Like some of you guy I fidget with my knife, but after a little while my para 3 will starts to stick. Is there something I can do to stop Thai from happening. Any help is welcome.
 
1: clean it with warm soapy water and an old toothbrush. Scrub around the pivot.
2: Let dry.
3: Add a drop of oil of your choice (KPL, Elna, etc) to the pivot and on the detent ball.
 
If you're comfortable taking it apart, you can clean it, as Marthinus says. Then polish the washers and everything they touch with green-stick (aluminum oxide) polishing compound. Then add a bit of fluorinated grease. Tighten the pivot just enough to stop blade play.
