Re: Classiest Spyderco Knife?

Re: Let’s face it Liner Locks and Back Locks suck!

these stories always blow my mind. i've used some crappy liner locks and only ever had one fail on me. even that was my own fault because i didn't flip the knife open hard enough for the lock to fully engage. i've never had any knife close on me.

Let the locks and detents do their job, and leave the blade flipping back and forth to YouTubers.
