- Using the Screwdriver/Pry Tool: If needed, position the extended backspacer (lanyard hole area) into the head of a compatible slotted screw or use it for light prying tasks.
- Closing the Blade: To close the knife, firmly push the liner lock (the metal bar inside the handle that rests against the blade’s tang) to the side, disengaging it from the blade. Once disengaged, carefully fold the blade back into the handle until it is fully closed and secured.
