Hole opener for Sebenza

[Slim to None]

I'm on board, I think the hole looks pretty good. I like both designs; I'd probably want one of each.

This S90v you speak of is an even more enticing concept

Chamfer the oval some, and what you're left with is not only one less "part" for your Sebenza (two less parts in the instance of my double-lugged Seb), but you've also got an ambi opener that will not catch and snag the corner of your pocket on the draw.

I've always thought a hole-opening Sebenza would be right on time.

Professor.

Bingo! I've owned several Sebs that have decided on their own to open partially in the rear pocket, especially with a dual thumb stud. My double stud Striders do the same thing, so it's not just a Sebenza issue. (There are going to be pluses and minuses for each type of blade release) Your mileage may vary

It's personal preference, but I like the hole opening method.
For some reason, my thumb doesn't always positively engage thumb studs (especially under pressure or if I'm not looking at it). With a hole, my thumb naturally falls into it and engages the blade.
I agree with Professor regarding the chamfer on the hole.
Perhaps a different shaped oval, or a series of two or three holes, or some other practical yet distinctive hole-opening method for Sebbies would be welcomed.
(I've owned a number of Sebbies and always sold them off only due to the thumb studs. Just have an impairment in that way, I guess...)
