I got both the medium and large from KnifeCenter. Not the best knives CS has released, but quite nice for the price. The tip issue is fixed, no way you'll accidentally cut yourself on these when closed. No lock rattle, either. The liners lock itself is pretty stiff, you gotta put some actual effort into closing it. Opening requires some wrist action. Edges were typical Cold Steel sharpness on mine. The Large gives you a lot of grip options, but I can't find any I actually like. Not a big deal for me, cause I only got it for collection purposes, but if you are one of those people who actually carries a big 6 inch folder, you may wanna handle one of these first. If I was gonna carry a mega folder, the Counter Point XL or Ti-Lite 6'' would be more to my taste.
