Extremely nice knife with 1 fatal flaw - Gerber Mini Covert Auto Automatic Folding Knife

The blade and the handle of this knife are extremely nice. The safety button locks positively. The action of the knife is quick and snappy and the button does not stick. It’s small enough to fit in a girls pocket but big enough to fit in a man’s hand. However The knife blade tends to bounce back off of the stop pin. And as the spring tension stops when the blade reaches about 90° The blade is not completely straight when the lock button is released causing the knife not to be locked out. this happened approximately 30% of the time I attempted to tighten the tension screw but the problem persisted. I return the knife as an automatic knife that doesn’t lock out kind of defeats the purpose. But if you have the time patience and know how to find the sweet spot where the knife will work reliably it seemed like a very well-built knife.
