    As for any button stick on these, it's normal for the Malibu to have light stick to the button. The knife was designed with this taken into account. On occasion with new knives, especially DLC models (due to the DLC adding material to the lock face), the sticking can be slightly more firm. This is because the lock face and button need to be worn in. There's no way to do this besides using the knife. If you keep the lock face free from excess oil, and just simply use the knife normally for a little bit, it will very quickly break in. Just please note that some amount of light sticking on the button is perfectly normal on these knives. It's positive engagement between the lock face and button, and will diminish to a minimal level with normal use .....From PRO-TECH and Chris Crossman

      Haha sounds to me like Protec covering their asses with some hot air...
      You think Protech is the only company who's ever used DLC or any type of coating?
      I've had many knives where DLC coating made the operation much smoother...
      One is a button-lock.
      Don't buy into that nonsense about it being an intentional design...
      Nobody would intentionally design a knife to have stick.
      Yes correct, it may break in and get better, but I'll bet you my bottom dollar it sure as hell isn't "by Design"
      Maybe "a design fault"...
      There's not a knife designer on Earth putting lock stick or button stick in "as a design feature"
      What you just wrote my friend is a guy covering his ass so his buyers don't send their knives back complaining of button stick.
      It's humorous though..
      *A hypothetical For Example* -
      It's about like an Automobile Manufacturing Company whose Flagship model had a loose lug nuts problem eventually causing tires to come falling off while being driven.
      They decide to put out a statement to avoid a recall.
      The Automobile manufacturer comes out and says " it's actually an ingenious intentional design feature called self loosening lug nuts, you may lose a few tires but it's a design feature that helps break our heavy duty axles in by driving on them- once you lose a tire or two on the road, your car axles should be nice and broken in"😅

  • @mmikee407
    @mmikee407 Год назад +2

    I believe the lock stick is due to less than perfect alignment of the blade and the button lock interface not the spring mechanism. If you try to seed the spring and the overlying button perfectly square and then align both as perfect as you can with the blade tang contact interface the stick would improve

    I’ve never had stock on my mordax or any of my other protechs, accept when I bent the button trying to reassemble my Malibu when I didn’t know how. So chalk that up to user error, but being the great company protech is, they sent me out a new button for free and that totally fixed it

  • @wes.killed.it.5511
    @wes.killed.it.5511 Год назад +2

    just flip it bro. I have 4 button locks all have come with minimal-severe button stick. The coating needs to wear a smooth path with where ever the stick contact is coming from. After minutes on some, to hours on others, the stick ALWAYS goes away. You have to just be patient and flip the darn thing. Don't disassemble it again; every time that happens the contact point of the stick is moved from the "smooth" path you were previously creating. Thus causing it to start all over again. Keep at it; it will go away💪

  • @napalmholiday9708
    @napalmholiday9708 Год назад +1

    The stick happens where the button meets the blade. You probably already know this, but it will stick less with more and more use; I can actually rotate the button on my Malibu and find sections of the button that stick less because its worn in more on those areas. Maybe try putting some Flitz on your finger or a cloth and lightly polishing the button where it contacts the blade.

    I’m breaking in a new Mordax now and getting the same hard button stick but it’s easy to soften up by spinning the button slightly as you push it. Just keep changing the clocking of the button. Well that is if you still own it😮

    Does the mordax have a crowned spine? Looks like it in the video. That would be a nice touch. I bought an ace sanoma a while back and it has one and I think more makers should do it. It could be just me but I love the way it looks.

I have one of the regular Magdaxes inbound and was considering leaving it alone because I just assumed a company like Protech would be using ceramic, but defo can't abide steel bearings in this day & age. Honestly surprised that a company like Protech is still using steel bearings when ceramic bearings are defo the way to go and really don't seem like they're all that expensive. Thanks for info!

  • @kevinAuman1
    @kevinAuman1 Год назад

    From my experience oil causes the stick bro, if you blow it out with compressed air and it doesn't stick then there is your verification 🤷‍♂️ knives truly don't really need to be oiled and it does is attract lint and random things to stick to the surfaces you oiled... If I do use any I tend to use the tuff glide needle and after I oil it I blow it out then let it dry...
