Congratulations! You are the winner of a small but nice prize in the Cold Steel lottery: a properly adjusted lock mechanism!KLJ77 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 20, 2021 2:37 am Bob, Garry...I got my little blue 6" Tuff Lite today. I love this knife. Very impressed...great snap, open & closing, smooth opening.
Now...I must be living right, or something. The lock release on my knife is super smooth to depress and unlock the open blade. No discomfort on the end of the thumb, not stiff, tight or hard to depress. I put a touch of pivot oil on the pivot joint and it's even better. Maybe with all the negative reviews this knife was getting due to how hard it was to unlock the open blade, Cold Steel did some tweaking to alleviate the issue, or I'm just a fortunate type of guy.
Nevertheless Bob...I have your instructions saved for future reference just incase.
How's the sharpness? Every one of my Cold Steel knives has been shaving sharp out of the package. I mean really shaving sharp.
