Academy carries this and for the price it seems a great value. Nice review!! Pete

@seti351 - I may have been spoiled by my small S30V Pro also, it came in decently centered and with good lockup and no real issues. After break in alignment was perfect, and it was "flippable". Interesting that yours was the best of the group too. Sounds like the Vantage Pro Small may be the one to get based on our two personal experiences with them! Based on my experiences I can certainly recommend th small Vantage Pro model.

great review/comparison, i mysleft got a big time lemon vantage small, never broke in to flip, lock up is terrible, clip broke off, i had bad luck with it, but im hoping they can redeem themselves with this guy, im willing to give buck a second chance, and really love the all blacked out design

@sevendays00 - I agree about the looks, I think the new Vantage Force looks awesome! Love the blade shape and black color. I may get the S30V model of it as well. I really wish they offered the smaller 2.75ish inch version also, but from what I can tell the "big" model is all they are marketing.

I haven't had a problem with the liner lock, personally, I just tested it some, and it has been doing fine for me. I did notice the flipper problem though, I need to flick my wrist some to get ti to open fully with that. Maybe after it gets broken in it will do better.

@PeteyP3t3 - I do like the knife. I think its actually a really good looking knife, and once broken in I don't see why it shouldn't be as smooth and flippable as my older model I show in the vid (and like so much). Its weight is the only real negative (in comparison to its size) that won't "break in"... and weight is such a subjective issue, it won't be a negative to everyone. I love the blade shape and color on this new model!

No prob opening this thing with the flipper, even without the wrist flick. Unfortunately mine came with the crooked blade that so many complain of. The oxide is already wearing off wear the blade interferes with the liner. Very sweet knife otherwise, and a great value.

@Michaelrwright92 - I bought a fullsize Vantage Pro and it's liner lock is perfect, no early/insecure engagement... looks like only the CHEAP version of the Vantage had that problem in my case.

I'm not sure if anyone mentioned this but you gotta use your wrist a bit when you use the flipper otherwise the blade won't go anywhere.

That actually looks better than the regular vantage. What was the price on that? Im lookin for a knife that goes well with dress pants, and the pocket clip will make it vanish in my pocket, and it doesnt look like a "tactical" knife. Thanks for the vid!!

@sevendays00 - I paid something like $37 on eBay a month ago. I couldn't find them anywhere else at the time... I believe they should be available from others by now, probably for less.

my vantage lock goes all the way to the right, and cant flip it open, and of course i broke the clip lol, and its gonna cost me more to ship to buck than i paid for the knife so its a write off, its too bad the blade is amazing, its a kickin around the shop knife now. Hows the force model now after use?
