I am pretty good at locks, but that one I do not get. In Fig 6, is the backspring coming out of the handle? How will the lock be actuated? I'm sorry if I am missing something.

I have seen it done on Cutlerylovers benchmade balisong. Smooth action all around because they did good prep work.

I eat six times a day. So half of this for breakfast and the other half after dinner. It's smooth, naturally sweet, convenient, and healthy.
