If only the blade could be opened with the thumb stud/blade stop.
I ve never bought but one knife opened by only flipper and it sits in a drawer.

You can use the blade stops I do it all the time. It just takes practice and you can’t have any pressure On the lock bar and it will fly open

Been a little while since I've posted here.

First is a new to me Gerber Harsey Hunter Operation Iraqi Freedom edition. My Dad gave this to me recently. He retired from the Air Force EOD a Chief Master Sergeant a while back and he carried this knife during multiple deployments. Lots of history here.

Next up is the WE Knives Elementum in blue stonewashed titanium and 20CV steel. I was fairly excited for this one. I've wanted a more premium, frame-lock Elementum for awhile now, and I've always been more than satisfied with the quality of my Civivi knives. Especially for the price. This one has some pretty mediocre action and the detent is a little stiff. I'm hoping it gets better after disassembling and lubing, but we'll see. As of now, this knife has worse action than all of the Civivi's I've owned. Everything else about the knife is excellent. The grind is particular is really great. Don't mind the discoloration on the scales, I couldn't resist carrying it to work for a few days when it first came in, lol.

I also had a Spyderco K390 Dragonfly Wharncliffe come in. Awesome little desk knife.

I've had scales waiting for this knife for quite some time, so it didn't even make it through the day before I swapped them, lol.

The bluewash on the elementum looks excellent! Nice pickup!

Got this one and a GTX-025 on the way to compare. Haven't seen too much love for the Dirac but it seems like an ideal EDC size and the cover-mounted switch is a lot easier to operate - just wish it came in a single-edge option.

Let me know if you want to see any size comparisons or video. There's not as much info out there as for other models.

That's a bit more than your average mall ninja can afford, even though it looks like someone ripped the vertebrae out of an alien and made a handle out of it. I think that those just came out this week.

Yesterday was a very good knife day. You know that feeling you get when you open a new knife and you hold it and eye f*ck it longer than normal due to it exceeding expectations,,,yea that x4

Awesome knife esp if your big into turning one piece into two!!! That was one of my first pricey fixed blades as well! Unfortunately sold and need another.
