How to Close a Pocket Knife:
Locate the Side Spring Bar: Look for a thin piece of metal inside the handle with bumps along the top.
Push with Your Thumb to the Left: Apply pressure to the side spring bar, pushing it to the left.
Begin Folding the Blade Closed: Carefully fold the blade closed. Make sure your hand is clear of the blade's path.
What is a Liner Lock?
A liner lock is a type of locking mechanism found in folding knives. It uses a thin metal liner inside the handle to secure the blade in the open position.
When fully opened, the tension causes the liner to slide inward, making contact with the end of the blade.
This contact ensures a secure position, firmly holding the blade in place and preventing unintentional closure. The mechanism relies on this tension to maintain a stable and locked position while the knife is in use.
