A very well made knife with a couple flaws
First and foremost, the detent... It feels real strong when you flip it, and the action is very snappy... But unfortunately it still can be whipped open without the flipper. Takes some effort, not saying it's going to open on it's own or anything, just that it is an issue of you life in an area with "gravity open" laws. I've done all the normal checks and tweaks and can't get it any better.
The second issue is 2/3 of the holes in the backspacer were drilled too large, so alignment of that piece is relying on the tightness of those small screws instead of sitting tight on the spacer pins like it should.
Aside from those two things (that many people won't ever care about) it's a really nicely made knife.
D shaped pivot with matching hole to keep that logo aligned. Perfect polishing and chamferring on the liners. Skeletonized liners. The milling that was done on the G10 is done nicely, though I think it needs more texturing for grip Blade centers perfectly, no flaws in the grinds, nice and sharp out of the box.
Honestly, I don't even mind when I have to sharpen a new knife to get a satisfactory edge, but i have to say that Bestech has the most consistently good edges from any manufacturer I've bought multiple knives from
