fast opening sebenza?

[MORIMOTOM]

Just the placement of the "thumbstud" and what not. Maybe it was just mine that didn't open up so fast. I found myself dragging the hole all the way around.

But I was referring to the very thick blade they put on a SMF. I would figure it would open slower, unless it had a REAL thumbstub that you could get a good push behind.

that is probably because on the sng and smf there are no thumbstuds. those are stop pins.

the opener is the oval hole.

Please define a "real" thumbstud. I see absolutely no speed change from the SMF to another thumbstud knife.

My sebenza opened slow, so I added a little miltec and now it's as fast an assisted

Yeah I mean you can kind of use it as a thumbstud but it's too hard to get to. I'm not the biggest fan of the holes. But the SMF is quite a tank so I make an exception.

Again I had my sent to Strider, so maybe it just needed to be oiled up or something? I'm not sure I just bought it and it had some bladeplay and could use a bit of a sharpen so I figured I'd send it off to strider. Cheaper than buying the tool.

I know that you've said that Autos are illegal where you are, but you could send your knife to Butch Vallotton and get it modded to a discreet Dual Action. Most would never even realize it's an auto unless you show them. You want fast and cool? D/A is fast and cool.
