What's the smoothest folder you have ever felt?

Cutter Knife & Tool Brend #2 by far better than any production or custom folder I've ever tried.

Ripple with the IKBS it has zero blade play in any direction whether open, closed, locked, unlocked, or open halfway. The action still feels super glass smooth. It is smoother than anything else I ever felt.

Agreed above Seb's and other customs this under $70 production knife that gets no fame except in this specific competition. It is easily the winner. What other knife has this IKBS?
 
My Benchmade Rift is my fastest. It's not as balanced as my Strider but it moves like glass.
 
No question in my mind. My mid 90's Kershaw Talon has a perfectly made locking liner. It is the smoothest operating knife I own and have ever used. Whether that is true of all Mid 90's talons, I don't know. It is certainly true of mine.
 
I've owned a BM940, I've tried a few high end knives and now carry a Three Sisters Forge TSF with IKBS.
At first I would've said the BM940 was the best and smoothest and, once I received the TSF, I wasn't too impressed in the difference of smoothness between the two... But then... The TSF started breaking in and I used it a lot for 2 weeks straight. I then grabbed my 940 to compare again and oh my lord...
The difference is very noticeable now and the TSF feels by far smoother.

When it comes to William Henry knives, they are buttery smooth but the lockup is absolutely crap. Very noticeable side to side blade play right out of the display shelf. I'm assuming it's smooth because it's floating between washers and not in contact with them....

Edit: I'm about to post a review of the TSF folder for anyone interested! 300$ for a custom using IKBS bearings.... ;)
 
As brave Sir Robin once said "that's easy".....

This beats my previous smoothest the 943. My best knife buddy, who is really into Buck Knives when ever he drops by if he sees it on me always says can I feel the action on your BM again!
