The price looks amazing where I have seen it. This one looks pretty rad to me and will be my first flipper knife. Good job, Mr. Ball :thumbup::thumbup:

nice to see more use of the thrust bearing washers. I've probably flipped my 761 open over a thousand times since picking it up simply for the sensation of how smoothly it deploys. precinct looks to be a nice overall package for reasonable price.
 
Look at the lanyard hole on the BK model. This pic shows only one liner. I hope the real ones come with dual liners.
 
When you can get something like the Kershaw Knockout for $50-80 in sandvik or elmax there isn't much incentive for me to get this. Their moving backwards instead of forward here if you ask me. I'm sure sombody will appreciate it though. I'd rather have a 913. I'm into Benchmade for the Axis.
 
As the designer I have had one of these in hand for a while now. I must say BM did a remarkable job with getting this right and it did take some time. This is the production version of the Skorpion flipper I have been building for a while. This knife is very smooth and fires like a auto. I listened to some of the comments about the 300 and designed this thin and light although some will probably not like that either.LOL This knife rides low and indescreet in the pocket. Also BM used their adjustable stop pin so lockup can be adjusted to wherever you prefer. ENJOY

I'm not into flippers at all and, since the 320 has no thumb stud for an alternate opening option, it doesn't appeal to me either. But that's the beauty of various designs--people have various tastes, priorities and interests.

I gave away my Kershaw Knockout. It was okay but I couldn't get into it.
 
I just picked up a 320 this week, you're right BM did an excellent job on this one. The detent/ flip action is great and I love the ergos, very comfortable in the hand and I really like the blade profile. I wasn't a fan of the 300, the handle was too short and stubby for me, but this one is perfect. Keep up the good work!
