Review Y-Start LK5011
Introduction
Throughout
more than two years of work in this blog we have seen many wonderful knives at
a fairly low price. Now is the time to see what Chinese brands offer us in
premium low-cost ranges.
Let's
start a series of product reviews with titanium, bigger words. We all know the
brand Y-Start, has had some of the most resounding successes of recent times
with models Jin01 and Jin02 for example, very well made folder knives with an
incredible price carrying steel D2 and with a magnificent design and finishes.
Today we are going to see one of its newest models of its high end, ceramic
bearings, titanium... the Y-Start LK5011.
Welcome
to the titanium party...
Exterior design and appearance
The
folder knife is visually different from what we usually see, it's like seeing a
costume from a famous fashion designer, you know you're looking at something
else and it's not the one you usually buy at the mall. It really has a simple
design but that attracts without being able to avoid it, is based on the
japanese kwaiken knife, which was a small dagger that carried the samurai class
hidden under the kimono, for example for self-defense. Hence the small width of
the blade and handle occupying very little space, as well as a rather
intimidating blade.
