Fox 01FX116 Dragotac BB Orange Bastinelli Friction Folder

 Friction folders have increasingly gained in popularity. The extremely simple design of the mechanism does away with any form of locking or spring and features a freely hinged blade. The exposed blade spike when closed is not only used to easily deploy the blade, but represents a thumb rest when used, thus providing a level of operational safety similar to a lockable knife. Bastinelli applies this century-old principle to a modern day pocket knife that without question meets the demands placed on a modern day tool for everyday use.
