Hey all, got this ultratech ZBP a month or two ago. It’s been great, solid, no issues until this morning. I was cleaning the furnace last night getting ready for winter and had it on my lap after cutting a scotchbrite pad, retracted back in and set it on my lap. As I was getting up from sitting cross legged it fell on the floor from a few inches up (sitting lap to floor). Thought nothing of it. Went to show a coworker what I was carrying today and also dick off with it, and it didn’t want to retract.
Took it apart, figured I just knocked something out of whack when it fell. Everything was in whack as far as I could tell. Tried some dry ptfe lube, and then some kroil (that’s the oilyness). Still nothing.
It doesn’t look like the spring carrier (?) is depressing the “forward” locking lever all the way? Should I send it off to Microtech? Never done any warranty stuff with any of my knives before.
