Wolf5391, I see from your profile you are an avid bladesmith and making knives is your occupation. Do you make frame locks? I would love to see some picture of the knives you make no matter what type they are.
I don't see what this has to do with this thread (this isn't the place for it), PM me if you want to talk.
Nah, I'll pass.
But what constitutes "flicking"? Is it flicking if you aren't using wrist action? Are CRK owners expected to gently open their knives as slowly as possible? I swiftly flick (no wrist action) my lg micarta insingo when I need it in a hurry, but now I'm worried that I may be abusing a $500 folder. How delicate is the sebenza lock? I guess we will have to eagerly wait for the video testing.
Lock-up on my insingo is also around 80%...normal right?
BUT, I've never once seen anyone flick a knife with such force. That's not even really representative of "flicking" in my opinion.
I don't think you can walk around those facts.
The pictures of the knives that customers said had blade play look just like knife that Crk abused in the video.
Plain and simple.
I think you had better watch the video again. And reread the CRK's post.
