    The Handle was the biggest thing to get used to for me . It took me awhile before I really really got comfortable with it. I can't tell you how many times I've had to pry the lock free but I love the damn "pop"

    Them things are built for anything that comes at it bro! You can tell there was a lot of thought went into it. Probably many thoughts from many people I’m sure. It’s just to perfect not to have had. Thanks for sharing brother

    Those "thumb studs" are the closed, and open position stop pins.
    Kinda Like on a hinderer, except hinderer uses an internal stop pin for the closed position.
    I love external stop pins because they really help stop lateral blade play.
    Great review man.

    That lock was tuff with me right out the package too. I found if I opened it without flicking it open, it was manageable. But I was still tempted to get that loud click 😏
    I had fun with it and it continues to give smiles to folks 😄 it's a beast for sure!

  • @TheJohn93226
    @TheJohn93226 2 года назад +2

    Plainly said those are not thumb studs at all. They are used solely to stop the blade from going all the way back and also all the way forth, when opening and closing the blade.

    You can definitely tell that blade has been used! I believe it started out as a tanto blade grind and over time the use and sharpening has basically transformed it into a drop point. Still an awesome knife though!

      I picked up a T in a trade, it had that "glassed" high polish. Just like you I found it too slick. I ended up chucking up a bronze brush on my drill press to remove the finish ended up with a decent orange peel in the raw gave it good grip surface still have it. This was before Greg really got into textures...I must have been crazy to do that to a $700 knife but glad I did. Now works well when wet.

    Greg is a pretty good guy and does stand behind his knives he will quickly tell somebody that beats the hell out of the knife and sends it back to him saying is defective. But you talk to him and tell him i use the hell out of it and it has lock stick now now and see what he would charge to fix it. I'd bet he would fix it reasonable price or maybe not charge him. We know Scab uses his knives but doesn't abuse them. Great Vid Donny.
