I am pretty new to the world of better knives, so have limited experience. I have the A-F Folder, and I don't see what the problem is with the liner lock. The lock looks like it makes contact with about 1/2 the width of the back edge of the blade, providing more surface contact than I see in a number of more expensive knives I own. What am I missing here?
