Anybody find opening up the wave feature makes more reliable?

Yeah did a similar but to lesser extent mod to cold steel ak47 as well
Top one = Cold Steel Black Talon II ,which comes this way (opened up , compared to other Cold Steel models ) .
Middle one = Talwar , is standard for wave thumb plate Cold Steel, from the factory .
IMO it can help catch the wave and prevent cloth being caught in the devise .
Fairly common mod also , but more than I want to attempt .
