I hook my thumb on my pocket opening and using my middle finger, "push" the knife up from the bottom through the fabric of my pants, kind of looks like I'm scratching my leg. When the clip clears the fabric the handle is already in the palm of my hand. Because the clip is never pinched, it...

Urban Question

Like many here, I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new leaf blade Urban. I was wondering if it can be closed the same way it is opened, by using the thumb in the hole or does the blade spring tension make closing it this way restrictive?

Thanks Daywalker, looks better than expected with no pointy corners to bite you when you reach in your pocket "past" the knife to get something else like coins etc.

Whenever I have a knife sent up I ask the seller to tighten up the pivot screw to the point of seizing the blade closed. If they can't flick it open they have to let it in. If it doesn't have an adjustable pivot I don't buy it.
