It's important to keep the rotation of knives up in the early part of 2025. That's why it's time to introduce the knife I called "the oddball" in a post on Instagram the other day. Like the beastly TS434, this knife comes from Chinese Two Sun and like most of their knives, it has no name but a designation. This one is called TS467.

The knife in question has a very special look and that's why I gave it the epithet I did. But actually, it's not so much weird as stolen if I'm being honest. The designer behind this knife is a gentleman whose name is Milovich I think. His logo is a cactus anyway. The problem is that it's more or less a direct copy of Fred Perrin La Griffe. Especially the larger version of that knife with handle sides which mine doesn't have.
Now it must be admitted that I don't know if this knife is an homage in any way or if they have an agreement. Otherwise, it's simply a copy. It's been done before which I've written quite extensively about in the text "L'original". Read it is my recommendation.

But of course, it was precisely the qualities that made me appreciate the original that also attracted me to this new interpretation from Two Sun.

What we have here is a knife that is just under thirteen centimeters long in total but still has an edge length of a whopping 6.7 cm. The steel used is Swedish, Sandvik 14C28N. The handle sides are made of black Micarta and the weight is a low 51 grams. The included case is made of Kydex and is attached using a clip.
Overall, an interesting knife in many ways that I liked!
