Nobody has yet mentioned the superior aesthetics of the 50/50 choil knives when they're closed. Their shape has an elegant flow. The choil-deficient knives have an interrupted, choppy look to them.
I'd like a choilless blade that looked good when closed. And it would have to be a CBBL, to keep my fingers out of the way as the blade drops closed.
You probably already have "heard" me saying this, but still and for anyone who might not (or new members who might believe in some of the common misconceptions about locks):
It could also be a backlock, since it is no problem to close this lock with fingers all the time completely out of the blade path.
Plus, there are several additional very convenient ways of closing a backlock without dropping the blade in your forefinger.
Actually, in my experience, the backlock offers the most overall and also the most safe for the fingers one handed closing methods
