I got my knife today. I know you can only expect so much from a sub $25 knife. But these are simple design problems.
1. The scales are a cheap synthetic plastic with a horrible pattern really rubs my fingers and hand. What would be wrong with a more comfortable pattern?
2. The knife is described as having a lanyard hole. But the tip of the blade extends right through the lanyard hole. Depending on how you lace the lanyard through the hole, either the lanyard prevents the blade from opening or the blade cuts the lanyard in two pieces when you close the knife. This is poor design and quality control.
You should be able to expect a name brand company such as CRKT to notice basic design errors. I'm glad didn't pay more than $25 for the Hammond Cruiser.

mrsoul1022Just got mine today too and noticed same thing as well. I ended up attaching my lanyard to the rear post cross bar and it works with minor blade interference, but must agree that a company like CRKT should catch something that fundamental. The knife is also hard to open, it seems to stick. The flipper mechanism is also structured so it’s difficult to get the knife to really fire out. The pressure is to excessive and the serrations hurts my finger. There are many things I do like about this knife, it has a nice big handle and when you get the blade out the overall feel with the finger grooves is very nice. Light weight for such a large knife, and the price is good.
