ive had 2 case knives and both have had a slight burr on the back side when closed, after the have been open and closed like 50 times. Is this just a normal break in , then they dont develop that burr anymore. to clearify what im talking about is when the knife is closed and you run your finger very lightly over the back side there are slight brass fine burrs. if you wipe them off, and open and close the knife 50 times they come back. Im thinking the knife is tight and it breaks in? Anyone else ever notice this?

I've experienced the phenomena, for what its worth.
Personally, I think it is a finish (manufacturing) problem. Rough finished springs rubbing on the liners, raising a burr as the knife is opened and closed.

I have experienced this and just open/close it around 50 to 100 times and it kinda goes away. I just kinda ignore it even though I shouldnt.
