I really wanted to love this knife and I haven’t given up on it but i’m not feeling great about my new Bel Air. The axis lock gets super stuck whenever I thumb flick it open. Also for some reason unless the Axis lock is stuck the blade has some back and forth wiggle. And to top it off it opens fairly easily with just a flick. I tried adding a drop of blade oil to where the axis lock meets the blade and it didn’t do much. What is my best move with this knife?

I have 4 Bel Airs that were all smooth as silk out of the box.
I’d inquire about an exchange or return to your dealer.
A new Bel Air should have none of the problems you mentioned.
You could certainly contact Kershaw, but for a new knife no way you should have to go through that trouble.
