My Crow 2

#1

Post by TXZerb »

I love my Crow 2....but it has some issues. I am the 2nd owner, so I'm not sure what can be done.

This knife feels fantastic in the hand. I like the weight, the G10 is grippy, the opening action is smooth and the blade was well centered when it came to me.

The issues...

There was the slightest amount of blade play, so I went to adjust the pivot and it just spun. I tried to hold my thumb hard against the other side of the pivot, but I couldn't get it to stop spinning. I am not familiar with any knife where the pivot spins freely like that, so I have a feeling that something is wrong.

Secondly, the liner lock will not fully engage with the tang unless I flick it fairly hard to open it. If I open slowly, it barely catches, and has even failed several times, to the point that I can close it without touching the liner lock.

I want to love this knife even more, but for now it just stays in my Spyder Pack.
