American Knives vs Chinese – The Truth Will Shock You

Published: 2 days ago

Chinese vs USA knives – where’s the real value for your money? In this Short I compare affordable Chinese pocket knives against USA-made blades, using a collector’s eye and decades of experience to cut through the hype.
If you’re tired of wasting money on the wrong knives, this quick comparison will help you decide when a cheaper Chinese knife makes sense and when it’s worth paying for a USA-made blade. Perfect for EDC fans, traditional slipjoint collectors, and anyone building a sensible knife rotation on a budget.

On this channel I focus on:
• Traditional pocket knives and slipjoints
• Honest, no‑BS knife reviews and comparisons
• Vintage and antique knife restorations
• Practical buying advice so you stop wasting money on junk
