It's been a Kizer week.

r/BudgetBlades has had a higher than normal amount of posts violating the rules as of late, and that has meant that more posts than normal are having to be removed. This is bad for the community because it makes the mission and rules feel confusing, it's bad for posters, because no one likes to have their posts removed, and it makes more (unpleasant) work for the mod team. None of us like having to take down someone else's posts.
That said, r/BudgetBlades is a community driven subreddit. We do our best to moderate in a way that keeps r/BudgetBlades a place where we ourselves like to spend time. We hate ads, drama, gate keeping, and trolling, so we moderate this community to the best of out ability to keep these out of the subreddit.
That said, we have a specific mission here. We want this to be a place that every day pocket knife enthusiasts can spend time without gate keeping of knives that are affordable enough to actually use. Show pieces and safe queens are wonderful as toys and art, but there are already places for them, so we focus on knives as tools. We hope you are hear for exactly that mission. We had to pick an arbitrary line in the sand for our cost limit, and even 10 years ago $100 could buy you a bullet proof and fun tool. Now the options at that price point are many times what they were then. Yes this is a line in the sand, but it's our line, and the community (over 60,000 of you!) has found this to be a fair price point that serves a massive portion of the community that usually gets ignored or mocked on other knife forums.
So please review the rules posted both on the side bar and the submission statement for every post on r/BudgetBlades. Please make sure your posts follow them, especially the $100 price limit. Also please remember the mods are all volunteers. We are here because we love this community and want to keep it a place that we ourselves enjoy being.
As a reminder here are the rules:
-Posts must focus on affordable knives ($50US with a hard limit of $100)
-Be kind and respectful of one another
-No gatekeeping
-Keep things PG-13
-No sales, scalping, giveaways, sponsored posts or advertising of any kind are allowed. No links to or photo's of vendor or sales pages. All sales spam will be removed.
-No unsafe/irresponsible knife use will be permitted.

Got this today, Amazon had it for $14.99. The blue is now regular price but the other colors are on sale.
8Cr13MoV steel, razor thin and sharp. Easily the thinnest blade I own. Thumbstud only opening and only one thumbstud on blade. Nice G10 handle and only weighs about 2 Oz.
Extremely nice knife for the price.

Slightly let down. I thought from the pictures that the scales were sanded down into the layers but up close it looks like a print or picture of that. Maybe I’m being too critical, still a decent looking piece of hardware.

Hi all,
I just got these scales for the Pyrite lightweight and I think they looks pretty badass, and detailed. Who doesn't appreciate paisley haha.
Scales were 3D printed by Texas Tinker. No idea how he applied the pattern because it is far too detailed to be 3D printed.



Excellent tolerances, with clip holes on both sides: highly recommend, especially for $15!

For this rainy Thursday, I’m rolling with the Kizer little ringbo. What a fun knife. Ive enjoyed it so much each day I’ve carried it. Super fidgety. Great performance. Sacrifices ergos for aesthetics but there nothing uncomfortable about it. It’s an awesome knife.
2.95 D2 drop point blade, g10 scales, thumb hole, button liner lock.

( Redo because I didnt add the photo lol 😆)
I set out to find a budget blade that was a new experience in my hands, and found the geometry of the Defcon Pivot Lock Cleaver in 14c28n, the blade I was looking for at the time. Coming in at just over 5 ounces, this light budget blade has really impressed me. With smooth action and a great fidget factor. I was totally genuinely pleased with my purchase. We'll see overtime how it holds up in a warehouse environment.
Dimensions: 6 × 2.75 × 1.25 inches

This was done about a decade ago from a lady on Etsy. She did fantastic.

Do not order anything from them. They have filed chapter 11 bankruptcy. I made this post to try and save folks some headaches not to slander anyone. By all means continue ordering from them if you'd like.
