Cold Steel Swift 3

Earliest Swift had no safety and improper temper on the wishbone spring .

Busted spring would make knife useless . Wouldn't stay closed or open . :eek:

They reportedly fixed the temper process and added the safety , which will both prevent opening or closing when engaged .

The correct temper springs have a kind of yellower cast/hue .

IDK if S3 has same kind of spring, but looks like a safety on the side ?
 
Heres a slight update on the Swift 3 ;on the plus side i like this knife enough to buy another.so i bought a second one on the exchange cheap . The guy i got it from slightly bent out the clip so i went to remove the clip to bend it in and that torx screw will not budge. At 1st i thought he loctited it so i tried my other one and it wont budge either.I guess i can use a soldering iron and melt the loctite Cold Steel foolishly used to literally weld that screw shut. I did manage to get the clip back a bit to where i like it but if anyone wants to reverse the clip good luck.If anyone here has one can you see if your screw for the pocket clip moves? Be careful though not to strip it. Another little black mark on GSM.....
