I just bought my first quality knife, a BM-710BT partly from the raves about the axis lock from many people on this board.  Thanks for the reviews.  I have a couple questions, though.  I can snap the blade open with just a strong flick of my wrist.  Will this wear down the knife?  It seems like the solidity of the axis lock would allow me to snap it open without much of a problem but I'm just curious if this could cause blade wobble, etc.  Also, can G10 shatter if dropped?  Maybe this is a stupid question but I read somewhere that there is glass in it.  Thanks for the help.
