These are manufactured by lionsteel right? I hope spyderco will be doing QC because I'm not too confident in lionsteel's F&F

Can't you just lie to me and say that it's perfect?

My SR-1 is pretty much perfect. I'd say the only knife I've owned that had better F&F is my Small Sebenza.

I got mine today too from GPknives - other than the pocket clip being a little too flared out, I see nothing wrong with it other than a little cosmetic things (witch doesn't matter to me personally, since it's gonna be a user).

Ok im not at home to post a video yet but ill answer questions and say what my issued are
1.yes they are made by lionsteel
2. I wish I could lie becaiuse I soent 300 buck on it lol
3.rotoblock works mine
My issues are back spacer and titanium have gaps on both ends, stop pin is not seated all the way on g10 side, titanium has a wierd dent above pivot, blade grind is terrible, thereis a secondary bevel at the tip but the rest of the blade is pretty much a single grind ( cant think of the name right now)

Most of my issues are cosmetic exept the stop pin and blade grind
I also have the new zero toletance 0560 and the fit and finish is much better

Cosmetic issues at a knife costing $300 is a little silly especially since spyderco is known for their great QC.

You guys are making me nervous. This is kind of making me want to cancel my order I placed yesterday. I know that people say we are ridiculous for complaining about the quality of $100 knives, but I DO expect a $300 knife to be pretty damn good. I hope the second batch is better

I don't want to dismay anyone here. I have never handled a Lionspy so I really don't know, I only have a small amount of experience with Lionsteel themselves.
If not..it'll make picking which one to keep a whole lot easier

That conversation needs to had over a beer or two my friend.
Anyways, still stoked about the LionSpy as I've been lucky with every other Spyderco purchase.
