Spyderco Police 4 G-10 Folding Knife

I don’t see any option on this listing of not receiving any sort of case and being able to purchase this knife for $170. Amazon Prime is selling the Police 4 for $188.45 with free shipping from Amazon itself not another vendor, Blade HQ is selling this model for $201 with free shipping, Knife Center for $201.50 with free shipping. How is MassDrop offering this knife at this price being any sort of a deal or reward for its members purchasing this model at this price? The idea of purchasing in mass quantities is for the members to receive a deal. I see no deal here.

You didn't get lucky, you just got some ZT M390. I've always rated CPM 20CV as a bit better than M390, but ot occurred to me a while ago that that may be because all the knives I own with 20CV, save for a relatively new Strider, are ZTa. And they just seem to do everything very well. Also, the majority of my knives with M390 blades are Microtechs, and while they have the most amazing hand-ground bevels on them, so that the blades are literally sharp like razor blades, the fineness of the cutting edge means that razor sharpness doesn't last as long as it would on a nice, beefy ZT blade. So maybe my slight preference for 20CV comes down to comparing apples to oranges by the measure of which one makes better pie. So to speak. I'd love to get my hands on some ZT-made M390 with an identical blade shape to one of their knives with 20CV for a true comparison. High quality problems for sure; hard to even picture the days in the when people went thought AUS 8 was a great blade steel.

Just checked. You’re right. As of now, it’s even cheaper on Amazon. And it’s being sold by Amz, making it very unlikely it will be fake.
