T tiguy7 I'm really curious how the custom Klecker lock "feels" compared to a decent production mid-back lock (like an Endura or something). Is it stiffer to unlock?

The lock is very smooth and easy to disengage. I have front lock knives with mid release from Boye, Spyderco, A.G. Russell, LionSteel, etc., and the Tighe is at the top IMO. Notice that the rocker spring is integral to the rocker.
