Wegner Reviews

[dino]

Let me start by saying what an excellent knife the wegner is. Unfortunatly I had to send mine back due to excessive liner travel. So as I wait for the replacement I would like to hear from other members on how much fun they are having with theirs. Lets hear how the Wegners being used day after day are holding up. What features such as blade design ect. are you finding useful. What, if anything would you change. I read that some members had liner travel and decided to wait until there was blade play before sending it back. How are these knifes doing?
Thanks for your input.

Greetings Dino. You' ve made a fine choice. The Wegner is my favorite and most carried liner lock folder for all around use. It has done all of what I' ve needed a knife to do. The handles are very ergonomic and the slight texturing of the G10 scales afford a good grip. The ATS 34 blade with it's relatively thin grind makes for a very keen edge. Both of my Wegners came very sharp and did not need my usual out of the box touch up. When it needed touching up, a few strokes on my Sharpmaker did the trick. Although the Wegner was designed as a hunting tool foremost, which I' ve not used for yet, I wished it had both a deeper finger groove and a recessed locking liner for the "tactical" oriented. And of course, the sound of that "Ker- chunk" when swinging open that blade! Aaaahhhhh...

L8r,
