Welcome to A.G. Russell Knives

“A.G. Russell FeatherLite One-Hand Knife K93-CTVG10 - I’ve been a long-time fan of A.G. Russell and have purchased nearly all my knives from you for more than 25 years.  About 18 years ago, I purchased a FeatherLite One-Hand knife from you and loved it.  The unique design and light weight made it a perfect gentleman’s pocket knife for light duty.  I still have that knife and include it in the rotation of pocket knives that I use daily. Recently, I purchased another One-Hand knife.  This time, I treated myself to the K93-CTVG10 because I love the way that steel can take and keep a razor’s edge.  Upon receiving that knife, I was very disappointed:  I found it very difficult to open with one hand.  My original On-Hand knife, by comparison, opens smoothly and reliably.   I don’t pretend to understand the challenges knife maker’s face today, but I’m disappointed that for the first time in my experience, A. G. Russell failed to deliver a user-friendly product.  Oh, I’ll keep the knife you sent me…I’m not interested in suffering through the time and energy to box and mail a returned item, without any certainty that replacement would adequately address the issue.  My real problem is not knowing how to avoid a problem such as this with any future purchases.   Thank you.
