Great looking knife brother! I love my Evo 3.0! Wouldn't change a thing. As hard as any of them are to find I'm just thankful I found the version I wanted. I got the black tree bark handle, hand rubbed satin, with timascus clip just like the one you showed. Have you ever used nano oil? They've got 5w, 10w, and 85w, I use nano 85w on detent tracks, Pro shot zero friction on bearings and KPL heavy on washers.

Very nice! It was a tough choice but for me it’s hard to beat the classic design. I do wish the 4.0 was a little bigger like the T is though

You mentioned you added lock bar pressure to increase the detent. How do you do that? My Evo 4 seems stuck in the closed detent, and I want to decrease the lock bar pressure. My first thought was to loosen the pivot, but I found it was not at all tight. My seller from eBay mentioned I should tighten up the pivot (per the designer), but that didn't work. I hope to swap out the included spare pivot and bearings to see if i can get it better. As it is, I cannot even flick it open with one hand. It does of course open, but overall, at this point, I am disappointed.

Are you making sure to not put pressure on the lock bar when you’re opening the knife? If you’re fingers on the lock bar it pushes the detent into the blade and locks the knife down how you’re describing. All you do when adding pressure to the lock bar is ever so slightly bend it farther in. If you do the opposite and bend it out too far it can cause lockup issues where the blade may not stay locked open
