The spring broke from normal opening of the knife. I had the knife maybe 2 months before it broke. I flick my knives quite a bit while watching TV. I never snap a knife open, so I'm a little disturbed that the omega spring broke.
I just bought a Kershaw Boa last Thursday and the freakin' torsion bar thingy broke today! Like I said, I flick quite a bit, but this is ridiculous! The Boa has been opened probably 300 times in the past 5 days and the thing is broken already. No snap openings.
Sorry for the late reply, I haven't been following this thread.
Later,
