@@bunker2555 Thanks🙏. I believe you but Im in Switzerland and bought it at lamnia so sending back for service is kinda complex. Maybe they would pay for shipping and such but its maybe to mutch effort to expect that. I did put some oil at that locking part and it seems to work now. I know its not optimal putting oil directly at the lock but for this design I dont worry about failure.

Thank you🙏 Very kind of you. Well Im just fooling around a bit. No rocket science just some basic immitation. I just saw there are some acoustic sessions or live performances where you can see the hands of the musicians pretty well and which are almost unplugged. Like this one for example. You can see the hands and remember the positions of the piano player well enough. After you could learn the song in maybe an hour pretty well even without knowing anything about the Piano. But Im often already happy when I know what I would have to do since there are so many things you could do or learn. Basically you put your fingers down until it makes the same sound. Obviously I would have to practice more so it sounds more exact and so that I dont have to think about where to put the fingers. Maybe an hour or two of practice just playing this song on piano would do the trick.

Hello gentlemen, do you still own this knife? I’ve seen they made a “lock” version of it, and old design is gone and unavailable to buy.

Of course detent would be a different, because of the different locks, different size & different weight. Always compare with same lock, weight, size & blade thickness on the similar knives. Good collection, thanks for sharing.

I don't think I've ever seen a axis style lock with a good detent feel. I think hole deployment for a reverse flick is best for cross bar locks. I definitely like the ring from full deployment and looks like a good hard use knife.

Would you recommend this to anyone? How did the handle feel? Was it feeling strong and ridged? Or, did it feel weak and flexible?
@hardusehobby10 ай бұрын
Of course there are better options out there. Still I was kinda surprised of the durability. Obviously my test is limited by the time it took and by the force I was willing and able to generate. Also it wasnt that good to grip it to generate force. That might have lowered the impact. It felt pretty cheap so I expected it to fail but it did hold up way better then expected. Maybe a long term test would show different results. I didnt hard use it since then because there are better options out there for a user knife. It seems like the secondary lock does pretty good in preventing failure of the standard liner under abusive use at least for some time. The liner and the hole construction is a bit bendy so it doesnt break. The tanto blade might not be my nr1 choice for all around tasks. Also a thick blade should maybe be wider for better slicing.

For an inexpensive knife it did great! I’m not sure my Benchmade Grizzly Ridge would do as well- and I’d be afraid to try!
@hardusehobby2 жыл бұрын
Hard to tell. I dont own a Benchmade. Some Benchmade knives seem to be very tough. Like the 560 Super Freek 980 Turret or the old Adamas for example. They seem to be pretty successful in the hard use tests out there. But some Benchmades seem to be more average in terms of strengh. A couple of people also reported issues with the reliability of these ring shaped springs of the Axis lock. But from what I have seen most of the Benchmade Knives should be pretty save to use in most scenarios if you dont try to break them. I mean you could definitely try it. Its fun to do a hard use test and if you really wanna know how strong it is and if you can replace the knife its a entertaining thing to try it out. I know its a bit wasteful but some people drink alcohol some people occasionally hit knives for fun right?😉
