Blade: 3-3/4" D2
Rockwell 60-61
Handle: 4-3/4" G10
Liners: Stainless steel

Solid lockup, no blade play, no hot spots, great four-finger grip, easy and smooth one-hand opening and closing. I removed the pocket clip.
I love it.

So this basically has two linerlocks (normal and spine side), but you only have to disengage the "normal" one to close? This is a new one on me, but it looked that way in the vid at AG's site.
 
You are correct, G. Scott H. You only have to disengage the "normal" linerlock to close the trapper.
 
Thanks. :thumbup: I just watched a vid on youtube of an original Dozier framelock version, so now I can see more clearly how it works. I can see it in your pics too, now that I know what to look for. The spine lock bumps up against a shelf or tab on the tang, which I'd assume is designed to cam the lockbar out of the way as you close it. The spine lock works basically as a stop pin. Awesome design. :cool:
