For review = Navy K-631 , Lock Back Knife ..
This one was inspected by Australian Customs and came through fine , so if you live in the old Convict Colony , then this one should be fine to import .
When it came , it was nice and taught , [ tight without being overly so ] , and I have been playing with it for most of the week [ At Home ] , and after maybe 100 opening and closings , it has really smoothed out . It was a little gritty to begin with , but oil and play has smoothed it out .
Now this is a large pocket knife , a little larger than Im used to , but you can live with it . The belt clip is just so good , it really hangs on hard , to your pocket , or to your belt .
I was also impressed by the factory edge on the blade , it really cuts well . This knife may have had the best factory edge of any knife I have owned , and I own a lot of knives . It seems to have micro serrations , so while it shaves hair off my arm , I have better , sharper shavers , but this one really cuts . It cuts paper like no other knife I own , even ultra sharp blades can catch and tear paper , but micro serrations stop this from happening . You can feel them when you run your fingers over the edge , and they come from the way the blade is ground / sharpened . [ Im going to hate loosing them when I re-sharpen ]
To date I haven't tested the steel for edge holding , or re-sharpening .
But what I have so far is a really well made , solid folder that feels like a much higher priced product , I will be buying another Navy in this platform , there is a smaller one I have my eye on , Go Navy !
A very impressive knife for the money , and should offer NO import issues for Australians .
