If anyone is on the fence about EDI knives, by all means buy one. I purchased a Genesis 1 about a month ago at a gun show in Charlotte. I found that the blade wasn't as tight as I would like. I ended up tightening the pivot pin (big no-no) and stripped the head off one screw. I didn't realize that this knife was constructed differently than most liner-locks and that you aren't supposed to tighten the pivot (I used to own many Benchmades). A call to EDI led to a quick return call from Will Fennell. He was obviously very concerned about my problem and had a new pivot pin shipped to me right away. I installed the new pin and have been thoroughly enjoying the knife since. Will called me a couple of days ago to make sure I was happy with the knife and to talk knives (I found out about this site through Will. Much better than the other, IMHO) He is a very stand up guy and I would not hesitate to do business with his company in the future. You won't get this type of personal attention with most manufacturers (hello Benchmade) and my only regret is that there aren't more people in business with Will's attitude. Will, I'd love that complimenatry Genesis II now
