Ever Heard of Real Steel???

WWW · **on:** January 19, 2014, 03:04:53 PM

Just heard of the brand on YouTube and while checking their website, I noticed a collab with Rick Lala, one of the greatest knifemakers from Brazil.

Just wondering if anyone have any experience with the brand. Whether with their knives or with their beads that seem nice but fairly cheap.

Any input is welcome!!

I was browsing BBF and found this.

I have no idea how accurate it is:

Some info on Real Steel. They are a new company started in 2013 but they are using existing factories in Yulin and Yangjiang which have 15 years manufacturing experience of high-end knives (either domestic market, or OEM for Western brands).

Laing Gang designs for Real Steel but I believe he is also co-founder of Sanrenmu, who have 15 years experience, beginning with their humble fruit knife:

There are so many design similiarities between Sanrenmu and Real Steel.

Meanwhile information on a Sanrenmu factory remains elusive.
