Sounds like a great knife KC. Couldn't ask for more from any knife. Sad that it is not that easy to find a comparable replacement.

this one is now on pension....

it was my daily pocket-partner for almost 20 years and survived :   1 police arrest,  2 jobs,  3 houses,  4 dogs,  5 cars,  6 phones  and 7 lunchboxes

it was (mis)used as hammer, screwdriver, castingweight, doorstopper, axe, canopener, tentpeg, spear, chisel and more...

dishwashers, seawater, extreme cold, sand, washing machine, or a 12 meter drop on a concrete floor never were a problem... even when a van drove over it by accidence it did not scream !!

i took it to fancy hotels, fishing trips, bbqs, mountains, beaches and it even was on stage with the band more than once

it is bumped and scratched a little (this is the most undamaged side)  but still 100% ok   no movement  in lock or washers and even the inlaid rubber still feels like 25 years ago

comfortably flat, light, strong and shaped so that it would never damage clothing ....  carried bottom-down and with the clip positioned on the axle  so that the knife sticks out a little ( i personaly like that more than" deep inside " clips )

as i said... this knife is now retired..... before it goes bad ( the lock reached its final position )  and i thought that a buck vantage would be a nice replacement but....... i took that back to the shop within a few days ( dull. bad centered and a lot of space )  NO COMPARISON

at the moment my edc is  the new lionsteel TM-1  and sometimes my mcusta tactility  but i would never try to abuse them as i did my old crosslock  !!!   ( why is a knife like this discontinued ?)  buck still makes the 110  so why not this superknife ??  ohhh i know ...  if they all keep on going for 20+ years they dont sell enough   :-)

 BUCK CROSSLOCK 180.... RESPECT !!
