LNSR11AOS: SR-11A OS Folding Knife, Orange Aluminum

LionSteel

The SR-11 represents the evolution of the historic SR-1 model, winner of the Most Innovative Imported Design at BLADE Show 2010. The additional, improved design features include the flipper opening with ball bearing pivot system - two ball bearings facilitating the opening and closing of the blade - and a tungsten carbide window breaker. Moreover, as its predecessor did, the SR-11 features a Rotoblock system, which blocks the frame in the open position allowing the user to use the design without fear of unlocking the blade, no matter what. The single piece aluminum frame is a unique piece, which is also available in titanium, completely worked with 4-axis machining for additional grip. The replaceable lockbar insert is made of stainless steel in order to avoid wear of the aluminum frame body. The deep carry bayonet style pocket clip is reversible and can be mounted on both sides for ambidextrous tip-up carry. This is an excellent design showing the continuing improvements LionSteel makes to their products to always keep on the cutting edge within the industry.

Superb Knife with one problem
This is a superb knife. The tolerances are exact. It flips beautifully. The blade steel is excellent and the lock up is tight. The knife is solid, light, and firm in the hand. I liked it enough to buy my son one. The one problem is this: the screws that retain the stainless steel block at the end of the lockbar can wiggle loose, and if they do, good luck finding replacements. No one seems to have any and Lionsteel is unresponsive about selling you any more. If you do get one of these, do yourself a favor and put locktite on the screws. Once they're gone, you're hosed--with just one screw, your lovely knife will neither flip nor lock properly.
