back spring sticking out a little bit when open ??

[cbnutt]

seen a lot of knifes that were worn the other way, sunk in a tad when opened, but, what about slightly sticking out a little when openend ?? knifes that are new , or older mint condition knifes sometimes do it, iam "guessing " that would be repairable right ? probly easier to take away than to add, probly dosnt hurt nothing, but always bugged me a bit, just curious as to the fix, thanks.........

Does it fit flush when the blade is closed? If so the fix will be a little tougher.

[cbnutt]

yes, flush when closed., should just be a matter of taking a bit of metal off some where shouldnt it ??

[gmusic]

Well........................The knife must be taken apart to make the adjustment, and it's possible you'll mess up the tension. Kaleb will know more about this than I.

yea i diffantly wont try it my self, i seen a 70,s mint muskrat the other day that seemed the same way, mabe something that seems to hapen ocasenily ? and also a new barehead trapper the other day at the shepard hills store that did that.

That is not uncommon.

It is one way you can judge a quailty knife. OR at lest the work menship.

I did not see the company name yet.

[cbnutt]

case , from the 70,s "dots" its probly nothing most people would notice , i probly get to paranoid i guess when i get a new knife, i start looking for every little flaw ! i was just guessing it might be a easy fix

Well you’re looking at a GR8 knife to close.

That is a production knife sold in hardware stores, and not an Artists knife.

Perhaps your next knife should be a GEC or Queens knife.

They try very hard and getting things right.

But that’s why they cost more too.
