Yikes is right .. Axis = :barf:
Yeah...I've kinda grown accustomed to all 10 of my fingers....wait....ok, yeah 10!![]()
BLASPHEMY!!!!![]()
Axis is AWESOME!!
Hmmmmnnnnn....almost all of the heavy duty\military folders, seem to be framelock. I got nothing against axis lock folders, besides the fact that they suck![]()

My Resistor(heavy duty knife) is AXIS lock, and it does NOT suck! Hack, stab, and pry away with it, and your fingers will be PERFECTLY safe.:thumbup:
The only VALID complaint I've ever heard is the fear of disengaging the lock using certain grips; I don't use those grips, so no big whoop, but if it bugs YOU, it's nothing a date with a dremel won't fix(recess the AXIS studs below the scales).
The Omega springs on mine are absolutely fine too; ANY machine part can be defective or worn out, but the Omega springs are not more prone to do so.
Frame locks are cool too, though.
Gerber\Stabman...it's only my opinion and you know what they say....opinions are like A-holes, everyone has one and they all stink!
That being said..I've owned axis locks...got rid of them. They just do not feel "solid"...again, my opinion only. NEVER had a framelock fail myself, but I'd like to see the results from those![]()

WTF is wrong with framelock?? I don't need fancy springs or bullshit with all these small moving parts ..
Some AXIS designs are better than others as well; the Resistor is my favourite so far. If you try one of them and STILL don't like the AXIS lock, then it truly is not the lock for you. BUT, I have a feeling you might like the Resistor.![]()
as long as it's rock solid and attempts to simulate fixed blade strength.
I got the pics to work, they are the ones we saw the last time. Only one of the drawings looks familiar though. The talon hole is in the slabs and not the blade. I wish Jerry would get one of these made on a production level. Of course he knows if he does we might very well never have to buy another knife.![]()
If the talon hole is in the handle, how could the blade close if you put something through it?
and I'll stick with my model T and it's 25 miles per gallon thank you very much all those fancy rubber seals and shocks and v-what haves you. totally poo-poo.
