I like Bestech knives. The company makes very good knives. The one that I received had good F&F. Blade centering was great. It flipped easily. Lock up was early. It was easy to make the liner lock fail. (None of my other Bestechs showed this lock up failure- Paladin, Swordfish, Warwolf, Beluga; to name several). It almost drops shut. It neatly slices printer paper. I plan to take this apart to clean and lube it. I hope that I find something that will allow me to improve lock failure.
