My Leatherman was "walked off" at work recently, so my wife found this on Amazon, made by Flissa, it seems to be functional, I'll put it through its paces at work this week and see how it holds up:

Nothing fancy but picked up a cool little blade in discount rack at the tractor supply. Gonna throw the plastic crap sheath in the trash and make me a nice little leather horizontal belt sheath for it.
Ahem

How do you like this knife so far? Does it seem to be of high quality?

I like it very much. It feels solid in the hand but not too heavy on the pocket. The action is sure and the possibility of accidental activation is quite small.

Well, it's kind of a knife, just very long... Now for something completely different: the English Backsword. Why, you may ask? The best reason in the world: I didn't have one. (Pretty much filled in all the niches in my knife collection, working on a representation of swords through the history of Western civilization).

Reate T-6000 with zircuti accents. This model has the same locking lugs that the T-1000 has, but in a much more practical size and blade shape. It’s easy for me to carry, but skinny Jean/small pocket havers may struggle.

Functional (decent quality steel, blade well-sharpened) reproduction under the Cold Steel label. I think this is the third CS repro sword I have, like the others, it was made in India, but came with the *alleged* certification it'd passed the British Proof Test. 32" blade. Fit and finish is actually pretty good (for the price, less expensive than the comparable Paul Chen-Hanwei version). The first repro sword I've bought that arrived with the blade acceptably (in this case, almost amazingly) sharpened.

Nothing wrong with it in my opinion if the maker isn't trying to deceive people into thinking it's something it's not. That is a great contrast between the core and the cladding. It has a faint Kiku Matsuda vibe.Ahem

Most, if not all, prominent hamons get etched to bring them out, but anyone etching in a hamon that isn't there isn't anyone I'd deal with.
Possibly the last piece Mike McCarter did before he couldn't work any longer.

The grey handle matches my uniform shirt so I may do an IWB clipped into my belt.
