I have two G-10 Police models, of differing dates of manufacture, that show a similar trait. I do not know if it is a problem.
The lock lever, when the blade is open and locked, is just shy of flush at the blade end. In other words, the lock bar protrudes about the scales by a tiny fraction of an inch - barely enough to see, more felt like a rough edge if you run a finger across the back of the handle.
They both lock up tight, no blade play in any direction. I have tested them by applying reasonable force to the spine of the blade against the lock, and observed no give at all.
Since I have two that show this identical trait, is it possible that this is due to design? Perhaps to compensate for wear over the life of the knife?
