ABSTRACT:
A finger actuator is provided for attachment on a conventional knife blade of the sort which is folded into the handle when not in use. The actuator comprises a resilient tool steel saddle arrangement fitted very tightly over the knife blade. A first plate extends upwardly from said saddle in a direction away from the edge of the knife blade and then extends outwardly in a direction substantially transverse to the longitudinal axis of the knife blade to provide a flat plate area against which the thumb pushes to open the blade while the other fingers of the hand hold the handle in the palm.
