first Kershaw

[Maybeso]

I got my first Kershaw today!

I ordered a Mini Mojo last week and received it this morning… I’ve never had an ‘assisted opening’ knife before, so I’ve been playing with it and showing it off to co-workers for a couple hours. After initially being a little stiff, it works like a charm now. :thumbup:

This is a solidly built knife, a bit on the small side if you have largish hands (like I do), but perfect for clipping into the front pocket (like it is now), and it came wickedly sharp right out of the box! I’m working this baby into my EDC rotation, starting right now!

I have 2 things to mention though:
1. The clip is a little snug for easy use on denim pockets, ‘cause right now when I push it over the edge of the pocket, I find myself pushing hard enough for the ol’ pants to start sliding down the hips… So I’ll be working it a little for a better/easier fit, aaaand…
2. The thumb studs are loose. Does anybody know if they’re supposed to be this way? If not, what’s the best way to fix them?

Overall though? I’m pretty damn happy!

S'posed to be that way. The flats have to be able to rotate in order to lock.

No flats on the mojo studs. They still have to be a bit loose, though.

Cool beans, I'll leave 'em alone.
Thanks!

Ah, see? Now I have to out and buy one, so I can at least appear as if I know what I'm talking about. I had assumed they were like Onion's other stud locks. :foot:

This whole bunch is down with the sickness!!!

Keep 'em comin'!!!

 

[riffraff]

I'm not addicted. I can quit anytime I want. I'll just get that one Mini-Mojo, and I'll be done. Just that one. Really. That's all. Seriously.

Congratulations! :thumbup: Welcome to the club.

Kershaw hooked me with their AO on the Blur, that was followed by a fondness for polished G10. Other Kershaws are bound to follow.

Me neither. I can quit anytime. Or maybe when the money runs out.

I can quit whenever I want, I just choose not to.

Congratz on your first kershaw, and welcome to this sub forum :thumbup:.

(In case you ever get addicted or feel like you are getting addicted, then the simplest way to avoid the itch is to not look at the pics*)

*disclaimer- I'm not for sure if this works or not, I still can help but look at the oh so pretty pics.

 

[PG5768]

Ah, yes, the pictures . . . stay away from the pictures :thumbup:

 

[hwpaintballer]

I can't stop scrolling up to stare, man those are some nice pics, great find PG :thumbup:

The beginnings of my problem (er, fondness for polished G-10) goes back to these pics.

 

[hwpaintballer]

I can see why .

 

[supasuprab0b]

you jsut had to go and post pics didnt you?

 

[PG5768]

you jsut had to go and post pics didnt you?

Like my sig line says, "I'm just here to help."

 

[supasuprab0b]

Well you have. One of those beauties is now on my must have list, behind about 5 others LOL.

 

[Maybeso]

I've been adding to my "must have" list for the last few days... Currently topped with a ZT 0200, followed closely by a JYD II. :thumbup:

I'm big on the larger folders apparently.

But I'm still pleased with my Mini Mojo.
