Re: 23TL
Until someone corrects me, I'm going to guess the TL stands for Thumb Lock. This is what they have to say about it and for anyone who hasn't seen the pictures of this unique new pattern, I'm posting pictures from the GEC web site.

Jerry, that 3rd picture down makes you wonder when to move the index finger?

Re: 23TL
Yepper. Open it like any knife and it locks like a lockback but to close it push up and forward on that lever. The lever is attached to the back spring, cams up and lifts the back spring up releasing the blade like would happen when you push down on a lockback release. I hope that makes more sense.
