Case Caliber Muskrat Folder?

The only slipjoint Caliber I have is a black single blade peanut. Sadly, it's a pretty poor example of Case knife. The blade rests on the back spring when closed, and it appears the back spring and zytel scales were sanded like a regular traditional in an attempt to even everything out. But it appears zytel doesn't buff well, so it looks like a kludge.
 
I wasn't impressed with the Caliber lockbacks either. Lots of blade wobble on some that I checked.
 
Sorry about that, guys.
I had 3 Calibers, Mako, Hammerhead and a new Trapper and they were all spot-on.
 
I have a Caliber #147 [I think] 3 and 3/4" single blade lock back that is really great.
For about $15 the the blade is dead center, no wobble and locks up perfectly.
It's really thin too. Fast becoming one of more carried knives.
I've had it about a month and I will get another Zytel/Case. Just my experience and opinion.

ps It came pretty sharp out of the box too.
