I have seen photos floating around of a few waved 560/561's and was curious who all had this done. To me it seems like the perfect knife to wave, would be lightning fast out of the pocket and there's no speedsafe to worry about deactivating.

Before anyone jumps on and starts bashing the wave, I plan on using it for a backup knife on duty. I currently use an endura w/ wave and it has been great. The 560/561 just seems like it would be very smooth and would work very well waved. Appreciate any photos and/or feedback. Thanks!
 
Waved is a Emerson design for opening the folder when pulled out of the pocket. Spyderco has a Endura and a Delica knife that they collaborated with Emerson to use the Wave feature.
 
I agree it looks like a natural candidate for waving but I haven't seen one done - perhaps Charlie Mike has done so?
I do wonder if the hard-opening action would create any locking issues - due to the titanium locking surface getting wedged too hard against the tang. I can't think of any other waved titanium framelocks which would have already tested that issue . . . .
