BladeHQ Exclusive Smock - Natural G10 and M4 - TiCN blade
Re: BladeHQ Exclusive Smock - Natural G10 and M4 - TiCN blade
Mine should arrive Wednesday, & I am beyond excited!!
I have never owned a flipper style knife, so this will be a new experience for me.

I've got one on the way and also a set of black carbon fiber scales, so that I'll have an "all-black" Smock.
Re: BladeHQ Exclusive Smock - Natural G10 and M4 - TiCN blade
Hmm...good idea. Until I find the exact scales I want I think I'll put the smooth black g10 ones from my other Smock on this one.

Delivered a day early! Decided to get some SDK lava CF scales but those aren't here yet.
Re: BladeHQ Exclusive Smock - Natural G10 and M4 - TiCN blade
I've got some awesome laser engraved scales on the way, but in the meantime this looks pretty great...

Yep, I'm a sucker for all black knives and that looks awesome!

Awesome ! That's what I plan on and maybe a black deep carry clip ?
Re: BladeHQ Exclusive Smock - Natural G10 and M4 - TiCN blade
This is beautiful Julia. That's so murdered out cool. Is that the 20cv scales?

Jealousy is a curse ! :-(
I will have to wait 2 weeks (plus?) for mine !
But what you have in hand is what I had planned on 2 weeks back.
Such is life in the Antipodes.

I tell ya, I haven't seen a knife that doesn't look good all blacked out. I don't much care for this model but that looks outstanding.

So a little embarrassed, I just put new scales on but managed to lose the spring for the 2nd detent. Any way to get a replacement?
These are the reason for my loss...

Question for Sal, or anybody who has an original smock to compare with. Did the design change in this with the 2nd detent? I found my spring and put it all back together but now I'm not sure if I somehow did it wrong?
I had an original smock that I sold after I bought this one. With that one I couldn't open it by just holding the button, and I feel like the detent ball and spring installed differently on that one. With my new one I can still open it using just the button.
So, did something change or did I somehow put it back together wrong?
And fyi, these lava scales are better than I thought they'd be. They change color depending on the light and they also aren't as slick as some other types of smooth CF scans I've had in the past.

Re: BladeHQ Exclusive Smock - Natural G10 and M4 - TiCN blade
Glad you found your spring. I don't have a piece from the initial run in S30V, but can confirm that my M390 and M4 DLC Smocks both open if the button is depressed (given a small shake/wrist flick).kingston73 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 15, 2021 5:35 pmQuestion for Sal, or anybody who has an original smock to compare with.

Yep, they are. But I found some laser engraved ones that I swapped onto it a few days ago. Will post pics...

Re: BladeHQ Exclusive Smock - Natural G10 and M4 - TiCN blade
Same. I've had the s30v model, the 20cv, and this m4 - all could be opened by pressing the button and kinda swinging open. Just like with an axis lock.Zive wrote: ↑Sun Aug 15, 2021 8:23 pmGlad you found your spring.
