Re: Burned Edges....

I personally have a Rex 45 Para 3 that dulled after cutting 3 flaps off a box, any further attempt to cut the cardboard just resulted in tearing.

Re: Slysz Bowie detent

Its not supposed to be flat! when you had it apart did you notice how sharply the recess in the tang was cut? My coworker's Sage 1 was not opening smoothly and the reason was that the detent hole was so sharp that it shaved the top off of the ball... we polished the ball and chamfered the hole, the...

Slysz Bowie detent

Picked up my slysz Bowie for edc today for the first time in quite a while and I noticed that the detent is significantly weaker than I remembered. I can get it to open just by shaking it now. I took it apart and took a look and the detent ball looks flat. I'm assuming this isn't usual but maybe I'm...

Re: Para 3 Defect?

I'm glad someone chimed in and explained things. I have the blurple and cruwear para 3 and they both have this feature. The lock stick when I get it is from flicking the knife hard vs a smooth engagement with my thumb as I believe you are supposed to. No defect and a pretty cool feature to me

Re: Para 3 sprint has dropped!

I don't know about the standard model but I have the blurple and the cru-wear and the cruwear is about a 10th of an Oz heavier than the blurple. It doesn't sound like much but it does lend to the cruwear feeling a lot more solid.
