Compression lock question

[Shmackey]

Does the Compression lock retain the blade in a closed position like a lockback (if you open it, say, 10 degrees, it snaps back closed) or like a linerlock (if you open it more than just a little, you pass the detent and it's open)?

Hi Shmackey,

It's more like a linerlock where the detent is overcome and the blade is free.
