Can someone please explain to me how to open it?? I am completely new to the knife world.

You simply push down on the little metal "fin" in back, or up on the one in front -- After putting a little effort to move it, a spring assist will switch it open for you. Very simple and user friendly!

It is a folding knife. You open it like a regular pocket knife. I do not think it is a finger or thumb spring assist.. I bought a couple of these just for the heck of it. I was not particularly happy with it. It is not a good knife to do work with. But nonetheless, it is a sample of things out there. I think you were hoping for a spring assist, but the information I collected said it was a folding knife.

a little tricky to open. you have the kinda clear plastic on the bottom where you can see the blades and shavings. On top of that is a solid piece of plastic. Hold the back side of the sharpener and with the other hand use your thumb and press up on the solid black section of the sharpener and it will totally come off. the thin plastic that covers the holes might come off. (mine did) but it pops back on. hope this helps

I use an ultimate oil sharpening system from sharpening supplies. Com. My leek is my last favorite knife, I'm not sure if I got a funky one or what is deal is. It appears as though there is a dual angle beveled edge on the blade. I have been trying to figure it out but half way up the blade it changes angle. I use it as a letter opener now. I'm probably not much help when it comes to this knife. I bought a Kershaw salvo for$10 on ebay that I use daily and feel its a way better knife.

Your knife should flip open an lock immediately. With the knife in your right hand and the dimple sticking up use your index finger to open the blade. It should snap into place. Once the blade is open it should lock into place there's a small metal strip that holds it into place when open. Press the strip and the blad can collapse.

You just move the little blade lock in the cut out on the front bottom of the knife handle. It should move easily and close easily or maybe it's defective.

There should be a Lil rigid piece under the knife that you can push to the side and the knife can bend back in. My fiancee has his knife with him now so if I remember right its on the bottom. Up the barrel piece

It takes a little practice but works great. Just push the knife all the way back in your front pocket. That way the hook can catch and open the knife. Grab the knife and pull up with a quick motion and knife should open up.

I need to open and close my knife one handed. It didn't work for me so I sent it back. It was a shame because I really liked the knife.

Make sure that "Victorinox" is printed on one of the knife blade as in the picture. I have got knife that was very hard to open and it was not the Victorinox knife.

NONE of these answers help me close this knife. "thing between the knife"? WTH? Why bother to respond. "push away lock" "piece that clicks"?? Worthless guys.

In front if the sharpener, there's a rigid part. You press that part, then on both the back and the front of the dark blue part. then pull apart from the transparent blue part. Then it's open. I hope this helps.

K.D.- When holding the open knife with the blade to the left, edge down, you are looking at the "front" of it. From this view, just to the right of the hinge "button", find the small edge of metal that interrupts the curve of the handle. This is the lock. push it towards the "back" of the knife with your right thumbnail, and it will release the blade for closing.It will become obvious when looking at the knife from the "bottom."

Hold the opened knife upside down in one hand and with one finger of that hand unlock the blade. With your other hand hold the top of the blade between two fingers and slowly close it into the handle

Being it's a smaller knife, it's not as easy to flip it open by the spydiehole. But, just holding normally left or right handed and opening with your thumb is easy.

Where the blade meets the handle, there is a single flat piece of metal which acts as a spring and is embedded inside the handle just touching the base of the knife blade. You just need to push this small wedge of metal sideways with a thumb nail and the blade will close. It took me a little while to figure it out the first time also so don't feel too bad.
