ABSTRACT:
A folding knife has a U-shaped body between the ends of the legs of which a blade is mounted for pivotal movement about an axis, beween open and closed positions. One leg is shorter than the other leg, and that one leg has a laterally extending protuberant portion having a hole centrally therethrough and bevellings on opposite sides of the hole. On that same side of the blade, the blade has two projections spaced equal distances from and on opposite sides of the pivotal axis of the blade, that distance being the same as the distance between the hole and the pivotal axis. As a result, the projections on the blade slide up the bevellings with a cam action upon approaching the open or closed position and snap into the hole. The sides of the projections are inclined, so that there is a cam action by which they can snap out of the hole when moving from one position toward the other position.
