Do the blades pop out and lock without opening up the tool?

No they don't. You have to open the tool to use blade. But it do have lock.

No they don't. You need to open the tool and expose the pliers. You can then choose which blade option your would like to use. All blades lock once extended.

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.

No, blades don't retract or detach. When it lights up it looks like the light is coming up out of the handle, but the whole plastic piece is there.

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.

No, I don't think so. These blades come off when you push a button on the unit. They are much easier to use than taking them on and off with a screwdriver.

There is a ridged thumb lock you slide over at the base of the blade. I like that it has slight stop to it when flipping the blade closed.

Hi Janet......all you have to do is push the orange circle up towards the blades and that should do it. Then you juts push the circle towards the handles to lock.

There is a spring in the handle that will lock the blade in the open position. It is located in the cutout area of the handle. Just push the spring to the side and the blade can then be closed into the handle. It is similar to a knife which the blade is locked in the open/extended position.

None of the tools on this knife are locking . The marlin spike does have a very strong half-stop to help prevent folding the spike on your fingers .

Yes, when the blade is opened it is locked in place by a spring loaded tab that rests against the base of the blade. It is released by a side movement with the thumb, not too unique as many brands have this feature.

No it does not have a lock. The handle is rivetedto the blade pretty tightly thought.

No, but i had no issues installing the lock without the tool. S&G; has a video on youtube that will help with the install.

Yes. Thumb tip lock release in handle. Easily opened and closed with one hand. My second one. Lost the other. can't beat it for the price.

No, they do not. It's a good solid knife and I've had no problem with the blades closing unexpectedly, but they do NOT lock.

Very carefully, really when you push the locking mechanism to the side I just close the blade slightly to keep the lock out of the way then with other hand close the blade. I'm sure you are doing the same. They should have a design with a button on the outside.

The knives and the saw unfolds and locks in place and to unlock it you push a tab like a frame lock and fold them in. The other tools unfolds and locks in place and the is a button on the ends of the handles that you push in and fold the tools in. Solid no play with any of the tools or knives(serrated, non serrated, saw)

Yes. It locks quite well. There is a lock release just below the blade on the inner portion of the knife when you want to close it.

The blades simply slide open and will lock into place. You can do this one handed although it's quite difficult, which is why I always do it two handed. Once the blades are open and locked in place you can put them away with one hand quite easily. Overall it's very simple to use and comes with instructions for those who are struggling.
