How a folding knife works?
A folding knife operates through a pivot mechanism that allows the blade to fold into the handle for safe storage and portability. When the user pushes a button or uses a thumb stud, the blade is released from its locked position, enabling it to swing open along the pivot point. Once fully extended, a locking mechanism secures the blade in place, preventing accidental closure during use. To close the knife, the user simply disengages the lock and folds the blade back into the handle.
