ABSTRACT:
An elongated knife handle is provided with a blade carrier with a thumb button extending through a longitudinal top slot in the handle and is depressed for manipulating and latching the blade carrier in its sheathed and unsheathed positions. An integral upstanding abutment which extends higher than the thumb button is provided adjoining the forward end of the top slot and extends rearwardly along both sides of the forward end of the top slot to form a recess in which the thumb button is nested when it is in its forward or operating position to prevent the accidental unlatching of the blade carrier during heavy cutting operations.
