It is very unlikely that they bought some cheapo Czech or Chinese CAKs and tarted them up with a nice blade and new scales. For a start these guys take real pride in their knives - the whole point of the MKM brand is to showcase Italian craftsmanship. Italian knives at the moment are second to none - if you compare a G10 Spyderco to a G10 Lionsteel Kur for instance, you will be blown away by the machining on the Kur scales. (Admittedly, Spyderco is more adventurous with their steels, but the Italians whip them in the design and attention to detail.) All I'm saying is these guys take pride in what they do and they would not contaminate one of their beautiful folders with some garbage parts made by someone else.
Don't think of it as a fork, think of it as a nose-hair comb !
Been wanting a premium steel SAK and this one is really cool. The toolset doesn’t do it for me though.
Give me the Pioneer toolset and I will buy three
