Beautiful knife, needed some tuning
I like everything about the design of this knife. The size is great for every day. It’s not a light knife, but it strikes a nice balance between something that is comfortable to have in your pocket and also comfortable in your hand. It has an assuring heft that makes it feel like a quality piece and the finish, including all the rounded off edges, is very nice. My copy was very tight when I received it, to the point that it was almost impossible to flip open with the finger stud. Loosening the bolster did not help, so I finally disassembled the entire knife and reduced the tension on the liner lock. This did the trick and the knife now opens with reasonable pressure and locks and folds securely. It seems like this adjustment should not be necessary at this price point, but otherwise this is a wonderful knife.
