So I bought a Gayle Bradley 1 and it is a terrific knife indeed!
Let's start with some pics:
As we all know, closing the knife is hard to do and gives you a sore thumb pretty soon.
I solved this in a very easy way. Dissamble the knife and just bend the lockbar a little bit back to decrease the lockbar tension. Carefull, that needs some force! And just 1 mm will do. Measuring helps.
Also sandpaper and polish the sharp edges on the liners, especially the area where your thumb goes.
I also polished the washers, the inside of the liners and the pivot hole area on the tang.
Some pics of the GB1 dissambled:
I can play with my GB1 for hours now. It became very smooth and a breeze to close! A mod which is very easy.
The GB1 certainly lives up to the hype and then some! It became my favorite knife in a very short time.
One for the road, thanks for watching:
