I recently purchased a M1-03K a Greg Lightfoot design.
Has anyone else held one of these? What do you think?
The one I recieved is sweet here's a short disciption:
It is an all black knife with a heavy AUS8 "Millennium Tanto"
style blade. It has zytel scales with a mild honeycomb pattern. Normally I don't go much for zytel but it is done nicely here. It is built heavy, similar to the large model M16, but in a small model size(just under 4.5 inches. It has the "LAWKS" system but doen't really need it lock up is rock solid with or without LAWKS engaged.
Saving the best for last, it has a Mako Flipper.
The Mako is used like the Carson Flipper but similar in shape
to the Kershaw Chive's flipper.No spring is needed with this knife though, the force needed to get by the detent is enough to open the knife all the way with ease. The detent made for holding the knife in the closed position works very well, Better than most of CRKT's other models. This was needed to enable this knife to have the great
option of tip up or tip down carry, left or right hand.
All in all it's a great knife.
