Giantmouse Ace Nimbus - $100 OBO (Please read carefully!!)
The good: super sharp Elmax blade that appears to be unused. Easily glides through receipt paper. Smooth action on washers (more on that below). Nicely centered and very solid lockup.
The Bad: There is noticeable lockstick. Not hard to disengage or anything, but you can hear and feel a "click" when disengaging the liner. Also, when I received the knife, when opening the blade it looked like the tang was rubbing against the liner. I tried to capture the rub marks in the video. Must have been some kind of tolerance issue or something. I added 2 extra super thin washers to that side (one PB and one teflon), and it seemed to have solved the problem, no more rubbing. Action and everything are still good. Just wanted to be fully transparent with what you're getting here.
Despite those issues, honestly this is a good knife. Will make a great user, just not for me.
Please reach out if you have any questions. PM or email (c dot maisonpierre at gmail dot com)
Thank you!
