Interesting, thanks.

even if it was the aluminum handled model, the way that liner crumpled under only 70 lbs shows that liner locks are inferior to back locks in larger bladed folding knives.

I'm really loving these videos, Thanks cold steel.

I really hope the buck marksman is on your list of test to do I really want to see what you all do when you lose to it.

i want to see some sort of stabbing protocol added to the test.

A liner lock places the thin steel bar under compression, the state of greatest weakness for steel. Failure was inevitable.
