Random pro-tip for anyone needing a blue stonewash milled clip to match a blue stonewash WE knife with a NON-recessed pocket clip (WE Beacon, WE Culex, WE Elementum for example). Email WE customer service and say you bent your blue stonewash WE Qubit clip or simply ask for a blue stonewash WE Qubit clip. They'll send you one with screws for $10 even. Cheaper than buying a Civivi milled clip too. ($13) Don't need proof of purchase or anything.

@Shifftymking 5 ай бұрын

U can’t remove them but they fold up out of the way I haven’t had any issues sharpening mine. The action on it alone is worth any other inconvenience but I love the thumb studs they land in a super nice spot and there nice and big the front flipper is usable but not the best. The audible noise it makes because it’s a button liner lock is amazing I fidget with it more than any other knife I own

No it’s still a very good edc 14c28n steel and it’s a knife not a toy but still the action is so good it’s hard not to want to open and close it.

@russ_simz 5 ай бұрын

I got a WE Qubit and yes, the detent is super snappy, but mine doesn't lock up if I open it too hard. The knife jumps out of the lock in the open position, when I flick it maybe 3 out of 5 times. I'm hoping it will break in after a while and correct itself. It's just one of those things, every once in a while you get a knife that is missed during QC.

This knife has the worst action I've ever experienced. It ruined my finger. It costs three times more than the Civivi version, it has better materials and worse action. I dont understand why manufacturers blast or put coating on the surfaces of the lock. When they don't do this - like on this cheaper Civivi model - it works like a charm.

@peen2804 3 ай бұрын

i like how you think your singular unit of a knife is representative of all units of said knife. I also like how you give 0 explanation or context for why its "the worst action" or what "ruined my finger" even means. i have a the black one and the blue/satin both with very, very good and identical action lol. if something is wrong then exchange or return it. a radical thought i know

Blue stonewash was sold out at WMK and most other places and not paying an extra $50 through ebay for blue, which is slightly devastating as all my WE's are in blue stonewash aside from the mini buster. and oops i meant very very slightly longer. its like a fraction of an inch which is weird. i love them, but yeah they do some really weird stuff i dont quite understand with these WE versions of Civivis. Like making the WE elementum a flat grind vs the OGs hollow. or here the blade stock and length being slightly more. Though the WE praxis i will say has 0 compromises and is better in every way from thinner blade stock and better steel to the addition of thumb studs. Kaviso exclusive highly recommended if you've not checked out one before. cheers@@doodysdaggers
