I got the black gunk out of that one a long time ago as I do with all my Russians and any knives that come with greased pivots. The #9's flipping action is entirely due to the soft detent and works well enough with the right technique. My other two--a Sigma and a #10--are much snappier.I'm surprised, both my Biryukov's have been excellent. However, i did disassemble and clean the black grease out of the pivot/bearings, replaced with oil, and the flip great now. I did the same with my Cheburkov.
