Ooooh me likey! Damnit there goes the right 🥜 😝🤣
Damn. So many critical issues on an otherwise outwardly gorgeous piece.
I own 2 of these and i just spine wacked both of them and neither of them fail
Absolutely beautiful. I would want to use it except for the blade finish. I would want more of a user finish.
Lmfao…. Next bad thing….
CHOIL/PLUNGE-GRIND. shits funny.🤪🤙
Wow you're right about the lock up and way too early , not so much a custom when they have to put a steel plate on the loc bar. Good review !
Lock faces don't have a flat spot. It is a constant angle all the way up. Some us a concave lock face like this knife and old striders which causes lock slip. It is not because there is no flat because there isn't supposed to be a flat area.
Can you explain blade geometry? What is a good geometry consist of?
Wow, I never knew that issue existed. Highly recommend you reach out to the gents at Bladegallery.com where it was purchased to have them send it to Arno Bernard for repair.
damn! the lockbar failing like that sucks… and I was about to pull the trigger on one of these. its a gorgeous knife, but that, and the softer detent is an issue for me. I have a gen 4 Koenig arius, and my only issue with that, is the soft detent. I preferred the detent on the older ones, then add the gen 4 flipper tab. I just prefer strong, snappy detents. otherwise, an absolutely gorgeous knife. I love that blade shop, and its a perfect length, for me. good vid, thanks.
Great review man! No worries on the bad stuff, never say sorry for being honest. I just got it in, havent really worked with it myself and will be asking Arno to fix that up for me. He's mostly a fixed blade guy, just getting into doing folders so probably a learning pain, but great info, very thorough review and very happy you didn't hold anything back.
Damn that sounds good
Such a cool knife im jealous you got to handle one lol
Ok ok cool!!!!!!
Lock-up ————WOW On a custom knife ??????????????
When you said m390 I looked at my Victoria Knox executive that's in my hand the one that comes with the orange peeler and thought one of the victorinox series of knives ever came with a m390 blade what would the price be and how great of a knife blade would that be. the bigger blade would be an m390 and the smaller one could even be aus8 or 20cv
