few pictures or test fly under advertisements?...Herb

Herb they are made on old original slipjoint patterns (hence the name U S Classics) and many are quite appealing to look at. I have not owned one so I can't offer any comment on their functionality.

Is this question about a specific "Brand" or about some of the major brands that have taken "Vintage" names and flown to China or other foreign countries then bringing the cheap repros back to sell them to unsuspecting customers. I have, just for fun bought Buck, Remington, Boker, Marbles,Frost, Imperial and Schrade. Some, at first glance, are great quality but evidently try to ride on the "name recognition" and do an "IN YOUR FACE" to American Workers and unsuspecting buyers.

I've not seen "U.S. Classics as a brand but there are several knockoffs that boast USA Pride or other catchy US type names, on the packaging but only contain really cheap knives.

At least they aren't trying to mimic old name brands.

This one "GOT" me. Look at the stamp on the small blade.
