Review: Cobratec Small FS-3 OTF Knife | BladeForums.com
WEBOct 5, 2022 — Aug 20, 2015. Messages. 946. Oct 4, 2022. #1. Review of the Cobratec Small FS-3 OTF Knife Pics at the end! A couple of years ago, I started seeing Cobratec knives pop up in many of my local gun shops and outdoors stores. They were placed right next to the Microtechs, so I assumed they were outrageously priced and never gave them …
Microtech OTF Replacement parts - BladeForums.com
WEBMessages. 58. Dec 14, 2021. #5. Every 6 months or so I have to take my Ultratech apart and clean due failure to fire. I know the springs are easy to lose and despite being careful they disappear anyway. Last year I lost the spring under the button, it works fine without it. I looked high and low and could not find a replacement.
Lightning OTF: A realistic review. - BladeForums.com
WEBApr 10, 2007 — Nov 29, 2009. #1. Ok, I decided that with all the talk about the taiwanese Lightning OTFs, I'd give one a review. Before I go over this knife in detail I want to stress that although I despise the fact that the manufacturers have copied someone else's hard work and produced a cheap copy of a knife that I admire, I will remain objective and ...
Are there manual OTF knives? - BladeForums.com
WEBJan 18, 1999 — The Christy knife is a manual OTF. My Dad used to carry one. It's a very small clip point, a keychain knife really, with a skeleton handle. The blade slides forward and locks in closed, partially open, and fully extended positions. The Cold Steel ER-1 is a small mini-serrated sheepsfoot manual OTF with a Zytel handle.
Measured OTF blade slop? - BladeForums.com
WEBJul 14, 2011 — An OTF blade touches the handle in very different spots while in use vs when firing/retracting. If the chassis is worn and sloppy from deployed use, the blade would actually be less likely to rub because the track that guides the blade would remain tight. The sloppy end would actually give the blade more clearance.
Recommendation? Blueprints/Drawings for the actions of OTF knives
WEBJul 19, 2018. #2. I have a machinist friend who is making them. He took a cheap OTF and took it apart. He programmed his CNC mill to make new and better parts. After about ten generations of improvements he understood them well and had a good OTF. Some of the Auto Knife books have drawings and such, but they won't tell you wat a disassembled ...
Microtech OTF best Blade Style - BladeForums.com
WEBFeb 27, 2014 — Aug 21, 2021. #4. One of the benefits of an OTF is that you can have a double edge blade completely enclosed in the handle. My only Microtech is a Combat Troodon, and I opted to go with a double edge, straight edge on one side and serrated on the other. The straight edge is opposite the switch, and the serrated edge is on the side …
1 Year OTF EDC Challenge/Review (BM 4600 DLC Phaeton)
WEBMay 20, 2012 — The Phaeton is my first quality OTF and I want to see how they are as an edc knife. The consensus on most of the threads I have read seem to be that OTFs aren’t the best for edc. I want to see for myself whether this is true, or just people parroting what they have heard others say. So, I have decided that I am going to make the Phaeton my ...
Otf vs auto for daily use - BladeForums.com
WEBFeb 25, 2016. Messages. 5,382. Jul 2, 2020. #2. OTF’s are undoubtedly super fun to open and close, but I personally prefer the LUDT for day-to-day tasks, primarily because it’s just a more useful blade size and shape, and super thin behind the edge. The LUDT also carries very well because it is light and slim in the pocket.
OTF KNIVES, PRACTICAL TOOL OR GADGET - BladeForums.com
WEBApr 30, 2020 — They certainly fall into the "you get what you pay for" realm of things. A $40 piece of garbage is a $40 piece of garbage. When you step up to the triple digits, the world opens for you. I have gotten spoiled by my OTF Microtechs. Draw the knife, cut the thing, retract the knife, pocket the knife.
