Sorry, I'm still gasping ...
LOL. OK I get it. I was actually more concerned with the locking mechanism or related pins that keep the blade locked open. More of the mindset of having a fixed blade to completely eliminate this concern, but sometimes fixed blades are not practical for EDC. Basically, if there is a possibility that there is a point on a knife that will fail when you need it most, then you should get a new knife that eliminates such possibility. Basically if I could walk around with a BK2 strapped to my forehead, that's the way I would go.
