If you think a knife looks like crap you're, not gon na buy it. So i don't think it's that bad. I don't think it looks like crap. I think it looks dec...

The full size titanium handle is anodized in blue for a visually pleasing view, and the grooves are skeletonized to reduce weight for a balanced carry with the 3D milled one piece pocke clip (also of titanium I believe).

I mean i open a lot about. I just went through a move, so i i was doing a lot of boxes and that kind of thing - and so i kind of like this type of bla...

I usually have to relube the pivot on Kizer flippers, but this one flips perfectly without having to lube it. The detente is perfect-stiff but not overly stiff. The only slight bad part is that the anodizing is not even on the handle. It looks good, but it is not even

The G10 handle looks as sharp as the blade (the blade arrives quite sharp), is tough, and has a micro-waffle texturing that provides a good grip and a complimentary look to the matte finish of the blade. Nothing about this I don't love. The flipper works great and I love that it has a button instead of the more typical liner lock – so much nicer!

Lastly if your finger cant open a high end Kizer send it back. It's not a switchblade and one should never have to flip a good Kizer.

Just nice and straight straight back and forth. Now, when using a stone, that's a bit bigger! You want to do the same thing like the little stone, exc...

I could go on and on but the point is I feel I'm getting the most bag for my dollar from Kizer. Lastly if your finger cant open a high end Kizer send it back. It's not a switchblade and one should never have to flip a good Kizer. I've torn mine apart just to find the simplest of construction

I then ran it repeatedly over an industrial demagnetizer until a paper clip would not stick, and I was able to flip it open, although not as effortlessly as I would like. The Swayback is a well made and attractive knife at a good price point, so it's a shame that this issue can occur. Hopefully this will not happen to a lot of people.
