Does this have a lock to secure the blade in place? Thanks

No. Also you have to make sure you press down on the clear plastic part that sits over the paper near the blade to hold the paper in place or it won't cut straight.

No. The jar sits atop the blade area but doesn't lock like many blender designs. We've never had the jar tip over or experience this no-lock design as a disadvantage.

If you mean does it have a lock button or latch of some kind, then no. You can flick it open, although it's stiff enough that it won't happen on accident. Once the blade is fully open it locks into place for cutting. Then there is a small metal piece that you push with your thumb and the knife can be put back to its carrying position.

It has a liner lock bud. Right below the blade there should be jimping, press it in towards the body of the knife then the blade or hook should allow to fold.

Yes. It has a hard plastic insert inside the sheath to protect it from the blade.

There is a thin piece of metal that slides over to lock the blade in the open position. To close you will slide this thin metal lock back to the side, out of the way for the blade to close. It is located in the index finger groove of the handle. If the knife is open and you look at the handle where the blade goes when closed, you will see it in the way of the blade closing. Just push it over out of the way and the blade will close easily.

Yes, it has a lock on it to prevent it from opening. A very good knife, especially for the money.

No, you have to open the multi tool and lock out the blade.In order to close it you have to push in the handle tabs to release to locking mechanism.

Yes. The lock is the dark slider at the right end of the knife in the illustration. It is spring loaded, and unlocks only when the slider is pushed forward or backward. As long as no pressure is applied in either direction, the blade is immobilized, and cannot move.

It does have a liner lock mechanism in place and it works great. Fast opening and closing. The thing is huge though but the wood on the handle is beatiful and the blade is carbon steel.

It does indeed! Inserting and removing blades is as simple as rotating the lock 90 degrees to seat or unseat the blade. Very easy and fast. Have had this saw for a few years now, and it's a great tool.

No. But the blade is secure when closed. It never opens on me on accident being an open assisted knife.

Yes is does, one finger extends the blade into locking position. For the price you get what you get but I like it.

This is a manual blade (no springs or assisting mechanisms) for both the main blade and seat belt cutter. There is a thumb stud for both the main knife and seat belt cutter that are relatively flush with the main body of the knife with a indent leading to it. The blade does not "lock" in the close position, but does lock in the open position. The locking mechanism is linear and respective to the blades side (the main blade and seat belt open in opposite sides).

Yes It stays In place. I have had mine for about a year and the blade still locks in as tightly as when I got it.

The knife opens up and yes the blade locks, to close you push a small button like device and you can snap the knife closed. I use mine for trimming black powder wadding material for my .50 Hawkins rifle. The knife stays sharp, it's the right size with gloves on to use and the lock can be pushed with gloves on also. Being black it doesn't shine scares the animals.
