Here is the one that has been deployed and retracted a million times. It still deploys and retracts just as the other new one that has not been deployed a handful of times.

I don’t know if the newer ones out now come razor sharp, but these two I bought did. Again they both are the first ones they built.

Needs some wd40 every once in a while but it does its job. Sharpens up really nicely.

Street? Steel? I think it’s m390, if you zoom in on the blade it has a m39, the zero probably got removed from sharpening.





I know the early models had m390. I wonder why they changed to D2?

I have never lubed the one that I had set around and deployed a million times, but I also really never carried it working out doors, just carried it on town trips. They are easy to take apart, as I have done that.

And I wonder if dry lube be better than WD40?

Same general light use here. One of the knife sellers advised me to spray a shot of silicone on both sides of the blade, run it in and out a few times. Wipe blade clean if sticky, packing tape residue is stuck on the blade flats, before retracting it.
