Sandvik Puns

For those that don't know SRM or Sanrenmu, they're one of the best known brands in China. The company serves as an OEM for a lot of Western brands, like Spyderco and Kershaw. They're also the manufacturer for a number of Chinese brands - they make Lands and at least some Kubeys and Ruikes. Their QC is top tier.

Most existing budget slippies, like Svords and Douks, don't have clips or pivot bushing and use rivets for their pins. The SRM's a more modern design, it can be disassembled for cleaning or maintenance.

About 3 1/2\" of Sandvik. Designed for razorblades, Sandvik makes great knives but has a budget price.

The 9165 has an ace in the hole that very few slipjoints have -- a stealth manual lock. See that thing that looks like a pin to the right of the Torx fastener?
