BEEFY liners, thicker than the frames on some smaller framelock folders!

How do you like it Jie?  I have one coming in from another trade.

So far it feels pretty good. It's heavier than I'd liked, but once in pocket it's not as apparent. The lock is quite difficult to disengage one handed due to lack of cutout. One thing to watch out for is the choil is so melted into the handle shape and feels like part of the contour, several times during reprofiling I had the urge to move my finger forward "into the choil", then it jumped at me "I am holding it by choil!". Without a finger guard it takes some getting used to.

I reprofiled mine to 20° with 30° microbevel, M4 is tough stuff to grind.

I wanna get the new BM Sibert Folder. That´s a beefy basterd ;)

On topic: Mates, can anyone here help me out with a comparison pic of a BM Dejavoo vs the smaller Dejavoo? Or the smaller Dejavoo vs a Spyderco like the Tenacious, Manix2 or something like that? I´d love to get one of the two knives, but I´m not sure if the Dejavoo is too big for my EDC needs...

Thanks!

Been a little while since I have purchased a new Spyderco. Always liked the Endura-4 when it came out and bought a couple of those a while back. But seeing the new colors offered in them with the flat-ground blades I had to get one.

Got this one in their new Green FRN.......





I much prefer the full flat-ground VG-10 blades on these as opposed to their earlier blades like on my other two. And I really like the new colors they have for them. Really livens up their line of E-4's. I really need to get some more, the Blue and Purple are next on my list.  :tu:

Anyway, typical Spydie construction and finish. Can't find a fault with it.



<-.....click on thumbs for larger views!

Here it is between my other two E-4's...........



Great knives for the money.

Some mod to my Gayle Bradley, a LOT easier to close now. Weight saving from drilling liner is negligible however, only 0.5 oz. :(

Amazing Job on the GB Jz! Drilling those liners could not have been easy. They look so well done. Great job.

Thanks! Yeah the liners were a pain in the butt to drill. Was hoping to lose more than just 0.5 oz thou so that was a bummer.

0.5oz might not sound like a lot but it's enough to notice the difference IMO.  Looks very well done to me. :salute:
