Just pulled my #35 B&S out of the mail box and gave each of the blades/tools a good flushing.
I'm very happy to report that I received a good one. Fit n Finish is very good and the Micarta is beautiful.
Main blade has about a 4.5 pull, i could almost give it a 5. It snaps to half stop and strong snap open/closed.
The fork tool has a solid 5 pull and is super snappy at half stop, opening, and closing. I really like this combo tool.
The comb has a lighter pull, not sure if I'd give it a 2 or 3, so we will call it a 2.5 pull. The snap closed is solid, the snap open is "livable', and if you push on the spine while it's open it will snap back to open. That's really good enough for a comb. There really isn't a half stop to speak of on the comb, it's more of a bump in the road. There is a very slight rub on the comb and main blade, but it's a non-issue. Thank you
@knifeswapper for this wonderful GAW prize, I shall cherish it for many years to come.
