My new Emissary 477-1 arrived on Sunday and I was very pleased with it. I only opened and closed it maybe a dozen or so times within the first 24 hours. I started closing it and felt an odd sensation, like the spring had come off track or it was grinding against something (hard to describe). A couple open/close motions later and the assisted opening stopped working! It doesn't flick open and when I close it, it is obviously not engaging the spring/action.
I was emailing the company about returning it when I just retrieved it from the box to take a last look at it. It sat for a couple days and when I went to open it, it flicked open! It did this 2-3 times and then stopped working again.
Has anyone encountered this before? Is there a quick fix or should I just send it back? I haven't even cut anything with the knife yet, pretty disappointing...
