Bought as a step up from the smaller Bucklite which I really love. Great blade and as the name indicates, very light weight. The BUcklite II is also very sharp and very light, however...Two problems: 1) The blade, when extended, is a bit wobbly in its mount. Small lateral forces on the blade make it move back and forth a bit. 2) Although it has a strong snap, it doesn't pull tight against the handle when folded slowly. It DOES snap tight when "flicked" closed as one will usually do, but the lack of tension where it rests in the handle is concerning and I worry that after some use, it may open in my pocket just enough to cause a problem ("rip, ouch!"). Time will tell. I won't return it [...] Unfortunately, I'll probably not carry it for general use (as I had intended) but instead keep it in a pack, glovebox, or drawer.
