Sharp & Fiery You stated it wasn't fair or relevant to mention liner locks. Other people have mentioned Axis locks or Spyderholes as sore points. Where is the line drawn?
So the system works? Great, thanks for your support.
I don’t have a problem with the axis lock on other knives. The patent ran out. Like you said, “other people brought that up” not me. I do have issues with knives being identical to other legitimate knife companies knives. Blatant copies.
I have lived in the knife world long enough to remember when knife makers would share their information and designs freely, and Im sure you remember those times too. Now its all about IP theft, and IG makers with all these “secret.” Those secrets were built off of FREE information from the good ol boys.
It’s not fair to bring up linerlocks because there is no patent anymore. How are you missing this?
