CS Lone Star Hunter w/ Thumbstuds

[45Shooter]

Got the knife today and am overall pleased but it does have a couple of problems. The most serious was the triad lock locking solid about the fourth time I opened it. Couldn't close it to save my life and had to disassemble the knife. Filed and polished the end of the spring a bit and that helped but it's still mighty stiff - I'll probably do some more polishing if it doesn't break in. The second problem was blade sharpness - it simply wasn't as sharp as they usually come. It cuts paper cleanly but doesn't shave hair. A little stropping improved things to hair scraping/cutting but it'll take more work. The good is great fit and finish, no play in any direction in lockup, perfect blade centering and no sharp edges. The faux horn scales are ok but I'm thinking of removing them and replacing them with skateboard tape for grip and extra slimness for an already thin knife. Two things I know some people are not going to like but don't bother me at all are weight and lack of jimping. This is a hefty knife in hand and there isn't a single jimp anywhere to be seen. I haven't mentioned the clip because I don't like them and remove them first thing ootb.
