I got my Tactical Kwaiken today. The previous comments had me concerned about even breaking the safety seal on the box and just seeing what Massdrop would do about a poor quality product. Since the comments weren't about the Tactical version, I figured I would give it look. First off, it is an absolutely beautiful knife. All black. The silhouette of a Kwaiken is stunning. Second, the knife flips out just fine. Smooth. Lock up just tight and unlocking the blade is the correct pressure. There is no blade play at all. I couldn't be more please with this knife. I am curious to know if others find this true with the Tactical version.
