Congrats Chako! You have an original SuperKnife design with the screw that holds the blade in place. The original was eventually upgraded with a push down thumbstud lock mechanism. The newer SuperKnife 2 (SK2) design uses a thumbwheel stud that locks the blade in place. My original SuperKnife was probably my most carried, most used and most loved knife. I had the original but later upgraded to the pushdown thumbstud version. I still carry it wherever I go.
