Yep. Once again impressive as you can ever expect to see in any folding knife. Those were some of the most abusive and violent spine whacks I think I've ever seen done to any folder! Certainly far and above what most would ever do to their knife in any situation even if it was hard use spanning many years. Seriously, I can't see how anyone can downplay a lock introduced in this industry that can take that kind of abuse. When I look at the Triad lock objectively what I see is a lock design that is quite simply one of the most solid and complete lock designs to come along in my lifetime, and by that I mean one incorporating as close to equal balance of strength and reliability as one could hope to find. With a performance like that its hard to not be impressed even if you don't like the company or the knife.
