Ocelot

[g.vantilburg]

Well I got my Ocelot the other day. I love it! Only one problem...It's really tight. Almost hard to open.......Does anyone else have this problem? I did recieve from Australia, so maybe he tightened it? Any thought? Thanks!

I don't own one, but I did handle one at my local knife shop/Spyderco dealer. I do not recall it being tight at all.

The Ocelot doesn't employ washers at the pivot, rather it relies on precision machining between the tang and the liners. I found that my Ocelots required a 'break in' period before they became easier to open. If all else fails, the pivot is adjustable.
