Unboxing & First Impressions: TwoSun YX budget models (and quirks)
Published: 2 years ago
TwoSun has new budget models. These things are pretty interesting. Liners and construction are quite a bit different than what TwoSun has done in the past which makes me think that this is more of a collaboration and YX designs already had some hardware created then had TwoSun make the blade and finish the final assembly.
You can see this with the materials. Liners are “highly polished which TwoSun usually doesn’t do as well as the use of differing bearing sizes and of course micarta which TwoSunhasn’t used thus far on a couple models.
They're not terrible, but not my favorite budget blades that TwoSun has made, nor my favorite models that YX has designed. Unless you're hardcore with it, I'd skip these personally.
