| got an email from lapolicegear about some new knives from mantis. I'm curious what the knife guys think about the offerings from this company. They look overly flashy/sci fi to me but I'm curious if their quality working knives for the price. |

It came up over in the knife forums and apparently Mantis isn't (or hasn't) been entirely honest about the pedigree of its materials.
http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php/888835-Mantis-Knives-any-good I don't own one, but there are better, more practical, and more reputable knives out there so I don't foresee ever trying one out. |

They "are" on the level with other foreign made knives. I personally would take crkt, OCONUS Kershaw or OCONUS Spyderco before I would by a mantis.
Also the owner is this pretty boy reality tv person... I dunno... I do want an elvis one though.... Funny thing only design they have that I like and the "owner" dident design it "surprise!" |
