Sticky Inkosi

Got a lefty and been using it since receiving it. I wear large gloves and have stubby fingers and it feel very comfortable in hand without wearing gloves.
The knife came very smooth and i carry it in my pocket on a sheath. I find it very practical for edc in a more civilized environment ( office, city etc.)
 
The lock has definitely gotten smoother over the past two weeks, only slightly sticky now. Appears that the ceramic ball travels down the channel then veers off into the channel wall causing it to stick.
Im sure with enough time it would smoothen out completely, either way I'm sending it back tomorrow. Not stressed, I'm sure I'll be looked after.

I really do love the knife, perfect size for edc. Really like how it fits nicely in my zippo/change pocket on my jeans. I got large hands and I find it very comfortable to grip. The angled pocket clip makes a huge difference in comfort. I remove the clips on my small sebenza's but prefer to leave it on my Inkosi. The only negative i find is that the thumb stud is a fraction too close to the scale. So it's not as easy to open as a sebenza. Was thinking of buying another small sebenza but I think I'll just wait incase TNK comes out with a tanto Inkosi.
 
I like the Inkosi better...as much as I love the original Sebenza design, Reeves' new designs are even better (IMHO).

Those who have both an Inkosi and Small Seb how do you like the Inkosi? How is feel and hand and blade length? Also how do you like pocket clip angle? To me it is fairly similar to the small sebenza in size. I have a small and and love it. I do wish the clip didn't push on the lock bar, but otherwise I think the design if perfect.
