Twitch 2

The only thing I can complain about is that I haven't really carried/used mine and it already has minor rust spots on the liner edges/scales (but not the blade thankfully). I live in San Francisco, so it theoretically could be moisture in the air, although I'm pretty central and not near either body of water. The only other knife I've seen do this is the Kershaw Leek (standard SS version, my Ti/ZDP and G10/S30V are both fine). I have many other knives (Benchmade, Spyderco, SOG) and none of them exhibit any rust. YMMV.
That said, I do like the design of the Twitch II- small and lean, but with a useful and quickly accesible blade. It's sort of a classier (albeit heavier and more rust-prone) version of the Flash I.
 
Only thing I can think of is that the liners are not made of the same steel as the blade, since you said it isn't affected.:)
Even being in central San Francisco, not near the water, you'll still have a high humidity level and probably salt too.
