HELP ID THIS ONE PLEASE

I pulled about five of these out of the pile o' knives I'm selling and don't know what it is or should I say I don't know the style. Took me a while but I eventually figured out how to open it. They are Imperial's. KNow what the model # is?

I don't think they have a model number......I've always heard them called Trick knives.

What was the trick to opening it ??

It opens with one end or the other vertical and closes with the opposite end held vertical.

What was the trick to opening it ??

There is a little pin that moves freely about an 1/8 of an inch in the case. To open the blade you have to push the blade in, turn it on end and tap it on the table. This causes the pin to fall away from the "hook" on the blade. To close it you close the blade, hold it in and flip it on the other end. The pin falls and catch's the hook and keeps the blade closed.

Here's a quick video I made:
