So my delica 4 Ti Damascus arrived. Really love it but the blade isn't centred and is really, really tight? Any suggestions? The blade looks really nice and the scales are also great.

Mine is centered and everything looks great. My blade is also very, very tight. Loosening the pivot had no effect, so I put some FrogLube CLP in the pivot area and opened and closed it 20 or 30 times an it helped some. I'd like to know which lube is the absolute best for this sort of thing. I've got Nano 10 and 85, CRK grease, FrogLube paste, Militec, Tuf-Glide, Ceramic Wax Chain Lube, DuPont Teflon Dry-Film, and Break Free CLP... but I usually use very little lube and that usually FrogLube because I like to use my knives on food when handy.

Also, the lock on mine is very hard to depress, much more so than any other Spydie I have. I expect both conditions will improve with compulsive opening and closing, but I'd like to hear any suggestions.
K-390 on hand: Mule Team 17, Police 4 G-10, Endela (burlap micarta), Endela backup, Endura (canvas micarta), Straight Stretch (now blade-swapped with G-10 Stretch), Delica Wharncliffe, Dragonfly Wharncliffe, & Dragonfly Wharncliffe shorty mod
Note to self: Less is more.

It is a really cool little knife. Also makes a great tie clip.

Congrats! I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I picked one up at the seconds sale and I was unable to put it back, even though I never really wanted a Spin Nishinjin. It's a fun little knife!

Sorry dude, I've had mine for several weeks now... :D I also first recommended to Casey that he try anodizing them. Here's some not so good pics, but proof's in the pudding as they say! The blue anodizing is almost a direct match to the anodized Ti fluted Millie (second pic is closer to true color).

I also have a blue ano Ti prybar of his and a sweet free shirt with his logo! I was planning to include Casey in a modder's showcase thread I've been planning to start (along with Steve Ketchen, Cuscadi, Allen Putnam and STR).

Oh, and yes, that IS a titanium PM2!! Cheers, Radioactive :)

Southard. But it's on its way back because I'm not paying well over $200 for less quality than I get for $35 in a Tenacious.
