You should wait until the liner/framelock is completely out of way of the blade before you move the blade to close it, to prevent both stress on the tang of the blade and slicing off a sizebale chunk of your thumb...
The Seb is smooth now but that Tuf Glide stuff doesn't last long on it. You need some thicker grease type lube for it. I suggest the CRK lube they sell on the site, it's only $10 and it lasts like 2-3 months. When I used the tuf glide it only lasts a week before it dries out.
Its meant to dry out. The fluid is only a "carrier" of the "dry lube". Once the carrier fluid evaporates it leaves a deposit of dry lube on the surface. It shouldn't take more than an over night for it to evaporate fully. I suggest cleaning, lubing, working the pivot a few opens and closes and then letting it sit over night.

I have both the large and small Sebenzas. I was thinking of picking up the Military. Which do you prefer? Thanx for the vid!

You have the best, why do you need something else?
Military is too big, ugly, with horrible screws that sometimes don't work.

When I used the tuf glide the blade opening got rough the next day. With the CRK lube it lasts for several months. Just my preference.

Good deal. I use Tuf-Glide, it works great for me.
Might give the CRK lube a look though.
