French knife

Post by JACK OF ALL TIRADES »

I was wondering if anyone had some experience with these Laguoile folders. The Chinese are real active

As I suspected. I don't have a problem with Chinese knives except the counterfeit ones. And paying to return and restocking fees shouldn't be on AAPK for this type of listing.

Interesting. And Classy . Does the button depress the tab at the tang area to release?
