Boker Plus Strike Tanto Automatic Knife vs Boker Dessert Warrior Kalashnikov

I only have one complaint and it’s kind of a big one for me. First week of owning it I dropped it in a pile of dry dirt. I blew it clean but small dirt particles got stuck between the blade. When opening the blade it made it stick a little so it wasn’t a quick open anymore and every time upon opening you can hear the dirt particles wedged between the blade and the tracks scraping and grinding

It leaves my hand in the direct line of fire of this giant blade. I wish it had a lock similar to the benchmade axis lock where I could keep my hands awy from the danger of this huge blade closing. That being said, I haven't come close to cutting myself.
