My new Spyderco flippers
The Spyderco Advocate (top) and Mantra flippers. These are awesome with great ergos. The lock up on the Advocate is really strong, to the point where I have a sore thumb. Both of these have a wear in period before the action really smooths out. The Advocate is a little difficult to Spydie flick due to the recessed Spydie hole. M4 blade steel. Titanium handles. I recommend both of these. [EDIT - the Advocate has an orange peel finish that looks really cool and provides a bit more grip.]

Thanks.
I've been on a Benchmade kick lately. Took a while to get these shipped from GovX but they arrived the other day. An AFO II to go with my old AFO I and an Adamas, both autos.
Also saw a Pelican 1450 case from Nalpak with custom foam a while back and picked one up to replace the huge Pelican 1600 with pick n pluck I've been using for the past several years.

Love the case. Very nicely organized. I should do the same (although my collection is maybe a third of what you have in there). Congrats on the new Benchmade folders.

Nice collection. I have both you just got. The Adamas is a beast. I prefer the AFO II for edc.

Careful with the AFO it opened in my old partners pocket. When he reached in there he got 5 stitches.

Thanks. Fortunately I haven't had any issues with the AFO or the Stryker I've had for almost 10 years. I carry them with with the blade toward back of pocket just for that reason. The infidel though, I could see doing that and I think it has happened to me before

I haven't even come close to thinking my Infidel would fire. I guess the pockets of my skinny jeans aren't that tight. LOL

I think I had mine in my back pocket of my work pants. It didn't open all the way. I don't even remember if it actually happened just have vague memory of it.

They will open in your pocket.
I've done the filet o finger once. That was enough.

You have to explain to me how. The knife is not sliding up and down while clipped in the pocket. And when you lift it out, the thumb rests on the knife body between the pocket so the trigger barely, if at all, grabs any cloth.
I'll have to play with it tomorrow to see.

Middle of the night. Got up to take the dogs out to see what got their attention. Pulled pants off corner of the bed. Knife was in RH pocket. It clanked pretty good on the bed. When I pulled on the pants, I felt a small jab and scratch. Not thinking clearly, I jammed my hand in the pocket. My Benchmade had in fact opened and then tasted blood. I haven't tried to replicate it. I don't leave it in my pants pocket at night anymore AND I'm a lot more careful when I get up to orient myself/get fully awake n
That's like a pretty bizarre perfect storm.
Yeah. I concur.
I can say unequivocally that lancing your trigger finger but good is a sobering wake up.
A learning opportunity...
