I kind of collect knives and have seen these items in magazines and WEB sites. At the end of the day it is just another tool and only you can decide if they are indeed practical for your situation. I would caution you to pay close attention to the actual steel used and other assembly techniques since I suspect quality can vary greatly.
Also, just because an item is made in Asia does not necessarily mean it is of low quality. Remember those folks have been making some very nice cutting tools for several centuries.
