First: I love it!!! This thing is amazing to flip, so smooth and quiet, and with the same incredible quality that all my Microtechs exibit. Despite having fairly large hands i really like the size of the tachyon. My 35 allways takes a little getting used to after flipping 4 inchers, but this thing just feels very natural. The fit and finish are perfect as you would expect from an MT and has an edge plenty sharp enough to shave with. The impecable fit and finish leads me to my next observation...
Because everything fits together so perfectly, i have found that the mid part of the latch actually gets "wedged" into its channel on the non-latch handel enough to keep the bali from swinging, mid-manipulation. Anyone else notice this?
The last thing is that, allthough it latches very tightly (yet not too tight) in the closed position, it latches very loosely in the open position. When locked open, the latch can rattle around a good bit and takes very little effort to pop open.
So, bottom line is this knife is amazing and i would have to agree with Mike 100% that it's unlike any other bali out there (or at least the ones i've seen
) Thanks Mike!
