Most satisfying knife to open

[greater]

AD20.5 and probably that rest of the AD20 family. I would love to know how the bigger AD20 feels when opening and closing.

Fully broken in Inkosi, has to be the smoothest knife on washers.

I wait on the next one to possibly dethrone the Inkosi.

Rockstead HIGO has successfully dethroned said Inkosi.

 

[POCEH KOCEB]

My Griptilian and my Spyderco Vallotton. I can flip those all day.

Curtiss F3 never fails to put a grin on my face.

Maybe the Freeman 451 flipper for me.

I love that it has two ways to open it. Either the flipper tab or the thumb cutouts.

 

[snuffle]

I'd have to say my Halo 5. I have other single-actions, but it still is the champion of the "big scary knife" game.

But for non-ridiculous knives, my large Sebenza 21 sounds and feels... exactly like it should.

And I love my Whippersnapper, that has become my house knife. Pretty much the only one I actually fiddle with.

For me

Scott Cook Locsha
Oz Machine Roosevelt
JG Scout 2.0
Skiff Accomplice

Those are the most satisfying opening feels in my collection

A broken in sebenza is a thing of beauty to open.

For fast flippy bois, the arius is my favorite.

My latest Hinderer XM-18 3.5 has a super snappy opening, and drops shut like a guillotine...
And I've got a couple of Olamic Wayfarer 247s that rival it.

Without a doubt, these three. I happened to be carrying all my smoothest knives today, too.
Espada XL, for the sound of a shotgun, Sage 5 for smoothness, and the M4 Micarta Shaman for it's CLACK, or "psssss" when you open slowly.

That sage 5 is awesome. I want thin mint cookies now, and a sage 5.

Smoothest compression lock I own, what I weigh all other comp locks on! Had to get one for me after I was jealous of the one I got for my girlfriend, thinking of dying it blurple or something! Love the stick of mint gum it came with, ha.

 

[Monofletch]

I will have to say it’s my Mini Buster. It has a “thwack” like no other.

 

[squoke33]

Prolly my chaves redencion, sounds like a bolt release when u open it

 

[Elgatodeacero]

Grayman Satu is #1 for me, and Spyderco Shaman is #2.

 

[unwisefool]

Maybe the Freeman 451 flipper for me.

I love that it has two ways to open it. Either the flipper tab or the thumb cutouts.

3 ways, you can also press the button and have it swing open as well.

 

[Oldtoolmaker]

The satisfying click as my Spyderco Endura with the wave is ready to use instantly in my hand

You’re right! I forgot about that.

I had no idea the grayman was that large.
