What I was referring to was the knife unlocking when open. Not had on open in pocket however.

I loved the look of the 890 as soon as I saw it, bought one and thought it looked even better, still love it and would not part with it.

I had one and liked it ok. I'm usually not big on assisted openers, but the nitrous mechanism is pretty cool.

I agree with alot that has been said.
I think the handle feels flat out sexy.
smooth with no real hard edges. It deploys lickity split...suprisingly so the first few times. It had good-Lock-up once I adjusted the stop pin it had better lock-up. I did feel the need to be mindful of the cut out for the liner access. for that reason I would call it a bit more of a light to medium duty cutting tool.

I enjoyed the difference in the clip. I like that the knife rode l o w in the pocket.

I did decide to gift it to a guy that I worked with cause he was addicted to the Nitrous system.

I also had the blitz and believe I liked it more. For the size of the 890 I did not feel I could use it to it's fullest cutting potential compared to a knife with an axis like... like say a 615 or a 14205.
Where the blitz's size and access to the liner left me feeling like it's safty was proportionate to the tasks I might take on with this particular sized blade...if that makes since.

Here's a couple of pictures of my 890

i keep watching those 890 fault videos on youtube and im thinking this cant be real. those guys maybe chopped a few stones with their knives lol.

i dont like 1 thing about this knife. the back of the liner is not stainless and it gets rusty. well not the liner but that metal thing with the hole on it, i dont know how it calls.

that would be a back spacer..and I believe it is aluminum..
see yes, not details. but much lighter I would think.

Aluminum doesn't rust.

Definitely one of the best EDC i,ve tried . The 890 has all the trimings..light ,simple and fast.

I was meaning "Not Stainless" sorry and that dang auto word thing on my phone gets me sometimes I can figure out what I meant by, "SEE YES"
I think I meant ,"it did not mention what it was in the details on the BM site, but that it would have been lighter than a stainless steel 420 spacer"
