If you are talking about a DPx HEST folder please contact customerservice@dpxgear.com and lets get that knife looked at and taken care of!

Has anyone had an issue with the blade being so close to the edge when the H.E.S.T. folder is closed? I know a few posters mentioned that they could touch the blade if inserting a finger.
RYP, I think you mentioned that there may be a few design changes for the next production run. Can you elaborate on what some may be?
I am pretty sure Gianni would want a look at that and get it back to you. That's his favorite knife!
I smack mine on a table and it doesn't budge an inch:thumbup:.wow, that sucks. i just tapped mine, and the lock fails about 80% of the time.
i'm not happy.
and i use the sole of my boot, not even a hard surface.
We will announce any changes when we spec the next run. We are still enjoying the feedback and suggestions of customers who are just getting the HEST/F into their hands.
"When I started hearing from other users that their HEST folders worked just fine, I knew I had an unusually rough one. Just the luck of the draw."
Horndog...the only luck you have is good luck cuz you have a no questions asked lifetime warranty. Let's get that knife back in the shop and a replacement one coming back your way. I am playing with yet another production HEST Folder and its smooth as silk, strong lockup and flawless finish. I will send you mine. You deserve a perfect HEST.
