Opened or closed?

I would say "closed" because this way the "handle-spring" is released.

Thanks for any advice.:confused:
 
Hmmm . . . what are the factor(s) that concern you? Perhaps after time the lock taking a set in the open or locked position? Both the closed and open positions of the lock bar are well within the region of elasticity of the lock bar "spring". You can store the knife in either the open or closed position w/o worry.
 
I have a few sebbies that have been sitting around for 6-7 years closed. No problems at all.
 
"Compared to steel, titanium alloys offer several advantages. Their density is only about half that of steel, so parts made from them weigh roughly half as much as steel parts. Yet their strength exceeds steel's, and they have twice the elasticity. That makes them ideal for applications that require flexible materials that don't crack or rupture. Titanium alloys resist corrosion better than the best stainless steels. And, like steel, titanium alloys can be readily cast or forged and are widely available to the industrial market."

It appears that the sort of fatigue you are describing would not occur until you've owned that knife for one heck of a long time.
