I saw the original Tactical's video of this and immediately put it on my list because I really like the look of these over-built, "tank knives."

I put on a 25 degree angle with the Lansky Deluxe Controlled-Angle Knife Sharpening System. I really like that kit. 25* is the recommended angle for most knives that need a durable, sharp edge. Ideal for hunting and outdoor knives. But I got to warn You that chopping them trees took Some real wear And tear on the framelock so not recommend doing that.

After watching your test I decided to pick up a clone for shits & grins. I have two authentic Praetorian T’s and a 187DP. I carry my Praetorian everyday. The clone came from a company called Canku via Amazon $30 shipped 2 days! I must say the quality is pretty damn good. Dimensionally it’s a little smaller than the Medford the biggest difference is it’s significantly heavier than the real one so it is handle heavy vs. blade heavy. The Medford just feels better balanced because of titanium handles. I’m sure if I put some lightening hold or slots on frame that can help balance. Washers appear to be brass not bronze phosphor. Blade grind is very good and has a good sharp edge. I actually like the dark stonewashed finish. Happy to say the clone has no Medford markings at all just knife cut out on pocket clip. No phony D2 markings. My T’s are S35 and S90. Will give it a workout in a marine environment we’ll see how it holds up.

Man that test is old, maybe you should make a new test video after some hardcore marine use ;). I have actually had quite a few versions of the clones pass thru past few years. Some of them better than others. Turns out the framelock gets easly worn down especially if you like to flick around with it much. Not made for real rough use like a real praetorian and their lifetime is short lived, but with that said I had a lot of fun playing around with them. All knives been real easy to sharpen but with some fine edge on there expect sharpening your clone often. Thanks for watching and commenting mate and plz let me know if you make a clone review of it after some usage.

well one thing i did learn ....from the comments is why you chop the little trees down ...to clear and clean the forest of non native trees

Gary Storey i think It is often more a collector thing. I for sure got the original for my collection and not use. And it quite normal for a lot of collectors trading blades among them. And i got to admit there is a few knife makers out there that I gladly be on a waiting list for a year or two.

I'm going to order one of these. I think I am safe in saying that anyone who desires and can afford the real thing isn't going to buy this instead. They are not going to hurt his sales at all. I'm betting he's getting more advertising out of these copies than he could ever pay for. There is no way I could ever come close to buying a knife o re $1000.00. If I'm spending a grand on s weapon it's gonna be a another Colt M4 or another Colt 1911. Think of them as a functional display model of the real thing. Hell, if I did own the real thing I would still buy one of these for daily carry and let the other knife be my Barbecue knife.

I agree, but would like to say that lots of premium brands hustle and work on the sidelines with lots of bad product. Ferrari put their logo on a lot of trashy products. For example they had a collaboration with compaq pc and they put their logo on some pimped lap top and marketed it as a ferrari quality built fast laptop, and let me tell you that was one piss poor pc, and absolutely nothing to do with the fast action quality brand that ferrari like to be. They also put on their logo in collaboration with gaming wheels and joysticks from thrustmaster. And what about the emerson kershaw collaboration? I like the emerson line that kershaw came out with and think it is great to find a budget friendly knife based on the emerson designs. I wouldn't mind a praetorian built with less expensive material in the price range of for example a great zt knife for 2-300 dollars. And yes I do agree with William that it is thievery plain and simple, but also would like to say that for me getting a hold of the replica, which by the way is incomparable with the real thing, made me go to the secondary market and get hold of a real one used for 700 dollars.

dseed You know why Emerson did the collab with Kershaw/ZT... His patent on the wave is about to run out and then anyone can do it legally. He's getting the last blood out of the turnip. I think if someone like Medford were to do something budget, they'd be wise to do it under a completely different name. Mixing budget items with premium stuff always drags the perceived value of your high end items down.
