For my money, one of the coolest small framelocks is the Kershaw Chive.
Both my wife and my daughter carry one.

I much prefer a frame lock or liner lock to a lock back in most lock blade knives. I think this is because I can operate most of them one handed.
I like the Kershaw Leek for an assisted opening frame lock. I also have a frame lock kit I built, which I really like.

I really like the Kershaws, have 1 Chive and a couple liners really like the AOs. One of my EDCs is a Scallion, great little knife.

Well, I have one of those somewhere around here. Last I saw a spring got in there somehow and it just jumps open now.

Hey Ken, what does ROBO POWER refer to exactly on that Camillus?
How does it work? Push button or just lock.

I have a couple of the Camillus "Robo Power" knives.
I believe it is Camillus' trade for some of their assisted opening knives.

orvet is right and thanks for jumping in to help. It would have been hard for me to answer. Your words said it right.(their assisted opening knives)
MITCH RAPP it looks like alphabet order to me.
