Topic: How to get a blade more centered?
Replies: 5

What w3tnz said. When I received my first PM2 a few weeks ago, I wasn't happy with the blade centering, so I tried to simply "bend" the closed knife and voilà, the blade is dead center now (and the scales and liners, are, of course, not actually bent). I was surprised by how easily that wa...

That's unacceptable. Luckily, no such problem with mine. The tip of the blade is about 1.5 to 2 mm (~1/16 in) inside the handle.

Heinnie Haynes in the UK has the digicam satin and digicam dlc currently in stock.

I was literally a minute late for the black satin (went out of stock while I filled out my order, along with the black dlc), so I snagged a digicam satin instead. (My first PM. :) ).

As has been said, the 2013 (full flat grind) model should be more to your liking since it is said to have a stronger spring than the earlier FRN models (I only know the current model and find the strength of the lock to be perfectly adequate). I think that there's a limit as to how strong a lock mak...

I ordered mine in January from Heinnie Haynes in the UK. If you can't find the knife anywhere in the US and want it badly enough to be willing to pay ~75 % over the lowest US street price of the hollow grind model, HH has it in stock.

I have the 2013 FFG model. Not only did I instantly like the ergonomics, the scale texture, the jimping, the looks, the weight, the grind and the clip, I was also positively surprised by the stiffness of the lock after having read about it being on the weak side (which may have been the case with ea...

I had been afraid that I might find the lock up of the FRN UKPK too weak after reading that the FRN models had a weaker spring than the G10 models. I didn't know that the more recent FRN models also have a stronger spring. Anyway, now that I've received my new for 2013 FRN FFG UKPK (together with a ...
