I’ve got a really beautiful frost cutlery pocket knife i bought from my uncle at his thrift store for 10$ definitely worth the price

[BigShaneGillis]

Not only a great party trick and a good looking knife, but the blade on that thing is impressive…

[johnstaton]

Yeah I had one of those way back when should have kept it

My first knives were frost knives. 30 years later they are still goin strong. No longer my preferred daily users, but still spend some time in pocket or doing little camp chores from time to time.

It reminds me of the first iterations of the balisong. They opened the same way

[richarde]

Beautiful blade and a fantastic handle

[r.rodriguez]

I feel like that completely eliminates accidental closure.

Knife looks nice ! Never saw such a mechanism it reminds me little on the böker buckle ! God bless !

Love my Frost Knife collection. Have at least 25 to 30, and didn't buy them for hunting. Sharp, just look at my thumb. 😉

Gonna be very cool looking when you mastered doing tricks on that knife

[blueeyeswhitedragon]

That looks like a Barry Woods swing lock folder...definately a collector's piece.
Also, classified as a "bali song" type knife in many Jurisdictions, so be careful if using as a EDC pocket knife.

That’s how I feel asking people to close my stilleto, they never guess the cross piece

[spiffypickle]

Id like to see a model that has a full tang when it flips around. Very cool

[Evanito]

I have a Beretta knife that works like that. I used it for years until the blade broke.

[johnstaton]

I used to have one with a black handle super cool

[arthurneddysmith]

It'd be nice if you mentioned (or listed) the make and model somewhere.

[fredminpin]

Pretty cool knife.
I own another knife that looks pretty mechanical cool and very secure in the open position, the only problem is that it similarly can't be opened one handed or takes some similar efforts to open, not to mention that it has some pinchy points & hot spots. Otherwise I like and think it's pretty cool like this one.
For info, a clone of Quartermaster Hawk design toggle lock.

I feel like that would be an awesome idea for a new knife design, ’in more modern materials, I like these type of blades also

[TristanHausler]

It's like a weird butterfly knife
