Mine is the BM Monochrome (red class BM). Plenty of knife for the $$$$.

A BM14210 as well... and beieve it or not, a Byrd Crossbill...

Amazing value.. these knives offer at their price point..

What's yours that locks open like a FB??
 
My ZT301 locks up so securely, it takes A LOT of force to unlock. Closest I've got to a "fixed blade" folder.
 
Spyderco Manix. The Spyderco D'Allara locks up rock solid also, but just doesn't have the hedt of the Manix.
 
interesting my cousin has a monocrome he has sent back to the company 3 times to have the monolock refurnished/replaced, i think anything with an axis lock does just fine for me (don't throw that monochrome it ain't a fb)
 
My 11-year-old BM975 locks up as tight as any fixed blade. It's been dropped 172 times; it's been "flicked open" switchblade style with my thumb 1121 times; it's been inertia slammed open 14.651 skabilliatrillion times; it's been batoned into white oak twice; and........
It still locks open like it was one piece of steel...... I am amazed by this knife.
:D
 
Little CCC keychain lock-back, looks like a mini-endura, but the blade is clearly low-quality steel (420J2?). But it won't close unless you want it to. Overall craptastic, but great lock!!

And of course my Native, but without any liners I wouldnt use it like a fixed blade.

Oh and my bali (before all the screws stripped out)
 
Probably my Cold Steel Ultimate Hunter or El Hombre (surprising for a linerless zytel handle, solid pin construction, 2nd hand knife that was a beater).
When new, I would have to say my Al Mar SERE 2000 was also solid as a rock, though that is no longer the case.
 
My Obies, Nishiser, Cucchiara, Elishewitz ALL lock up like a bank vault, and feel as solid as an FB.
 
CQC-7A. My other Emersons lock up like crap but I've beat on this one for a year or so and it's still a vault.
