Question about lock up

[PatMourin45]

Hey guys, this is my first CRK, a brand new 25 sebenza. I am the first owner. And also my first frame lock. Is this lock up normal or is it late?

Looks like mine. Seems pretty normal for a 25, and actually it's only about 50% when you look at where the ball actually contacts the tang.

ah ok, thank you so much. I was looking at it and since i am not used to this kind of a lock it just startled me.

That is normal for a 25 and it's a frame lock

whoops! That's what I get for looking at my emerson persian before typing this up. lol. I meant frame lock. My bad. And thank you! =)

That is actually on the early side compared to some of the 25s I have seen! The ceramic contact point will wear very slowly so it won't be moving much on you:thumbup:

Yep, that is about 40% lock-up. Looks like a well built knife to me.

 

[Tripton]

That is much, much earlier than my 25.

You wouldn't want yours any earlier.
