What
is Speed Safe? It is the
patented, assisted opening system built into many of Kershaw's best
selling Ken Onion knives. Speed Safe assists the user to smoothly open
the knife with a manual push on the blade's thumb stud or Index open
system. The Index Open uses a protruding portion of the blade's finger
guard to give the uses an alternate to the thumb stud. The user
manually pulls back on the protrusion with the index finger to open the
blade.
The heart of the Speed Safe system is
its torsion bar. Closed, the torsion bar helps keep the knife closed,
Preventing it from being opened by gravity. In order to open the knife,
the user must apply manual pressure to the thumb stud to overcome the
resistance of the torsion bar. After the blade is out of the handle,
the torsion bar moves along its half moon track and takes over. The
blade opens smoothly and locks into position.
