Was this not only Spyderco's first flipper, but also their first ball bearing knife? I like good washers on knives that work well with them because they have a nice feel, such as a Sebenza or a good Para 2. But bearings could be really cool on some other Spyderco's. Most of them fly open easy enough, but one that comes to mind that could really benefit from bearings is the Tuff.
Most of it's struggle to open comes from the tight lock bar, but I would think the bearings would help a good bit. That would be such a cooler knife if that giant blade would just fly open like a flipper on bearings.
