Product Description
Main Knives German Line Linerlock (1200) 3.5" Drop Point 440A Satin Plain Blade, Black Wood Handle, Reverse Liner Lock
The German Line series, featuring drop point-style blades, exemplifies sophistication in pocket knife design. The slender blade facilitates optimal use of the cutting edge’s foremost point, making it superb for everyday tasks such as opening packages or trimming materials along a ruler. The handle is designed with a broader end to ensure a comfortable and stable grip.
Safety is paramount with these knives, thanks to the reverse liner lock mechanism which prevents accidental closure during use. The knife opens smoothly using both hands via the nail nick on the blade. This reliable locking system—a modification of the standard liner lock—is integrated directly into the wooden handle and automatically engages when the blade is deployed. Unlike typical liner locks that require outward pressure, this mechanism requires inward pressure towards the center of the knife for disengagement. This design secures the blade diagonally, offering enhanced protection against unintended closure.
Overall, this robust and durable locking mechanism stands out as one of the most effective and secure found in folding knives today.
