Whats your opinion on the tomcat 3 i just sold mine as i had always seen it as a big tough quality folder which it almost was in my opinion however i hated the plastic spine.
It seemed pretty much the only strong point on it was the lanyard hole and pivot screw which seemed to be holding the knife together except a few tiny screws which seemed like they would give IMO during the use i intended it for.
I do expect my folding knives to give eventually with my use but warning is key so as i can buy another and still have all my fingers.
I did however find it extremely smooth i trusted the lock as much as any and i liked the look overall from blade to handle it was a heavy knife but very well balanced.
I see the knew carbon fibre version but does that have the same spine?.
I kinow the architec doesnt have the plastic spine but thats over priced IMO.
