New Paradigm C&C

got my two today. one assisted, one auto. auto is goldish pivot....ya can also tell easily by model number being different and flipper on assisted one.

they hold and feel bigger than they are which is a good thing to me. auto came with lots of blade play side to side, i mean a lot.......but took a t6 torx and I adjusted most of it out easily. a tiny bit of up and down. which i can live with. the assisted came rock solid in every direction. the assisted is a bit awkward to open. have to move bolster and then use flipper. the auto is much more natural feeling. I do like the flipper on the assisted for open keeps fingers from sliding forward.

all in all pretty nice with bcci discounts. at full msrp price I think I'd pass on them. I'm not a big under 3.25" blade size folder fan. just like the bigger stuff.

Nice score JB! I have the auto and was surprised at how tight it is (no play). Was waiting to ask someone if the assisted opener was looser. You answered my question. They seem to be built like tanks.
