Here’s another transverse pivot side folder, or however you would describe a knife…
…That folds along the axis opposite of what we’re used to.
Special mention goes to the bonkers locking arrangement on this knife as well. The filigree leafy thing in the middle is not just decoration; it also acts as a cam, literally spreading the prongs of the handle apart to release the blade:
Note the gap visible when I do this. The heel of the blade rests in a pair of slots machined into the handle prongs, so it won’t move unless they’re spread apart.
Opening this with one hand is possible, but definitely takes some practice. It’ll open either way, as well, and nothing is stopping it from being flipped open the other way except the pocket clip. Lefties can reverse the clip, or anyone eschewing the clip at all to use the included breakaway lanyard thingy (which goes in that hole on the tail) can just remove it entirely and then you’ll be able to spin the blade around a complete 360° if you feel like it.
