First Emerson CQC-14 or Mini-CQC-7?

Well the mini-cqc7 arrived. Love it! It's going into my EDC rotation.

Just for kicks i ordered the CQC-14!!!! I guess i'll have a chance to compare myself!

Glad to see you took my advice. Now you have another choice to make. Which one goes in which pocket?
 
Well got the "Snubby" 14

Wow what a different knife that is. Kinda everything the Mini 7 isn't! Big thick handle and sweet blade shape. Balance is outstanding IMO

2 things, are Emersons always that stiff to open? and the -14 liner lock just barely seems to engage the blade. The Mini-7 is about 1/4 thru incomparison.
 
You could loosen the pivot slightly. That'll get her moving easier. The lock will wear in with time. I would just use it and in time everything'll pan out.

If you like you can adjust the pivot just a tad. Did it with mine and it's much smoother.
