• Using the Thumb Studs: Place your thumb on one of the thumb studs located near the base of the blade. Push outward and slightly upward. The SpeedSafe mechanism will assist in opening the blade until it locks into place.
• Using the Knife: Once the blade is open and locked, you can use it for various cutting, slicing, or piercing tasks. Always ensure a firm grip on the handle.

Using your thumb, firmly push the frame lock bar sideways, away from the blade’s tang. This will disengage the lock. Once the lock is disengaged, carefully fold the blade back into the handle using your other hand until it is fully closed and secured. Always keep fingers clear of the blade path.
