So just to understand this right. You want the locked in the closed position just like the open position. And you want scissors in place of the blade? Does it have a liner lock now as I'm not familiar with the octane.
if the sliding system is like all the other gerbers where two springs engage on two notches at the end of the channel, then adding two notches at the bottom of the channel for those springs to engage would do the trick. Maybe I can borrow Beerplumbers octane and see if I can finangle it.

Yes it is- it's been done before by someone here.The Surge also has liner locking scissors, but probably a lot cheaper and easier to tear apart a Wingman. Def
The gerber pivots are sealed with some super human thread locker. I've broken two bits trying to get open a Crucial, even after super heating it with a torch for over a minute.
okay I can donate, I think the octanes on sale at Canadian tire again ($35?).
