Pocket Knife Making 08 14 2025

 I wonder what the "jackknifing" effect failure rate would be if a folding knife had both a liner lock and a lock back at that same time?

I would think that would be a lot harder to collapse under pressure than just one or the other.

A folding knife usually takes two hands to close it anyway.

But the idea of a folding knife that is harder to "jackknife?"

So what would be the difference in force needed?

A. Lock Back.

B. Liner Lock

C. Lock Back plus Liner Lock?

And is there a technology out there that has virtually solved this problem already?  I haven't researched it.  To really believe that a company had solved the issue they would have to guarantee it?  But I don't know anyone has.

You would think that the military would have addressed an issue like this a long time ago and slam dunked it done.

Is there a Non cumbersome technology that exists today?  Perhaps the frame of the handle forms a channel along the folded out blade?  I don't know.  And I don't know of trade publications to research it.

An out the front won't will it.
