@ErocSD , no slight to TheFactor TheFactor 's guillotine on an AD10, lionSTEEL, or the adorable Mercedes, but did you mistakenly quote the wrong post, meaning to refer to @Steel_Addiction 's "OCD approved...." lock-up pics? @Barman1 , your link to the generally accepted usage of lock-up percentage and description of that as 45% is indeed correct, but I sometimes think of it the other way, as in the lockbar being fully (100%) engaged on the blade tang (lock ramp). While so many obsess about early lock-up for fear of it wearing in all the way, I prefer seeing more of the lockbar engaged for security. I've had a couple that would slip if opened too lightly and tweaked 'em so they'd lock up later for greater safety.

There's just something about the alignment on Steel_Addiction's pics that's incredibly sublime. What knife is that anyway?

Mercedes says it’s all good she’s taking credit regardless :p and she hearts my AD”15”:D
 
I had the Viper Katla with me for a long day of errands and doctor appointments.

I’m posting excessive pics because there isn’t much out there showing how the marbled carbon-fiber takes on different tones depending on the light. The hues can vary from an almost bronze & black to a straight up black and white/silver (just in case anyone is interested).
