I don´t think the lock changed much over the years. On older knives (and a few newer ones) there´s no locking in the closed position. I also noticed hat some rings, but not all, have the size number stamped in.

Thanks for the heads-up, ThePeacent and Vovaster. :cheers:

I like how the old Virobloc locks open both ways. Not sure what the idea behind this new design is? :think:

Vovaster, how did you manage to break off that piece? It must have taken some force!

Yeah, some force was attached. Because this lock do not fix the blade well, like in movie some posts   before.
