I was at Plaza Cutlery in Costa MEsa , CA and got to handle two of these. They were awesome! The E-lock was really cool and the fit and finish on the knives was perfect. Polished Ti handles with ti overlays and a high polished blade. I read that Allen is now doing everything in house. If that's the case, these two knives are a tribute to his skill and talent as a maker. I used to own a custom Stiker, which was well made, but these new knives blow his old stuff away!
 
Thanks for the feedback. Could you tell us a little about how the lock works?
 
There is a bar/lever on the left scale that is pushed. This releases the blade open about 1/4 of the way out under the tension of a sort of leaf spring. The knife then can be opened to the lock position where the bar/lever locks the blade. To unlock, you push on the lever. It is very sweet.
 
What prevents accidental locking or unlocking while in the pocket or being gripped?
