Hello...
Victorinox Alox Minichamp question...
Is the main blade sping (specifically the alox version) typically weak on this version? It seems to be very weak when closer to the closed position...example: I can just barely open it to almost 1/4" and it will just stay there.

All other tools seem to be just fine...only the main blade. I exchanged my first one out for the one I have now, which is just somewhat better.

In comparison, I have the standard plastic type handle ones and the blades snap close the way I would expect them too.

Thinking its just an alox thing, which requires a break in period...??
