I haven't had any problems, but I haven't used mine much. It's not the best quality knife I own and I could see where the locking mechanism would malfunction and become a problem.

There is a little groove with ridges in the area it closes shut at. It is quite tough just an FYI but I suggest using your thumb and you just pull enough on it until you can pull the blade From the locking position ( its easy to see when its unlocked) Then voila!!!

You have to follow the instructions on using the knife. The lock is there for safety. That said it's not "broken". Went through that too - who reads manuals right? :)

Never had this problem. I'd check to make sure blade is engaged and take battery out & put it back in. May have just jiggled loose.

I been having a hard time using mine. It jams easily. The blade stops during cuts.

I assume it's locked up also? I'd contact the maker. They seem concerned that their product works well. They responded to my review about the poorly designed locking mechanism so they might just send you a replacement. Worth a shot!

Same here. It worked fine for a while, and suddenly, the blade wouldn't go back down. Can't figure it out.

Yes the blade locks..... unfortunately the blade lock goes to far and now it won't close anymore.

The lock should in time loose up a little but the lock is supposed to be tough. The entire purpose of this knife is the tough lock and so it doesn't give out easy n break. Sounds fine to me, mines the same way n I'm happy with mine and I'm a knive enthusiast. My opinion knife works the way it should

Bought mine a year ago and the only issue i had which is minor the rubber on the side of the knife has come a little loose or separated. Still no big deal.

I got it, too, but didn't like it. The closing of the blade is accomplished best by the use of a strongthumbnail to prise away the locking tab, while you're folding the blade shut. Good luck with that...

This has liner lock which is located in the blade cavity ( where the blade suppose to fold) .Move this liner lock towards the pocket clip side and fold the knife to close.some time the liner lock gone to far at the time of open in this case you may have to use some tool to push it back toward the pocket clip

I just looked at my cutter, and I don't understand how the blade "jams", unless it has been bent; there is nothing for it to hit, or jam against, unless something has changed shape. How long have you had the Stik? You might contact Fiskars. They have been very generous when I've spoken to them. If you need a replacement blade, they should be able to help you, if the movable blade is bent. If the stationary blade is the problem, I'm not sure if it can be replaced; the movable blade is held by one bolt, so I assume it would be an easy replacement.

I have not had that issue. Stays sharp until I use it for chopping wood or something.

Not sure what you mean. I have not had any problems in opening or closing the blade. The lock is safe and secure (very strong) and when I pull back the ball/lever the blade can safely be folded.I have not felt the ball/lever to be abnormally tight nor has itchanged in feel over the time I've had it (about 4-5 months).
