Well, kind of.
If you order those on Amazon - they will be sent to you and could be used just like any other knife.
But the question is - who makes the knives and where do those knives come from?
The answer seems to be - they order Chinese knives without the original logo from companies such as Enlan, Sanrenmu, CH Knives, other generic unbranded Chinese knives or even clones, re-brand those (laser etch their logo on the blade) and sell for much higher price than the cost of delivering those knives directly from China.
Few examples:
CH Knives 3001 Parallel vs Kubey Knives D2 Steel Ball Bearing EDC Pocket Knife
Exact same knife, but the CH costs $53 and Kubey $66.
Sanrenmu 7063 vs KUBEY Axis Lock Mini EDC Pocket Knife with Clip
Again - $8.73 for the Sanrenmu vs $12.99 for the Kubey.
F3 clone from AliExpress vs KUBEY Tactical Assisted Opening Edc Pocket Folding Knife
And I could show you more examples and find almost every Kubey knife in stock for a lot cheaper on other platforms that ship directly from China.
But that is only half of the problem.
The other half seems to be their shady business practices.
I got this e-mail a few days ago from Jerry Fu, who seems to be the head of the company:
"Hi friend, this is Jerry from China. Our brands is KUBEY, which is mainly produce various folding knifes for outdoor. I am viewing your Youtube channel, there are many excellent videos on your channel. So I want to collaborate with you. Can you make video for our product and give me a good review on amazon? We can provide the best service for you and refund to you by paypal. If you are interested in our product please contact me as soon as possible. I am waiting your messages. Thank you!"
As you can see, they will refund you on Paypal, but only if you make a good video review about them and give them a good review on Amazon.
I thought that is just their request at first, but then I found out they truly don't refund you the money if you give an honest review about their knife (that is exactly what happened to my good friend Jimislash on Youtube).
So, next time you will be shopping for knives on Amazon and see a Kubey knife - think twice if you want to support those practices.
