I have Benchmades and a Ganzo automatic. I don't think the Ganzo is that much less a knife at all. Compared to other "American" brands it's a great value and should sell for $85. Saw a nice orange liner lock with bolsters for $26.99 which is talking to me. When Ganzo does bolsters, they do solid stainless integral, at least on my switchblade. Not the cheapest way to do things.
Plus they ship direct no international costs. There is quite a following on knife forums - they pop up now and again when the subject comes up. You can count on Ganzo being the one Chinese maker who has original designs, labels their product as their own, and continues to provide a quality knife for dirt cheap pricing.
Over two years on this automatic and it's still solid, good snappy action, tight lockup, and sharpens easily with good edge retention cutting down double corrugated boxes. "American" makers should pay attention - some have, Spyderco imports from China and brands it with their name.
In before "its all junk you don't know what you are talking about." Ganzo is good to go. "Chinese" is no longer a reason to avoid them, there are collector grade knives coming from there and they are getting a lot of interest at Blade and Shot Show.
