Absolutely! It's been done several times with several materials (SS/Ti), and if the RIL is different enough from the walker, then I'd say it's fair game.ZrowsN1s wrote:Can't we just do another compression lock? Only half kidding. Is a frame locking compression lock possible?

A wolf has teeth.
An eagle has talons.

Sal had mentioned the button lock on BF back in December 2013.

Button lock isn't a bad idea.. Especially if it is machined out for an optional coil spring that can be bought separately :D

Remember; *never* disassemble your Boker-matic and reverse the spring! (the instructions I got with mine actually said that! lol)Larry_Mott wrote:Button lock isn't a bad idea.. Especially if it is machined out for an optional coil spring that can be bought separately :D

Re: What lock is next for the Sage series?
I recently saw a button lock/compression lock hybrid. The knife escapes me at the moment, but I thought it was a pretty smart design. It would be amazing on the sage.
The problem of a coherent civilization is the problem of living with ignorance and not being frustrated by it.
Re: What lock is next for the Sage series?
I believe that's the Smock Knives SK23 with a licensed compression lock and button / flipper opening mechanism. Clever albeit pricey at $650!PaleMoon wrote:I recently saw a button lock/compression lock hybrid. The knife escapes me at the moment, but I thought it was a pretty smart design.

I'll be excited to see any new model with that lock! That one really stuck with me after that thread here!
Very trick.
...not so much the button compression lock. That one has unintentional disengage written all over it...
Going back to Caly.
