Sitivien ST200-Series Update Video
Published: 2 years ago
There's a lot covered in the video. TL:DW is that the knives are decent, the designer is good, but the OEM is shady and knocks off popular designs from Benchmade, Spyderco, and others. This OEM (Jufule) has always struggled with some soft hardware so you can strip some screws or tapped pieces, which is what happened with the pink one. And they (still) claim that these knives are made with RWL34 steel.
At the time I recorded this, the link to the OEM's official listings for these on AliExpress still have a lot of information claiming they're RWL34 steel. Here's a link to the ST244: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804034022918.html
I wanted to make an update to the previous video since the designer has officially stated that the blades are made from VG10/10Cr15MoV and the Amazon pages for these knives now state that, so my old video is out of date and incorrect.
