Swayback Jack Crack - Is that Whack?

If it's a user keep using it. Otherwise see about getting it fixed.

The bottom line: it's your knife, do what it takes to make sure you still like and want the knife.

Would be worse if the crack were running to the pin, then it would almost certainly cause a raised edge and eventually a large chip would drop off.

This happened to me with a GEC 73 in smooth bone. Was so excited to get it, I cut open the packet out in the garden, took it out of its tube and it slipped through my fingers and landed on the back door-step. CRACK! Split right to the centre-pin. Fastest maimed knife in living memory.......:eek:
