a Kershaw Mini Cyclone (assisted open). From what I understand it is no longer in production.

I own 2 blur's, (see pg 6) but they are some of the best assisted openers ive ever used. You would not be disapointed.

The Cyclone is no long listed in the line-up on the web site or in the newest catalog. They had a lot of trouble with the on/off SpeedSafe assist opening function on this model. They probably got tired of all the warranty work, so they discontinued this knife.

That makes sense. Aside from the "speed safe" issues I had no problems. However it went to Kershaw 3 or 4 times to have that fixed. They were always friendly and fast though.

I have a fix for it. Let me know when and if you need it. I can send you the parts, and PM you the instructions. You just need a small torx bit. (#6 I think) My fix eliminates the on/off switch and includes a new "reaction bar". After the fix the speed safe is on all the time like most of the speed safe models.
