Is the emerson opener n karambit legal to buy from abroad into UK?
Any problems with the liner lock? Heard a lot of them had issues with lock failure.
I collect a few folding knives if look at my channel you will see. I bought a karambit to see what it was all about.
It was just a budget one. But I'm not sure I am keen on them. They are like marmite.
I have the 478 version. It is pretty much a good close range SD knife that I use in combination with a CRKT M16-04SF. In fact I like it so much I'm going to get a 599 version and trainer.
Yes, I do carry and use for SD purposes although only when at my second home in SE Asia where things can get seriously violent in places (no I am not capable of just "running away" either).
For the stiff deployment there is an easy solution that I use on most of my folders. I completely disassemble the knife then with a dremel type tool and fine polishing compound I lightly polish/smooth all the bearing surfaces especially the side ones where the washers are. When assembling again I lightly(!) coat the surfaces with either teflon or moly grease depending on the washer materials. After that the knives are generally super smooth and don't need any extra oiling etc. for quite a long time. That all takes about 30mins at a snails pace.
Is it legal in UK?
nice video with nice music 🙂
