Just got my Buck Strider Mini out of the box. What a hefty knife. I like it. I can't wait to put it thru it's paces this weekend. There are plenty tree branches and vines to prune. Will have to sharpen it though, the tip and mid way are not sharp as the rest of the blade.
Lock up is tight with no wobble in any direction. It closes nice with a clink. Blade in right down the center. (cannot figure out why three washers though) It opens ok (needs some breaking in).
Locking lug is rubbing a "raw" spot on the nice bead blasted blade. It appears the bend of the lug is "bowed" and rubbs the blade when closing and opening.This does not upset me though, because I intend to use this knife. I think I could "take off " some of the lug material so the rub is no more. ???
Yes, I think I'm going to like this knife very much
