Endura wave screw adjustment question

[scsu74]

I have tried doing a search, but I may be using the wrong terms. I was wondering what the screw in between the pivot and lock bar cutout adjusts? Also, what does the screw directly behind the cutout adjust? Will either of these have any effect on how smooth/fast the blade opens or is the pivot the only screw that effects that? Thanks all in advance. I may just be too used to the axis lock and expecting too much out of the spydercos...

The screw between the pivot and the lockbar is the pivot for the lockbar. The one further back holds the scales, liners, and back spacer together. The first one may have a tiny effect on the action, the second one needs to be tight to hold the knife together, won't affect the action either way. Back locks just don't fly open the way liner, Axis, and compression locks do. It is the nature of the design.

I understand it won't fly open, but the only way it will open without the wave is to ride the blade slowly open. Can't thumb flick or middle finger flick it open. Maybe ill do a quick vid to show what I'm talking about

I'm a pretty decent flicker (no jokes please!), but the Endura series is a little hard to flick. Its just the nature of the back lock. It can be flicked with a thumb and a wrist snap (at least for me), but its not one of these knives that flicks like ball bearings on glass.

Haha, gotcha. I use the wave 99% of the time anyway, I was just curious
