Pull Back knives

Hi all!

There's a new line at SKM: the Pull Back knives. To open such a knife, you just pull the backside, while you push it to close the blade.

They come in several different handle fashions, take a look here.

They were out in the 90s and they probably have all those parts left over and are simply getting rid of them.

Wouldn't those have to be opened with twice hands? If so, doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose?

Mr.Jerrbear,
You are correct and it dosen't make sense.

Some of these were mechanical opening not spring opening, some used a spring. The mechanical ones were a way to avoid "spring opening" laws. The ones that had a spring had the novelty factor. I'm sure the demise of Edgeco left some knives without a buyer. I have no idea if these are spring or mechanical operated, but either type has the novelty factor

If they are still stamped Edgeco they will also appeal to collectors of Edgeco items.
