I recently purchased a Rough Rider mini trapper and a Schrade 65th anniversary whittler.  The problem is that both knives are nail splitters. Benchmade blue lube did not help.  I put a piece of a business card in the knife slot for the Rough Rider.  This helped to open it but a tiny bit of the knife blade sticks out because the knife does not completely recede into the knife slot.

  Has anyone experienced a similar problem?  Further, is this a  problem for certain knife manufactures?  Finally,  are some knife patterns more of a problem (trappers etc) then others (peanut, toothpick, muskrat)?
