Griptilians have partial liners, filtrum, that serve to support the cantilever of a locked, open blade, though they're located more to the top of the knife in proximity to the forward two stand-offs. If you squeeze the open side of the scales two-handed with great force you might get a mm or two of movement. The design plus the Micarta is really solid.
Short answer--NO!
Full disclosure: These are old pics as we're in our second of what will be a three-day, apocalyptic wind/rain storm and the light is terrible. I still have my Dragon in my pocket though I did carry my Grip here to the kitchen table to test for squeezability.
Well, at least you didn't put up two year old pics and try to act like it was something that had just happened!
