HOW TO USE:

• Grip the Handle: Hold the knife handle firmly in your preferred hand, ensuring your fingers are clear of the blade's path.
• Deploy the Blade: Place your index finger on the flipper, the small projection on the spine of the closed blade near the pivot.
• Activate SpeedSafe: Apply firm, quick pressure to the flipper in a downward or outward motion. The SpeedSafe mechanism will assist the blade in snapping open into the locked position.
• Confirm Lock-Up: Visually confirm that the liner lock is fully engaged, meaning the metal liner has moved over to secure the base of the blade, preventing accidental closure.
• Perform Task: Use the partially serrated blade for your intended cutting task. The plain edge is suitable for clean slicing, while the serrated portion is effective for fibrous materials.
• Close the Blade: When finished, carefully disengage the liner lock by pushing the metal liner (located inside the handle, on the same side as the blade's base) to the side with your thumb.
• Fold Blade: While holding the liner lock open, gently fold the blade back into the handle with your other hand until it is fully closed. Keep your fingers clear of the blade's path.
• Secure for Carry: Once closed, ensure the blade is fully nested within the handle. You can then clip it into your pocket using the reversible pocketclip for secure and convenient carry.
