Its an interesting design but I can't figure out how it locks. Is it a slip joint, back lock, front lock. I wish I could play with one for a few mins.

Looks like the thumbstud is attached to the blue spring bar on blade, which lifts up and let the studs settle in the notch on handle and lock blade in place.

The clip is interesting too, press the lever and lift the clip up.

Yeah, the lock works backwards from anything else. The mechanism is on the blade and engages the the handle, as opposed to every other lock ever lol. It is a very cool design, and a great looking knife.

Sure looks interesting. Do they have a video anywhere that shows it in use? Wonder how easy it is to open and close.

I could see that lock getting gummed up right quick with regular usage...

Thoughts?

Interesting........the locking system here looks like a over-engineered and noticably more complicated version of Kershaw's Stud-Lock.

I think it looks to pretty to carry ....it looks like one you'd carry in a 3 piece suite going to the office but not one you'd carry out in the woods...... :D

That there is one reason like I like CRK's.  Yes, they do look more office like, but they are still tough enough to carry out woodsy tasks.  :)
I'm back!!
