Defcon Knives Fulcrum Lite - the leverage lock is cool but I can't recommend the knife

I bought this knife for the leverage lock mechanism. A leverage lock is the spawn of a liner lock + button lock. It's cool and it's better than a button lock IMO.
However, this particular knife has major flaws. It may all be due to the micarta scales. The knife feels very flimsy but beyond that, the pocket clip is STRAIGHT UP UNUSABLE because a single screw just does not cut it.

I greatly like your suggestions on quality blade deals. I bought the Fintiso you suggested. Surprisingly Excellent knife.

Revive model by Defcon is legit. Good steel. Great size. Do a review please.

I have to disagree with you on a couple points with this knife. I have the same model in brown micarta. There is some slight flex in the handle but only where the liner lock cut-out is located. This is similar to other micarta handle knives with liner locks. Yes the clip is not great and should have two screws, but I haven't had a problem. Lastly, the front flipper tab works fine. It's best used for the "reach-around" method. This knife costs about 40 and IMO it's a good deal on a budget knife with a interesting lock for that price.
