Boker RBB. Need help, please

[Wayne1961]

Just received my RBB and it's one cool knife. However, still being fairly new at the knife collecting hobby I'd like help from you pros here.
The blade is tight...REAL tight! It takes a full strength flip of the wrist using the thumb disk to open it and even that doesn't do it every time. I went ahead and lubed the knife as I always do with my new ones but that didn't help.
I assume an adjustment of the pivot is in order? Tell me how best to do this so I don't screw anything up.
Thanks guys. I knew I could count on you pros!

Aloha Bro,

Hey I would not worry about it...it just needs to be "broken in". My Rescue RBB was like that. I did mess with the pivot a bit, but nothing major. Blade kick needs to "wear down" a bit to make it open smoothly. So just keep playing with it.

Don't over lube, as that will collect a lotta pocket critters and once those start to "reside" in the lock well...not good!

Ya got the PE or the SE version?

Good to see ya bro, and mahalo for everything!
God bless!
