Over the Labor-day weekend Blade Head-Quarters had a lot of different knives on sale, and one "inexpensive" one that caught my eye was one of the Blue Pro Lite sport knives for $21.99 it was a "cannot resist the temptation", and I've been sitting here with it trying to figuire out what makes this "Triad lock" so special from a hundred different lock backs I've handled over the years.. Yes, it's smooth both on opening and closing releases cleanly, but it seems to be a fancy new name for the generic "lockback"
What am I missing.
I've probably owned (and lost) a couple dozen (plus the ones I've broken the tips off of doing something Stupid!) Buck 110s over the years and
While this knife is far cheaper to buy than any of them in terms of dollar price and even cheaper in terms of real money (I'm old enough to still think a dollar Should be represented by an ounce of silver, and is how I calculate inflation!)
The fact that this Knife is made in Taiwan (like most "Cold Steel" Knives) Explains it's "low" MSRP, I still cant help the impression that I'm missing something, but LACKING a working "Bucklite" version of a 110 to compare it to....
