I echo your statements guys. I think a full warranty on a folder is asking too much of any maker. That being said I will not be buying the rat trap folder as some on their website have pointed out is a tip down carry which I realy hate as I like tip up better for easier deployment.

I think they missed the mark on this one with tip down carry.

I don't think carrying a large fixed blade EDC is even a common practice not to mention its a pain in the butt. For bush operations however I never leave home without one personally.
