Exceptions can always be made. In this case, because it has to do with safety, I think knife center should take it back. You have proof that you just opened it. I wonder if Blade HQ would have made an exception? 🤷♂️

I have this issue with my large Cold Steel Luzon which actually closed on me, luckily it wasn't too bad considering how freaking big the blade is lol

DUUUUUDE!! That Elementum is HORRIBLE!! That’s surprising man, I’ve never had an issue with a Civivi! Hopefully a “one off” issue

Since Knife Center said no…if there is no resolution from Civivi are you going to try to fix it?

Yeah, that's either a defect or a bad reassembly.

If Civivi doesn't make it right, that should be a fairly easy fix on a stone. I've had a few early lockups but never bad enough that I could actually close the knife like that.

How could I fix it?
@PoetFisherman Жыл бұрын
For early lockup, try bending the lock bar in slightly. If that doesn't work you could grind off a tiiiiiiny ( and I mean tiiiiiiiiiiiiny ) amount of the lock bar patch that interfaces with the tang of the blade.

@CentroidYT keep in mind this will likely kill your warranty. If you're going to do it though, definitely try bending it first

Try scratching a lead pencil on the blade where the lock bar connects

Nope mine sucks too. Easy to break the lock, pretty unsafe knife. Can't return them, both going up for sale on eBay. I need a reliable and safe knife.

Both elementum and the odium both have the same issue. A moderate hit on the spine and lock on both knives give way. I had it happen accidentally when dropping the open knife.

@@mazdaxc90 Im sure you could just pull it apart and stick something in between the gap of the liner overnight to stretch it out... or just bend it... But you shouldnt have to... its unacceptable from such a big company...
