Unusual Switchblade Knife

[Miller Bro's]

Does anyone have any original paper, catalog cuts, etc., on this type of switchblade knife?

I would like to see it if you have anything.

For those who don't know how this operates, you slide the door on top to the side and the blade springs open, then slide the door shut to keep it open and use.

Pretty neat and not often found

Unique! It has that cool factor.

That’s neat, i can’t quite wrap my head around how it works but sounds cool.

It has to be a YouTube or Dropbox link for videos.

They're kind of like the Ball-Pull switches but come out the top as opposed to the side, it looks like.

On pages 286 and 287 of the book Switchblades exposed you can find info on these rare little knives.

Thanks for the info Mike.

Does anyone have the patent drawing?

[galvanic1882]

You're welcome, they are great little knives. I've looked for the patent drawing a while ago when I got the first one with no luck.

[Miller Bro's]

I will try to find it

What year is that switchblade book??

Going to have to find a copy of that one.

[galvanic1882]

Published 2015 and been out of print. I have been looking for one for a friend for 8 years with no luck

[Miller Bro's]

just my luck!

Hopefully some will turn up
