Whats up with Lone Wolf Knives Harsey Tac Folder

[Cyblade]

I was going to buy one from New Graham and they said they are suspending sales cause of some QC issues. I really want one but I'm worried about getting a lemon and having to go back and forth till I get a good one. Have they fixed whatever issues they had or is it still a problem. I'm not useta spending over 50bux on a knife so this is a MAJOR upgrade in my knife buying and I dont wanna sit and go "I spent 200bux on this". So is it safe to buy or should I wait for an all clear.

My T1 is a great knife, no problems at all.

My T2 was sent back to LW due to lock-up issues: lateral and vertical blade play and a slipping liner lock. I received it, after repairs, and the lock still slips...go figure...

I can recommend a T1, if you want a really big folder. I can't recommend a T2, as the lock issue is too much of a safety issue.

I have 2 t-2s, one came with some blade play and was not aligned when closed but I sent it in to be repaired, and it came back fixed. The second one came with no problems.The t-2 is my favorite folder, its a good size, holds an edge, isnt that hard to sharpen and both of mine lock up solid.

I've been EDCing a Lonewolf T-2 Tactical Ranger since mid last December, and working it HARD. I've never, ever dreamed of loving a knife as much as I do this one. Can't comment on the QC issues, all I can say is I darn sure got the best folder I've ever owned out of the deal.

My T2 has a great blade, great lockup and centering... and the scales are not properly matched to the liners. It works and works well, but is definitely a "second." The quality control at Lone Wolf, from personal experience and from research and from talking with New Graham myself about this, is simply terrible.

I havent seen or handled a bad one yet. The T-2 is a real beauty and deserves a lot more 'air time' than they seem to be getting.
