How smooth is your Kwaiback?

[chrispy513]

I just recently got my first Kwaiback after having admired them from afar for a long time. The first time I flipped it, I was amazed at how well it flipped without having a painstaking detent on it.

However, I noticed immediately that there was a fair amount of lock rock. I found that if I cranked down the pivot, the lock rock went away but then it wouldn't flip nearly as well, no matter how much I adjusted the detent in or out. I tried adjusting the knife for well over an hour trying various things and just cannot get it to be smooth with no lock rock.

I know I read about a few people talking about theirs falling closed under its own weight, and I know for sure mine will not do that under its current state of affairs. Am I missing something, or is this in need of a trip back to Jake?

How is the action on your Kwaiback?

IDK I'll find out when it gets here....


Sound like you need to break that knife in.

Congrats!

Yea, that's very likely. I've been playing with it for about a week now, flipping it every chance I get. I bought it NIB off the exchange here so there's no telling how much it was played with before. However, I plan on this being my high-end user, so it'll get worked in eventually.
