Para 3 S90v carbon fiber Drop

I put one of my Lynch shorty clips on my Para 3, and while it improved the ride height some, I felt it to be just too much width in the hand for such a small knife to be comfortable. Some don't like them, but I think the wire clip would be a good candidate here. I've been pretty much exclusively EDCing the Para 3 for a bit less than 2 months, and it rides clipless in my pocket and the ergos are much better without the clip.

Has anyone else had issues with this sprint run relating to inconsistencies with the fit and finish?

The first one I purchased the finish on the blade was not great, did not deploy smoothly (I know some can take a little breaking in), and had pretty bad lock stick 
so I returned it. Keep in mind I include order notes for hand selection for fit and finish, etc when buying. The second one the blade finish is much nicer, smooth deployment, no lock stick, but the inside tab of the compression lock has machining marks and scratches (my PM2s are all smooth). I know it's minor, but for the price and considering it's a sprint run I expected everything to be spot on. I'm thinking of returning this one too and forgetting this sprint all together.

Some pics and initial impressions of my today received Para3!
Awesome knife, perfect centering, silky smooth, nice detent and came razor sharp. Very nice cf and unlike all the other cf the peeled ply cf looks really good and is very grippy. I think I put a Wicked Edge mirror edge on it just because
And with the ti deep carry clip from MXG Gear
