On the folding Karambit, I am concerned about the placement of the locking bar release in the center of the handle on the folding Karambit. In use, under pressure, how will this hold up?
The Front Locking System is a specially designed double-safety locking mechanism that requires 100% depression with an individual digit applied directly over the release bar. There is no other way to depress the mechanism other than this. If you are worried about rigorous use “accidentally” disengaging the lock and the blade folding on your fingers, remember that there are two pieces of interlocking S30V steel holding the blade in an open locked position with the additional support of an internal safety bar (also made of hardened steel), requiring 100% depression of the release bar with a single digit only. In order for the Front Locking System to fail you’d need to be able to break two pieces of interlocking S30V steel with your bare hands.
