Is it q defect? It looks like it uses ball bearings instead of washers at the pivot. It should be very smooth and easy to flick open with one hand using the thumbstud. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7vAbaIlFf8After reading properly, "blade retracting without even pushing the unlocking lever" <- when opened all the way or just half way? When opened all the way and hearing it lock, the blade must not retract without engaging the liner lock. This post has been edited by biloxee: Apr 3 2016, 01:16 PM |

Two is One and One is None.

retract la, he said blade lock is loose.
so one day the knife will probably cut away one of his fingers.

QUOTE(onetwothree456 @ Apr 3 2016, 08:03 PM) uh oh even knife experts dont recommend folder for very heavy use because no lock quite very sturdy as fixed blade, this one really dangerous le. strictly for apple peeling then. cut guava also cannot Biar betulz...Who said anything about Folder not recommended for heavy use? For me, as long as you don't buy any knives from him or the peeps he recommended, you will be okay. For me, buy online if its cheaper or try OGM.

Batonning can be done most with any knife. just dont engage the lock. so open it halfway throw in a few pegs to separate the split and you should be fine. Todays EDC is zt550, Nitecore D10/D11, carkeys and lighter |

QUOTE(lukescamwalker @ Apr 5 2016, 04:21 PM)  Tried it once and thats it. Never again. One strike on the tip, it straight fold back. That wood too reput i think. Lucky not fully grip on the handle. Scary as fuk  welp its always good to not baton with a broken knife. or baton in the first place. and as always with using knives, always think of where will the knife go if i were to slip folding knives are broken knives. dont do something that a knife is not made to |
