Saw the recent Amazon lightning deal for the $30 Kershaw Speed Bumps and jumped on it. These are a little different from the ones I know; it turns out that this new batch is Chinese-made, has a different torsion bar mechanism, a painted clip, and doesn't have the safety. The finishing of the scales and liners isn't quite as nice as the American models, but it's pretty good. My main complaints would be with the blade, but fortunately I have a couple spare Spec Bump blades in S30V lying around. The fit was a little tight, but I filed the pivot hole of the blade a bit and now it works perfectly. Pretty good beater for $30, I'd say. It's the bottom one in both pics, next to its brothers the Spec Bump and ZT 0200.
