Should the lock on a liner lock move with pressure on the blade? When I put pressure on the back of the blade, the liner lock moves towards the outside (as in, trying to "unlock&quot<img src="wink.gif" width=15 height=15 align=middle border=0>. My Military doesn't do this at all. It moves roughly half of the thickness of the blade. Should I be concerned?

hi there fnhp35! if you are concerned try a spinewhack and watch your fingers!! keep it sharp and safe,,,,,,

I tried what I guess would be a spinewhack and nothing much happened, I can feel it shift a bit, but nothing too big. I'm not hitting it real hard because it's the coated version and I don't want to scratch off the coating. Is it something that could even be easily fixed? I know the Military (my other knife) can be adjusted because of the pivot pin. Thanks.

My Lum C46 Tanto did the same thing, then it actually started getting loose. I found some instructions either here or at BF & did adjustment thing twice to get it to lock up solid & stay that way.
It was pretty easy but if you do it wrong there could be a problem. Perhaps there's someone here who could post detailed instructions again? If not, I'm sure Spyderco Customer Service can take care of it.

BTW..Gota love those Brownings!
