I got a catch and release here. The knife is great, but the blade steel is a complete b**** to work on with my inadequate tools. Lesson learned, not going past Elmax now. I am interested in any folder of similar value, or a Spyderco Domino or ZT 560 plus cash. Note that I am a lefty, so if the knife you want to offer doesn't have lefty clip drilling your offer will most likely he declined. I am open to other offers, just know that I was a flipper over $150 and cash to fill the gap if there is any.
The 560CBCF has perfect lockup, perfect centering, smoothness on a level I haven't seen before, and an excellent detent. There are problems, though. Edge is not very good (this steel is ridiculously hard to sharpen), bevels aren't very clean, there is a scuff on the titanium from the clip, and a mark on the CF. I actually had to look hard to find the CF mark, though. Not very noticeable. The knife was a light user, not a safe queen, it just needs a home that can take advantage of the crazy high end steel.
